PT Post Shrinkage

Ummmmm.... how/why?

So,

I was sending some information to a member of mine via PT. But I doubt said member can read it. I sure can't! The posts shrink horizontally! See attachments.

So yeah...

While making this post originally in Vivaldi (which uses the chrome engine), I couldn't get the attachments to work. Had to use firefox to make this post. Odd. I will see if editing the PT in firefox makes a difference and report, maybe vivaldi/chrome support is simply broken? Maybe it is something on my end? Maybe rabid hamsters have taken over the internets? Who knows.

No, it isn't a browser issue, nor a PT itself issue. Somehow what I am posting is causing the actual frame to shrink. Very odd…. how do I stop this?

Hi,

Are you able to link me to a live copy of the topic? I think you deleted the one referenced in the URL.

I suspect the issue is inbalanced HTML tags in the Comcode content, potentially the result of some filtering bug.

Hi,

I just did an attachment test in Vivaldi and it was okay. However specifically on your site your overridden ATTACHMENT_UI_DEFAULTS has a couple of junk characters at the start, which I've just fixed for you.

I sent you a PT on my site Chris, so you could see it yourself. Would you want me to also copy/paste that PT here?

Ok so that's a curious one. The post contains an unclosed <b> tag. Due to HTML5 parsing rules this means many <b> tags get propagated all the way the down the rest of the document. That in turn breaks the layout because it basically turns into a column in the faux-tabular topic layout.

I have deployed a fix into your theme that works around the issue.
