in thread Visited links in nodelets are rendered invisible

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

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.

    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

        OK, I think I found the problem. The display setting of Anonymous Monk was changed, to enable "nodelets as div". I have changed it back, and now it appears OK. Please confirm.

        I probably made that change originally, sometime between 2/5 and 2/17, but I don't remember doing it. Getting senile...
