My client who’s helping test things imported this code from her current website into the new RTE field.

In most browsers, the content displays correctly, but in FF, the content breaks at the Pinterest link and nothing displays under it, and resizing the window, and scrolling don’t help. I was able to recreate this on my PC.

Here’s the code from the RTE field so you can test on your PC.

Works great on my mac, and in IE8 in Vista, just not FF.

It’s likely some strangeness. Note how the RTE has started doubling up no quotes near the end: “”=”” That’s not from the code that was brought into EE, it’s appeared after being ported over.

Anyway, I’ll try recoding the info and see if that helps us, but the fact that the RTE was hiding some of the content, and only in FF, sounds like some sort of bug you’ll want to keep watch for.

UPDATE: OK, I think it has to do with how the RTE is treating curly quotes. Looks like my client snuck some into the mix. So maybe the way EE is working around them is breaking FF??

I’m off to scrub out some “smart quotes”. ;~D

Kurt,

I’m not having the same problem. I pasted in the above code and everything is showing up. The last line’s markup is not properly formed, so it’s not perfect but it does seem to be working better than it does for you. Am I missing something?

Wes

Are you using FireFox 11 on a Windows PC?

Yes I am, Firefox 11.0 on Windows 7.

Hm… maybe the forums here converted the MS Smart quotes in to web-friendly quotes or something. If my client hasn’t updated that entry already and fixed it, I’ll see if I can zip it up for you or something. Or… do something really client-like, and paste the code into an MS word doc, and then you can cut and paste it back out into EE. That nearly always seems to break something. ;~D

That’d certainly be helpful and would be a nice real world test. It might not make it into 2.5.0, but if it turns out to be a problem we’ll be sure to patch it.
