I don't see a vb error so i ask here, please move that topic to "vb errors" if it's one ;)

Why is my signature so broken? Iam using Firebird 0.6.1 right now, IE seems to do it right.

screenshot will be attached...

not broken. vb.com has the css for links setup so that any links are underlined.

Thats not what he meant. The underlines are too low when viewed in Firebird.

It would appear that your browser has cacked up the display of css.

Switch back to IE, the one thing MicroS***e has done right.

edit: yep, stacking up the links with size=1 breaks up the underlines in Mozilla ... more non-compliant coding? ;)

lmao...IE is horrible at CSS, Mozilla has much much better support for CSS.

Yea, good suggestion. :rolleyes:

It's a vB issue, not Mozilla. No other site has this problem that I've seen.

vB3 Beta 6, the post contains some links at size=1 stacked on top of each other and it displays correctly in Mozilla Firebird. So it's either a vB3 Beta 7 problem, or a problem with vB.com's CSS or something.

squall i just done a compare and the CSS is identical between the two.

I'm going to see if I can track it down now.

Well, i'm guessing Mozilla issue -- that is tied into beta 7 then.

Because in other browsers, i've never seen said problem, and neither have i seen it in the same browsers in past versions.

Linux but Mozilla Firebird creates the problem.

Ah, messed up for me too. Same with my signature. The underlines drop down into the next line.

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030728 Mozilla Firebird/0.6.1

Is that underline done via

text-decoration: underline;

or

border-bottom: 1px solid #xxxxxx;

?
<-- too lazy to check

It happens to me in Firebird across Windows XP/2003, with versions 0.6.1 and 0.6.1+ (Latest nightly build).

Not sure what the problem is, but it could be that after the [/size] the <br /> is full-size, and then for some reason it is making the underline appear that low across the entire line.

Not sure, but I think it's probably a Mozilla problem.

Was broken before, working fine now. Scott may have fixed the reason why.

Mozilla 1.5RC2 was just released yesterday (methinks) so either that fixed it or Scott did... too lazy to revert back and check though :p

Well i havent changed from this version of FireBird since it happened.

It was a ptoblem with vB and not Mozilla, or a problem with both since I have seen plenty of things like that work correct.

It might have been a problem with Mozilla then, coz it's still showing that weird behavior in Firebird 0.6.1...

Not for me.

Still doing it here. I'm guessing it's some code in vB that is bringing out a Mozilla bug.
