Ah!

Testing white?

1160. CalGal - 2/9/2000 4:13:42 PM

Try it with and without quotes around the colors. On IE, if you use quotes around the colors, it will show up in the desired color. If you don't put quotes around the color, it comes up random.

and this... and I wonder if quotes help... let's see if itdoes.

1162. CalGal - 2/9/2000 4:16:47 PM

See if I can recreate with other colors:

Testing red with no quotes
Testing red with quotes

Testing green with no quotes
Testing green with quotes

Testing purple with no quotes
Testing purple with quotes

1163. CalGal - 2/9/2000 4:17:30 PM

Yep, it's quotes.

It depends upon the color in the bungled tag AND the composition of the inadvertantly-created tag.

Okay, I'm done playing. That was fun.

1171. CalGal - 2/9/2000 4:37:44 PM

this is white no quotes with "so instead of blah blah"

this is white no quotes withe "blah blah"

this is white no quotes withe "blah blah blah"

Ah! Blah blah and blah blah blah give the same color.

this is white no quotes withe "serendipty"

this is white no quotes withe "dummy text"

1172. Angel-Five - 2/9/2000 4:46:07 PM

Check the source. If there's no space between the bungled tag and the following text, there's no inadvertant tag, apparently.

Oh, I see. Very odd. I wonder how it resolves the colors? I'll have to read up.

Actually, it's the length of what's left attached to the bungled tag that affect the color, I guess.

1176. Angel-Five - 2/9/2000 4:58:07 PM

And now unless i feel scientific again, I'm really done.

Yeah, that's what I noticed in your tests as well. You have more patience than I do--once I know what the problem is, I start to yawn. Testing ain't my bag.

To further confuse the matter, I'm going to move the off-topic Quiz thread posts over here.

Who'da thunk a mere parentheses substituted for an angle bracket could cause all this?
