Scrolling Through the Park

Post by eshrink »

Input appreciated:

After I save an entry and return to edit, the word wrap has vanished. The screen acts more like Notepad than Wordpad after an entry is saved.

I would appreciate re-direction as to what setting I have incorrect that causes this to happen.

Thank you,

Hi!

Which browser are you using? Which serendipity version are you using? Are you using the WYSIWYG editor? Are you using an external WYSIWYG editor? Which template are you using for your blog? Are there any status/error messages before the content of your entry is displayed?

Is the extended options panel below the entryform maybe containing any error message that could push the content "too large"?

Regards,
Garvin

I found the problem, Garvin. It had to do with tagging the entry.

But I have a (somewhat) related question.

I have the blog set so that each entry has a graphic (me) on the right. I routinely add a graphic also on the left to go with the topic of the day.

Sometimes when I do so...either both fail to show or both show just partially.

Have you heard/seen of this outcome?

Hi!

I would need to see such an example to tell you what could happen there. I guess it's because of wrong HTTP paths or so, or overlapping/non-clearing HTML floats.

Best regards,
Garvin

I created an example to show you what occurs:

Hi!

Using Firefox 1.5, Opera9 and IE6 on my WinXP machine, I can see both graphics perfectly fine, in both postings...?

Hi Garvin:

I am using I.E. 7, and I see half of the right graphic and none of the left graphic. This occurs in one of four entries.

In either case, thank you very much for looking.

Hi!

Sadly I don't have IE7 available to test it with. :(

Best regards,
Garvin
