Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

Yep.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Interesting. I did not know that was a stringent rule.

So the blockquote alters the flow of the HTML.

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

No. Tags are supposed to be nested -- closed in reverse order of their opening. Therefore t b t blockquote t i t /blockquote t /i t /b is incorrect code -- it should be closed like t /i t /blockquote t /b

Some browsers won't let the t b bleed past the t /blockquote -- I suspect that's strict HTML rendering, actually. Others, like Lee's, don't force the t /blockquote to close all the non-blocklevel tags opened before it.

What is even happening?

So we should always code t a t b t c text t /c t /b t /a ?

Actually I usually nest. It is when I convert from a quickedit to a blockquote, etc. that I get into trouble.

Lesson: Don't be lazy.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Never mind.

I just tried to post a message in Natter three times, and all three times it took me to the last message instead of posting it.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Stop hitting "Last" instead of "Post Message". t /not helpful

Hee. Part of what I was going to post was:

I've been awake for about half an hour. I wonder when my brain will be joining me.

Still, I did it three five times. I'm pretty sure I managed to hit the big red box at least once, even though it is morning.

eta: I tried it from IE as well, and the same thing happened there.

eagainta: I just tried again, since Kristin was able to post there. Still no luck.
