Re: A Sydney Artist Portfolio site
What field are you placing it in?
What does the original entry look like before its parsed?
Etc.

Re: A Sydney Artist Portfolio site
Thanks for the kind words – A mate noticed it on IE (Harder to notice on a Mac) ×x
Yes, the next/previous was like that on IE6 until an afternoon hack. Many believe all websites with IE6 hacks will go wrong with IE7, but some believe MS tends to be backward compatibe. Wait and see what happens when beta goes pro.
The dimensions are part of the body of each article (in the body field)

<code>
90×90×4cm
Natural, found forms, encapsulated between layers of dyed silk

And upwrapped, even here it gets jumbled up: 90×90×4cm

That’s Textile.
It replaces all x-es with “multiply signs” at all multiplications it occurs. Textile is not aware of the third dimension, though, so it replaces just the first “x”.
Maybe Dean C. Allen was a member of The Flat Earth Society when he created Textile ;-)

Wet, errr, Arnold, like I said before you’re cuckoo, howd you know that?
What OS do you run in that brain of yours?
Catnip, looks like you ought to think about turning textile off for that one, or placing the dimensions in a custom field where textile is not run? (I assume).

Sorry if I will destroy a carefully crafted ilusion, but I know that because I had the same effect previously. And because I tend to read manuals, even the last paragraphs.

Depends on the season: Cold beer and G’spritzer by summer, Glühwein during the frosty periods.

I beg to differ. I would even replace the second “x” with a multiply sign manually, as this is the correct way of specifiying dimensions anyway. We’re all just too lazy to use it properly. That’s the prime reason why we use Textile, btw.

Great – I’m glad we all learnt something here today.
I’ll just go and manually change all the 190 articles.
Thanks × × ×

Just a suggestion, but MS says it’s layout complete and I had the few hacks I was using break in 7. So, I took Shea’s advice and moved IE-specific style declarations to their own sheet. Included with a conditional comment, it’s actually made life easier: Any adjustments for IE can be made there w/o having to hunt them down again. :)
Can be included in TXP thusly:
<code>
<!—[if lte IE 6]>
<link rel=“stylesheet” type=“text/css” media=“screen” href=”<txp:css n=“ie” />” />
<![endif]—>
</code>
If the final release does go bad, the underscore/-9px margin on #skippy (which is causing the drop, methinks) wouldn’t be read by IE7.
