I made a new quickedit. % gives you the t blockquote tag. ANd > operates like before, and gives you the t cite tag. And for giggles, I guess ] gives you t dfn.

So: % > <blockquote>
<dfn>

<cite>

If you can debug down into each of those and see what's influencing the final format it would be great.

Okay, in firebug, for the blockquote line I've got:

blockquote {
  color: #CCCCFF;
}
84.css (line 5)
cite, blockquote {
  font-family: monospace;
}
buffista.css (line 190)
cite, dfn, blockquote, .quote {
  display: block;
  font-style: normal;
  margin: 2px 4em;
}
buffista.css (line 185)

• {
  

  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
}
buffista.css (line 1)
Inherited fromdiv.postcontent
.postcontent {
  line-height: normal;
}
buffista.css (line 227)
Inherited fromdiv#page
#page {
  text-align: left;
}
buffista.css (line 21)
Inherited frombody
body {
  color: #000000;
  font-family: verdana,tahoma,arial,sans-serif;
  text-align: center;
}
buffista.css (line 7)
  color: #000000;   font-family: verdana,tahoma,arial,sans-serif;
  text-align: center;
}

Lemme see if that formatted right and I'll grab the relevant text from the <dfn> and <cite>.

---

So the only thing it's getting from my user84.css is the color, the font size displays the same as cite. <dfn> is slightly larger.

---

<dfn> is pulling from line 185 in the board css, nothing from mine, which is correct.

cite, dfn, blockquote, .quote {
  display: block;
  font-style: normal;
  margin: 2px 4em;
}
buffista.css (line 185)

• {
  

  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
}
buffista.css (line 1)

The rest of the inheritances are the same as for blockquote.

---

For <cite> I have:

cite, blockquote {
  font-family: monospace;
}
buffista.css (line 190)
cite, dfn, blockquote, .quote {
  display: block;
  font-style: normal;
  margin: 2px 4em;
}
buffista.css (line 185)

• {
  

  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
}
buffista.css (line 1)

---

Is that what you're after? But I think mine is showing up correctly, so it may be unhelpful.

---

What about % what does that get you?

---

% Tom Hardy (%)

Tom Hardy (blockquote)

Shows the same as blockquote. Goes my css line 5, then buffista.css line 190 to get the font-family monospace, then buffista.css line 185 to get the display block, font-style normal, and margin. Lastly buffistas.css line 1, where it gets padding 0, but the margin 0 is overridden.

---

> Tom

<cite> Tom </cite> <span class="quote"> Tom </span> % quickedit % Tom

<blockquote> Tom

<span class="indent"> Tom </span>

Hm.

---

Okay, the editor is stripping out <cite>. And span class "quote" is calling buffista.css line 185 to pick up the margin, but not line 190 to pick up the font family monospaced. Span class "indent" isn't picking up anything.

The quickedit > is correctly picking up line 190 and line 185, and the quickedit % and <blockquote> are both correctly picking up my personal css first before those two things.

So we the cite stripping is one thing, but beyond that we really need to see it in someone who is failing.
