and then this? 1133. Angel-Five - 2/9/2000 4:02:27 PM 1134. CalGal - 2/9/2000 4:02:29 PM What's weird is the blue. Why blue? I checked the source code and can't find it anywhere. 1135. CalGal - 2/9/2000 4:02:46 PM Oh, well, green is nice. 1136. Angel-Five - 2/9/2000 4:02:56 PM I guess. 12
1137. CalGal - 2/9/2000 4:03:33 PM font color set to black 1138. Angel-Five - 2/9/2000 4:03:34 PM hahaha, let me see.
1139. CalGal - 2/9/2000 4:03:49 PM and then now 1139. Angel-Five - 2/9/2000 4:03:49 PM And. 1140. Angel-Five - 2/9/2000 4:04:13 PM Okay. It's dependent upon the color you set in the intital bungled font tag. 1141. CalGal - 2/9/2000 4:04:36 PM hahahahaha!
this is the end of the tag? 1142. Angel-Five - 2/9/2000 4:04:41 PM 1143. Angel-Five - 2/9/2000 4:05:03 PM Oh, Toto. 1144. Angel-Five - 2/9/2000 4:05:14 PM We're back in Kansas. 1145. Angel-Five - 2/9/2000 4:05:37 PM The tags stack. 1146. CalGal - 2/9/2000 4:06:11 PM Okay, so if I type in < font color="white" ) and then this and this< /font > then anything I type here is the actual text and then I can end it with another < /font >
But how do you turn off the colors? Entering a bunch of < /font >
test? 1147. Angel-Five - 2/9/2000 4:07:26 PM White yields blue. Red yields green. Blue yields red. If this is part of a recognizable sequence, I've no idea. My HTML is pidgin. 1148. Angel-Five - 2/9/2000 4:08:08 PM Yeh. Check the source, that's what I did to get the colors to revert back in my posts. 1149. CalGal - 2/9/2000 4:08:10 PM Yeah, you did the same thing I did.
Okay, so my post above describes what happens, although I can't see what's up with those colors.
The initial font tag ends with what the user thinks is the closing font tag--the first time the > shows up. Then all the next text shows up in whatever weird color and you have to end it with < /font >.
Good bug, Irv! 1150. Angel-Five - 2/9/2000 4:09:38 PM What color does green yield? 1151. CalGal - 2/9/2000 4:10:10 PM My HTML is by no means expert; I'm more application architect than coder.
But I think what happens is the HTML doesn't recognize the color without the end tag, so it resolves it. As you demonstrate, there's a pattern to it. Interesting.
