I just noticed a small bug in the quotes. The normal text (outside the quotes) remains small after the first quote. See?

Nope. It just seems that way. The only difference is that the selection boxes are smaller.

... only in some browsers.

My wife browses the DBB using Internet Explorer. For her, after a quote, the rest of the post appears bold. But it looks just fine for me in Mozilla, both on Windows and on Linux.

Looks fine to me on both IE6 SP1 and Mozilla 1.6 (soon to be 1.7 when I actually get around to installing it.

)

edit: My issue was sorta fixed... it was just text size set to "smaller", but this makes an easy way to demonstrate the gist of the problem in IE to just to change text size.

I just noticed this myself and came to check if anyone else did. With a quick look at an excerpt of the code (I arbitrarily added a few breaks so that it didn't scroll horizontally, but I don't know why it's double spacing)...

Code: Select all

</span><table width="90%" cellspacing="1"
cellpadding="3" border="0" align="center"><tr>
<td><span class="genmed"><b>Boo
wrote:</b></span></td>	</tr>	<tr>	  <td
class="quote">test</td>	</tr></table>
<br />
test</span><span class="sig"></span>
</td>
</tr>

... you can see (on the third to last line) an end to a span tag that either (1) was never opened (and probably should have been, declaring a text size perhaps?), or (2) was thrown across block-level elements like table and td, being started somewhere before the excerpt, which is a big no-no as well, losing text size information in the process.
