    Thanks for your insights. The source code is so many levels away from these errors, it's a rather daunting job to try and tackle them:-( But a potentially helpful line of approach in any case.

    For now, just upgrading the software to all the latest versions randomly fixed it! What goes wrong by itself sometimes goes right by itself :-)

      for starters try changing css class mw-panel from position:absolute to :relative

      It's causing this overlap of the menus

      Candyboxradio did it good tho. This is the way to the working HTML from the wayback machine so you can compare...maybe even copy paste all the lines in the main html minus the "wayback inserts"... right click and view-source on this https://web.archive.org/web/20190403144047/https://wikispooks.com/wiki/Main_Page

        Haha, awesome. I could never do that, mostly because I'd spend my days in prison trying to fashion knives out of toothbrushes and toilet paper. I was told that in coding interviews they make you do challenges on white board some times. First website I did was in 2007, and ever since then maybe two or three more sites, static html+css or wordpress powered.I did learn the basics of Javascript recently tho. It's like a hobby I'd love to expand.

          It's already there , violence and ism's. You wouldn't believe. I lived thru a civil war. A regular person, not a criminal, your neighbor, will walk into your home, slit your throat and rape your wife and daughters given the legal freedom to do so in a war setting. Sometimes I really understand why elites are trying to depopulate this planet.

          Fixed by a python upgrade! Don't ask me how.
