Will Someone Look at This Thread?
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=102&topic_id=312926&mesg_id=312926

Tell me if it's my browser that's acting wiggy or if there's something about the text of the thread headline that is? The text doesn't look like it's all there, and then it does odd things when I run my mouse over it.

2. Put the booze down NOW!
Seriously, though, I don't see anything "wiggy", except for some extra question marks.

I saw the ? ? when I looked at the source.

What's happening on the regular view is, I see

Corroborating O (----blank space) Neill (-blank-)s Account.

When I drag my mouse cursor across the top, the "Neill's Account" slides around.

I'm on Mozilla, btw. OS X.

(it doesn't SAY "blank," I just can't get empty text in the message. grrr)

4. There are little boxes where the apostrophies ought to be
I moved my mouse all over it, and it did nothing.

I then moved other things all over it, and it still did nothing. Oh well.

5. Looks okay to me
The html converter program DU uses converted your smart quotes to question marks, but most online posting boards do that. I suggest running a scan on your C-drive and then downloading an update to your browser. Maybe you got a worm or bug of some sort.

6. It has odd characters in the headline for me
And odd characters in the title of the article too.

I'm also seeing members with green stars instead of yellow stars next to thei names once in a while.

Are you also running Window98, by chance?
