• The vote display results slightly clip the right parenthesis in IE7. The drop downs are fine in IE7. Of course, there is no problem in the 5 other browsers I tested. If you look at the rendered html you will notice a conditional for IE6 and 6.5 that affects the CSS and padding. Still the cell padding is rendered at zero when viewed in ie7. Maybe the conditional is not working properly for IE six. Take a look at the rendered html and note the cell padding. Regardless, I am not about to spend time fixing Microsoft's problem born of Bill's arrogance about cross platform compatibility. Thankfully, nearly everyone I work with uses Firefox. It is a much safer browser and the recommended browswer for both PSU (PSU goes schizo on ANGEL) and Dept. Homeland Security. There will be problems in the hmc library I suppose. AS for as for those who will vote on this project, you are the only one using IE so I don't think we should scrap it just yet. -- LorenEvey - 24 May 2007
• Odd, I checked it in 5 different browsers across both Linux and Windows. There was no problem. Have you noticed this on more than one computer? Have you noticed it on a computer that does not have the HMC image? -- LorenEvey - 24 May 2007
• This is what it looks like to me-- the only difference in the PDF is that the blue headings in each table didn't get rendered (they look blue to me here!). http://www.medicalhistology.us/twiki/bin/viewfile/Main/VotePluginSandbox?rev=1;filename=ScreenViewVPS.pdf -- AshleyLPistorio - 23 May 2007
• I'm using IE6-- HMC is not prepared to support v7 yet. I just started playing with the left bar feature... finding it will be good as the site grows to a beanstalk for Jack to climb. -- AshleyLPistorio - 22 May 2007
• IE 6 or 7? I was referring to the default font setting in IE. Plus, there may be a setting that does, or does not, allow the browser to override the rendered font. Don't worry about this. I will see if I can duplicate it in IE 7 on another computer. My main work computer will not even run IE, it BSODs. This is appropriate in my case. Could you please monitor this voteplugin and vote again when you see I have changed it? I am trying to figure out how to override the default behavior of alphabetizing the headers. Otherwise, I would have to write questions with attention to the alphabetization. Not savory. Did you create a "live" bookmark for the site? IE6 does not support RSS feeds (live bookmark). IE7, however does so, and Firefox has for a few years. The live bookmark is very handy for tracking new content. I saw that you edited your left bar. The left bar can be handy. Take a look at mine. -- LorenEvey - 22 May 2007
• I'm using IE as my main browser. I try to confirm layouts through multiple browsers because of this. I couldn't find anything in the vote plugin documentation that said font size was controllable. How do I change the font size for the section (thinking the plugin goes with whatever the current defaults are)? See- I'm trying not to fall back on html coding... and there was no straightforward explanation in the TWiki help topics. -- AshleyLPistorio - 21 May 2007
• I scripted the numbers to automatically increment. It seems that the interveening call causes the numbering to reset. What browser are you using? Can you reduce the screen font size and "fix" the cutoff text? There is not a cutting off of text in my browser - Firefox. -- LorenEvey - 21 May 2007
• It's cutting off text to the right of the vote tally. Also, I did change an answer and then change it back-- it seems to work well. -- AshleyLPistorio - 21 May 2007
• nevermind... you have two number ones... I see- they are different! -- AshleyLPistorio - 21 May 2007
• why do I see the question twice with multiple answers? -- AshleyLPistorio - 21 May 2007
