Happy St. Pat's Day

Posts will be green today, in celebration. The beer, however, will not. Also, I'll keep this post at the top all day, as a warning.

These green posts you speak of... do they only work in FireFox? I see no green, other than the main logo at the top of the page...

Only in Firefox?

Hmmmm...(firing up an IE window).

Apparently. Or at least not in Explorer (didn't try Opera). I just put in a font tag, color green. Perhaps IE doesn't allow HTML to override stylesheets.

Ahh... Now that I looked at the source, I see what you did.

Nope, I think that this is yet another case of IE enforcing strict HTML rules, and FireFox allowing bad HTML. The font tag is there, as a global change, but all of your style invocations are inside of that font tag, and override it as a local tag. I don't have the foggiest clue why FireFox WOULD allow such a thing, as it violates just about every concept that the tag structure is based upon.

Posted by John Breen III at March 17, 2006 08:45 AM

OK, I moved the tag inside the [div], and it seems to work now.

Posted by Rand Simberg at March 17, 2006 08:50 AM

Let me clarify... It's *allowable* to do that, but I'm not sure why FireFox displays it that way, because it really shouldn't happen.

Woo hoo!

Of course, in the grand scheme of things, it wasn't that big of a deal. But I thank you for taking the time to make it work. :-)

Three years ago, US Army troops were on the verge on invading
Iraq. I'm kind of surprised you don't mention that anniversary
