in thread Visited links in nodelets are rendered invisible

I can't find what changed or where. Maybe Corion knows or can figure it out. He's usually the one who messes with the CSS stuff, as that involves files on the fs, outside the node database.

    Hmm ... This would explain why some of my other CSS settings stopped working too.

    For instance when I'm C&Ping code directly into my editor I'm getting interspersed empty lines.

Re^5: Visited links in nodelets are rendered invisible (reason: <div> for <table>)

    Hi,

    I compared both versions for AnoMonk in the wayback machine ...

    ... and narrowed it down.

    Problem is that the nodelets are constructed with <div> instead of <table> , and that the CSS classes don't fit anymore.

    You (all) can replicate this by going to

    and activating

    • Lay out nodelets as <div> instead of <table>?

    I can't tell which patch to blame for the change of the default setting for AnoMonk.

    EDIT: Of course we could also try to fix the CSS for divs, which would take longer and fits into the usual "Get it done or get it right" dilema.

    update

    good thing is, anyone eager to solve it can experiment with his CSS setting after getting divs activated.

    Cheers Rolf

      I really appreciate the work you've done on this. This is one case where we really want to do it right rather than quickly. Can you figure out what to patch? It still seems really weird to me that this happened without any patch to trace it to...

        CSS is not my forte. I mean I know how to use it, but the monasteries spaghetti dish requires an expert for the sauce.

        I did my best to explain how any Monk could experiment with it and propose a solution for the div's CSS.

        Nevertheless, why is the monastery even defaulting to divs now?

        Don't we have means to dump the variables into HTML comments for tracing?

        Cheers Rolf
