I'm still using IE6, so I dunno if anyone's gonna want to fix this, but for some odd reason, <quote> blocks cause the indenting to go left by a few pixels for the rest of someone's reply on my system, up to and beyond the edges of the table bounds, as shown:

{"name":"598067","src":"\/\/djungxnpq2nug.cloudfront.net\/image\/cache\/f\/4\/f46f47ef92af06c215d10062259e535f.png","w":1119,"h":715,"tn":"\/\/djungxnpq2nug.cloudfront.net\/image\/cache\/f\/4\/f46f47ef92af06c215d10062259e535f"}

Spoilers work for me, are you running NoScript or some other plugin stopping such things maybe?

Perhaps it's an odd side-effect of the update, but clicking on Kris' screenshot gives me a 404 error.

After a reboot, spoilers oddly seem to be working for me. Must be something with my browser.

I don't like how writing '<' now requires me to press 'shift + ,', when to get '[' I only needed to press one key. Oh well.

I think there are more keypresses in that post than the extra keypresses you're complaining about.

I just had to press Shift an extra 4 times to quote you, so I don't see your point. It's not the number of keypresses total, it's the extra number of keypresses.

EDIT: Not that it's a big deal, I am mostly joking

Ah, quoting just seemed messed up in Safari or something. Upon ctrl-f5ing in Firefox, quote tags work as expected.

I prefer the '<' characters to the '['. It may include an extra Shift+ but the keys are in a more natural location.

What? As far as I see it, [ requires ALT + F, ] = ALT + G. < requires only one key press. > Requires Shift + <. ^[1]

Oh, BTW ^[2], I like the new markup code very much. ^[3]

Did quote always have a src attribute? Anyway, I like it. References are cool. Escape character: genious.
I don't know about embedded stuff, though...
Doing h1 in your signature is awesome, especially if you'd make a comment about the next one who posts. [ signature links broken]

I think that most of the markup should be disabled in signatures, as weapon_s has so proudly demonstrated.

Thanks for the "what???" vs what fix

Also, this is an awesome idea

. Never would have thought of it. I'm sure I'll (ab)use this feature

EDIT: though it doesn't work in preview...

Finally, conversion to real html/xhtml tags is nice.

Most, but not all. Links, for example, are fine. I didn't change my sig, so it still has the old mockup (unless ML did some kind of mass update on old posts/sigs, but I thought they were 'compiled' to an intermediate markup for storage anyhow) and works fine.

We now have a lot more stuff we can use to make our posts look good, which is cool. The syntax is closer to being "standard", which is cool. I think the changes are an improvement; but I've never felt that the old formatting on these forums was lacking. I think I'll miss the simplicity of the old stuff for awhile. Also, I foresee overuse of <reveal> in the future...

Will you release the sources?

Not at the moment. But it only represents about 1,500 lines of new code and ten hours of work, so it shouldn't be that hard to develop yourself.

I'll help you get started:

$doc = new MockupDocument();
$doc->loadText($mockup);

$writer = new MockupWriter();
echo $writer->getHTML($doc);

When I shift click on the image, it becomes fullscreen, with no way other than alt-f4 to close the window.

I tried to upload a screenshot as a jpeg, but it stalled at 6% I clicked the attachment button to hide it, and now when I try and click it to bring down the form, it doesn't do anything.

Your browser shouldn't position the image window in a place where you cannot access it...

Attachments should work, but if you have problems with them, you can always edit your post and use the attachments link at the bottom right.

ReyBrujo said:

Interesting. I would have liked if you could have implemented the MediaWiki way of marking italics (two single quotes) and bold (three single quotes), like ''italics'' and '''bold''' too, since you already use the links and lists that are standard.

I never really liked that syntax, as it feels arbitrary. I prefer things that have meaning in plain text. Probably won't implement.

Kibiz0r said:

To be honest, I'd rather just have the white-text/black-bg standard spoiler setup.

Then that would limit spoiler sections to text. But if you want to do that, go ahead and modify your CSS.

Updates

I fixed up a few things:

A few CSS updates to correct some spacing issues
Enabled JS controls during previews.
Fixed some JS broken by the inclusion of prototype. This (partially) fixes PMs. Still more to do there.
Updated the spoiler to have a toggle button.
Fixed the long standing I'm dumb!<eating bug.
Re-enabled 'light' HTML in signatures, and limited the maximum number of lines to four.
Changed the reference blocks to be static text (instead of JS built). Old posts won't reflect that change.
References are highlighted and visible when the [1] link is clicked.

To activate the changes, you must refresh your browser to update your CSS and JS files.

That includes you idiots who never listen. >:(

BRILLIANT!

It's how every page should look on IE 6. I'm not going out of my way to work around any of its glitches.

It looks like a classic case of the Creeping Text bug^[1] to me, in which case the Zoom Hack^[2] will probably fix it.

I won't be doing anything about it, but you could try adding something like this to your custom CSS:

td.content,
div.mockup,
div.quote_container
{
  zoom: 1;
}

Signatures of four lines only? What will bamccaig do now? At least give us the -- line for free! I still would like a link back from the reference to the word it was reference.
