Odd.

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!
