"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

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.

well in my particular case it was font settings. The particular font that the browser rendered in response to the percent mark was identical to the one it rendered in normal use in the posting box. This happened in both Chrome and Opera. Don't know if it was default or a result of something I did to make text more readable for my bad eyes. Probably the latter.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

It took me a while to remember where I left Chrome, but it works for me there too.

However, I got curious, and on Dolphin Mini (on my Android phone) it picks up the quickedit > correctly, but both the quickedit % and the blockquote is picking up my personalized css and is monospaced, but not indented. But I have no web development tools on Dolphin, so I can't verify the css lines.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The particular font that the browser rendered in response to the percent mark was identical to the one it rendered in normal use in the posting box.

But why wasn't that being overridden by monospace in buffista.css? And was it indented?

In my example above, the percent line matches the plaintext line, and the carat line is indented and monospace.

According to Chrome's debugger, the line "percent" only has paragraph tags, no "blockquote" anywhere.

"carat" is wrapped in "cite" and the styling is showing up correctly.

You have a space in front of the % sign, so that's why it's not encoding. Those quickedits need to be first on the line.

% percent (blockquote)

greater than (cite)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I still don't see anything with the %.

Hey. New board.

Drilling down in chrome, I get a CSS match for buffistas.css cite{} on the cite line that sets it to monospace, but no equivalent match on the blockquote line. The only match I get on buffista.css for the blockquote line is the body{} block.

Hey. New board.

Hmm. It seems Chrome isn't correctly refreshing my sytlesheet or something, because the lines I'm seeing in the debugger do not match the ones I see if I go to [link] .
