667729 2008-05-09 11:11:00 Hi all

I am having a rather bizarre problem I can't type the word left foot as one word everytime I try to do it looks fine then I submit or preview the thread and it comes out as lef with the last 5 letters missing

yes i know left foot is two seperate words but the problem is that I have tried in 3 seperate browsers to do this and I can't

leftf00t is what i want obviously the 00 should be replaced with oo, but all i ever get is lef

If you read the thread about the messed up ads there is a div called .tf00t, (obviously the 00 should be replaced with oo), bletch was able to write it out however I cant get it to appear, all that appears for me is .,

It is driving me potty

Is anyone else effected, or have I just lost my marbles

Now the question is what were you posting that needed you to type left foot?

Hi Jester
this isn't actually a riddle or anything, I honestly cannot get the word to appear correctly when I submit the page

left foot works fine

however try typing it with no space between the left and the foot, when ever i do it, it looks fine in the edit window however when I submit the post I get lef

edit Ok I see you've clicked

it is the

t foot (obviously without the space) that causes the problem it is a style element but it shouldn't effect this

however bletch managed to do it here

667732 2008-05-09 11:21:00 It only posts as lef for me too mate (as above). Just wondering what you were saying to find it out lol.

It could have something to do with a tf00t html command? Dunno.

667733 2008-05-09 11:26:00 Hmmm

I think we keep posting and editing at the same time

I was trying to display a "stylish' (firefox extension) script for dealing with the ads, however i noticed the line containing .tf00t, kept displaying as ., and three browser changes and a reboot later i decided i wasn't going made something screwy was going on

left foot was just because i was trying to think of a word that might contain that string of characters

heres the original post I was having issues with (pressf1.pcworld.co.nz)
