Dr_Evil_Mouse Posted June 15, 2005 Report Share Posted June 15, 2005 Ok, I am so meta-contextually confused... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del Posted June 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2005 When you quote someone is it still in a box?For me it's now a black dot, followed by xxxx Said:, then the quote underneath it... I find it very confusing... If it's not the same for everyone, then please bouche, explain why it's doing that for me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chameleon Posted June 15, 2005 Report Share Posted June 15, 2005 The New quote boxes do not delineate were the quote in question ends and the reply begins. By their nature they are unclear and hence not as good.Bring back the old! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoodRev Posted June 15, 2005 Report Share Posted June 15, 2005 I'm with guigsy, quote boxes look fine to me. I think there is a display discrepancy here, here's what it looks like to me: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del Posted June 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2005 I no longer have a quote box... What was the problem with the old quote box? It seemed to work perfectly well to me... I'm all about imrovements to the site, but I can't say I like this change... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouche Posted June 15, 2005 Report Share Posted June 15, 2005 I no longer have a quote box... What was the problem with the old quote box? It seemed to work perfectly well to me... I'm all about imrovements to the site, but I can't say I like this change... I just upgraded a few things and I may have to add something to the current stylesheet. They are different...but the dot thing is obviously incorrect and shouldn't look like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del Posted June 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2005 Not panicing bouche, this is the only site improvement I have an issue with... Everything else works great! I just thought it needed to be brought to your attention... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouche Posted June 15, 2005 Report Share Posted June 15, 2005 The wierd thing is that when I first opened your thread, I saw the problem, but only in your first post. I saw TheGoodRev's screenshot and his display seemed fine. Then, when I replied to you, mine was fine, and your original post was displaying the Quote box normally.

bouche Posted June 15, 2005 Report Share Posted June 15, 2005 how are you entering this topic? I'm seeing your problem when I do a search for 'quote' and then I click on your topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del Posted June 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2005 It's happening with every quote in every topic... Sometimes I click on the topics, sometimes I click on the last post in a topic... But every quote now has the black dot... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bouche Posted June 15, 2005 Report Share Posted June 15, 2005 first, refresh the page.if that doesn't work, I think you have to clear your cache. Your local cache may be using the old stylesheet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaidy Mae Posted June 15, 2005 Report Share Posted June 15, 2005 Oh sure, blame it on us Mac users! Del, you using Explorer or Safari? Safari doesn't seem to like the skank too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del Posted June 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2005 Explorer... Kaidy, do you know how I can "clear my cache" on my iMac G4? I've never done it in the 3 or 4 years I've owned it, I wouldn't even know where to look for that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted June 15, 2005 Report Share Posted June 15, 2005 Del, I use IE on WinXP, so this might not be the same, but try the "Internet Options..." item in the "Tools" menu. In the box that comes up, the middle section should be labelled "Temporary Internet files", and the middle button, "Delete files..." might do the trick.Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaidy Mae Posted June 15, 2005 Report Share Posted June 15, 2005 Del, I don't have mine with me, but give this a try: Edit > Preferences Double click on "Web Browser" until the list drops down Select "Advanced" You will see a box called "Cache"...click the "Empty Now" button Click "Ok" and then quit Explorer You may have to restart the iMac...just to show it who's boss.
