Font size too big with no reason?

Font size too big with no reason?

Postby Duroland » Wed Feb 24, 2010 9:15 am

Hi, my thread has suddenly developed an "inflated" size of fonts (or it's just the posts' width?) :blink:

It seems the thing started with the post by Soviet Bloc and after that it remained so.

Now it looks awful and above all it destroys all my work in making posts appear as "professional letters". :(

What is it? What can we do?

EDIT: It seems it shifted the left border to right, under the posts' body...

There is a crapload of BBCode on that page, so the servers must be having a nervous breakdown.

You mean mine or Soviet Bloc's?

For I have no problems with mine in other threads!

All of it. Too much BBCode can mess up page layout due to the server having a nervous breakdown because of it.

mmm... but it was all ok with my part and it went south only with Soviet Bloc's post, which seems "minor" in terms of code. Or not?

SB's post may have just been the "Straw that broke the Camel's back".

I do believe that somewhere in the first post (OP) there is some kind of BB Code that conflicts another. Such as putting quote-bold-quote-bold. Good luck hunting, that's allot of code to go through. My best regards.

Please excuse my language, but holy FUCK is that a lot of BBCode! :blink:

Looking at the thread (I'm in class right now and in no position to try and sort through all of that code), my best guess is that the problem is a missing table-related tag in this post. Likely culrpits are a missing or mis-nested TR, TD, or TABLE tag that broke the forum stylesheet.

Okay, I went through all the code.

Good news: none of it is malformed.
Bad news: there's too much.

Remove one of the tables from the third post (the one with 4 tables) and it should be fine.

Thanks. :bow:

I was pretty sure my code was OK, for it worked perfectly before other posts (and I always preview before posting) :(

Length is a problem, as it's related to the storefront "richness". I'll try to sort out a solution.

EDIT: I broke down that post in two and it worked perfectly! "Size" was the culprit as per The Most Glorious Hack's suggestion. :bow:

Thanks again. :kiss:
