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] .

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

Okay, here's my inheritance when I delete personal customisation. This is the computed style:

color: #000000;
display: block;
font: normal normal 400 16px/normal Consolas;
height: 19px;
margin: 2px 64px;
padding: 0px;
text-align: left;
width: 669px;

And here is the tree that shows how that came about: [link]

Why is it not triggering buffista.css lines 185 and 190 for everyone? Is it being overridden by the user agent stylesheet? You can see that mine's being overwritten, which is my expectation...naive as I am.

Hey. New board.

For me, it was totally a refreshing thing. I changed the background color on my own personal stylesheet and it didn't work either. Then I shift-refreshed about 3 times, and suddenly got the new color AND the correct behavior on the blockquote. The CSS must have been cached, and Chrome wasn't checking correctly for a new version or something.

Hey. New board.

Working for me correctly in Firefox, too.

Everybody try shift-refreshing a few times!

Oh hey, that did it for me. Stupid cache!

God damn it! I swear we put in code to try and force that refresh, but I guess it never worked.

Okay, I'll note that in Press.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

You have a space in front of the % sign,

Oh, oops. That'd do it.

% percent

carat

Now they're both indented and monospace.
