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

I feel both heartened and chastened simultaneously.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

In terms of why it did in my browers I(and I know this is belated) because this is how I told my browser (unintentionally) to handle monspaced. You can have all the css you want, but the browser still decides how to handle the css commands. And if you tell then to, browsers will overide just about anything.

In one broswer it was handling multiline monospace as monospace,but single line monspace as normal text. And the broswer decided that block quote was multi-line even if it only had a line of text, but that cite was (percent) was single line and thus handled as non-monospaced - regardless of what the css said. Something else along those lines was happending in the other browser involving serif and non-serif fonts. I won't bore you with that onem, because the key is that browser settings can override anything in terms of appearance and past a certain point, it is not the developer's problem.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Is <cite> still getting stripped?

Yes. Do you need it? It seems to be unpredictable in many browsers, varying between nothing and italic.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

No, I don't need it. But the tag itself is problematic where the quickedit wasn't? That's curious.

The quickedit was wrong, though.

There's a pretty short list of allowed tags. it's easier to manage that way. You need t small t big t code or t pre --you're all hooked up. But most of the semantic tags are out.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, no, I agreed with the change.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

FTR, carets = quoting doesn't work on my iPhone anymore. Anyone else experience this?

Because books.

Yeah, it doesn't work when I read the board on my Android, either, and I'm not sure how to refresh it there.

I'm not sure how you force a refresh on those--at least as far as I got with Opera Mobile, it's displaying just fine. Same on my Touch, in both Opera and the default browser.
