More than Comments are Borked

Apparently, article titles are popped on a static backdrop or something, as any article title that spans two lines end up dumping the comment and tag info over the text of the article.

I will bludgeon Colin accordingly.

Colin’s note:  True, aside from being poor writing form to have REALLY long article titles, it will mess with the stylesheet.  Never once have I claimed to be a master webdesigner.  If Carl wishes to actually do some work on the site, I have no problem with that.  But, we all know that won’t happen.

Carl’s Rebuttal:  Now that BostonGeek is actually popular with some people, I probably shouldn’t be let loose on it, knowing as little as I do about style sheets and web design in general.  I mean, seriously, the only language I know is HTML.  Also, bite my shiny metal ass.

    If you split that blue box into an upper and lower image, you could use CSS background colors around the text and a left and right black border on a DIV box to fill in the middle. It’s a pain, requires a lot of tweaking, and must be tested in different browsers, but it works.

    Heh… Carl said he knows HTML. Funny, how he had no idea what the blockquote tag was. Anyway, Greg, thanks for the tip. I have to admit, much of what I do amounts to laziness. Which is good, considering I don’t have a Windows box to do testing with, and Carl is incapable of proper testing *zinger*. Eventually, I will start fixing all the things I left in an, umm, unfinished state. Its a work-in-progress, as they say.
