Formatting Tips in Firefox

In Firefox when editing a Wiki entry, you cannot click the headings (i.e. Bold, Italics, Headings etc) to find out more information - assume this is also a problem with any Gecko browsers.

Perhaps this is due to the use of *onclick='javascript:ShowTip("tip_boldtip")' * in the span tag. Surely the javascript: bit is not required (as onclick is always javascript). If that doesn't work, maybe wrap the span in an <a> tag? -- sbc

Sucky HTML

HTML seems to have been written by a five year old. Not all browsers are as forgiving of bad HTML as InternetExplorer. And not everybody uses IE.

Safari Breakage

MacOS 10.3.3/Safari 1.2.1: the Windows Media Player controls on the page spew "Cannot playback files: Invalid playlist format" errors. Occasionally, it puts up an infinite number of errors, requiring me to force-quit Safari. -- eightball

Aware of the Safari issue and Windows Media 9 for Mac OS X bugs. We are working on a fix and will have it done soon. Thanks for the report.

Opera Rendering of Navigation Bar

On the total site, the Navigation toolbar (Echo Chamber, Videos, Who We Are... etc) does not render properly in Opera 7.23. Forums link gets pushed to second line. -- Akmad

Firefox Rendering of Navigation Bar

In Firefox at least, the main panel (the nav bar and all below it) extends one pixel to the right more than it should, which looks unprofessional. The nav links also aren't evenly spaced. -- DalanGalma

IE Back Button

At various parts of the site, using IE 6, if I click the 'Back' button I see the actual HTML mark-up of the page in the browser, basically a view source view (don't know if it's the prior page or current page). Very weird since I've never seen this behavior in any ASP.NET apps I've developed.

I'm getting this too but I'm thinking that this is a bug of ""IE"" 6 ""SP2"".. -- Jtb
