Entries In Modules Block Underlined

Posted: Fri Jun 06, 2008 7:06 am

All entries in the Modules Block on only ONE site are underlined. I did two things - Changed the name to Main Menu and changed Content to Information Center. Only that block shows underlined entries. Not confined to any one browser, all show the same.

Any ideas? More info needed?

Cheers, Jay

Probably a stray underline code bracket u bracket that didn't get closed. Maybe you deleted a previous closing underline code in doing the edits. Do a view source and you might see where the opening code is and where you need to close it. Just a guess.

My thoughts as well and going to take some time to peruse the source but really shouldn't be all that involved as I really didn't edit that much. But it doesn't take much to throw an error and in the least likely place as well.

Thanks, will post findings and hopefully a solution for others to benefit by.

Never did find the culprit but "fisubice" theme doesn't exhibit the anomaly but all the other themes do .. so .. the client is happy with the default theme ... good thing! Smile

Just thinking out loud. Fisubice is one of two themes left with separate html files for formatting. It's possible that the changes you made only affect themes that don' have these html files. Also, if you use the find feature in your browser to find underline formatting on the view source ( open bracket u close bracket) it might facilitate finding the culprit change.

Finding an open closing bracket is gonna be like looking for the proverbial needle. Client is happy with fisubice ... butttt ... would like to find the culprit for posterity sake if nothing else.

It isn't like looking for a needle in a haystack if you use WinMerge or Beyond Compare 2 to compare your files with the stock distro files.

It is also possible someone inserted a <u> in some content or block and forgot to close it. If the file differencing turned up nothing you could try turning off blocks/modules to see what happens.

Already been determined that it's not in the distro files but rather in approx 100 pages of custom text in Content, FAQ, etc and that's what makes it a "needle". Smile

Given time, I'll find it and when I do, will post the results.

Yes, but the Odyssey theme is no longer the default so it really won't do any good I guess and the client may be unwilling to cooperate. I'll find it. THANKS ... Smile

Persistence pays off. Found the problem. Was using an older Odyssey theme with an even older style.css file. Replaced it with a more updated file and the problem underlines disappeared. Yahhhh buddy!! Smile
