in thread Signature size vs node size

Just to be clear, the start of your signature should be signified by <div class="pmsig"><div class="pmsig-132236">, which is the very first thing in your node above. You need to update your signature so that you don't start typing inside of those tags.

I never put those tags there. Perl Monks does that for me, and I never said I wanted it. I do want other stuff in my nodes to be present, so that I can copy and paste quotes and not worry about their markup.

If there is a way to get rid of these tags, please let me know. I can then add them in the proper location. I am not going to start my "sig" with </div></div>.

Juerd # { site => 'juerd.nl', plp_site => 'plp.juerd.nl', do_not_use => 'spamtrap' }

    Howdy!

    I dealt with it by moving the pmsig line to right before the "real" signature part, since I use my signature to provide me with a template for my notes. I'm lazy and thereby get to avoid gratuitously typing "Howdy!", etc.

      They're not part of the signature itself, but inserted at write time. Moving one line for every post is not something I'd like to do. I use my signature as a template because I'm lazy, not because I like repeating tasks.

        I left out an important detail: I fixed it on the user- options page. When I compose a message, the edit box reads: 

        Howdy!

        I don't have to move that line each time. I did the lazy thing and fixed my signature.
