Forum:Number Lists

Hello again. I think you're going to have to get used to the fact that I'm only going to come around here if there's a problem. Sorry.

Well, I'm not sure why, but your numbered lists are broken. Watch:


 * 1) Normally
 * 2) there was no problem
 * 3) here
 * 4) but now,
 * 5) all the numbers show up as 1.
 * 6) no matter how far down the line
 * 7) you go.

You guys seem to have to changed the coding for these lists, can you change it back so that its not broken? This problem seems to only exist in Internet Explorer (Firefox users, I know you people have found God in your operating system, but please do not ask me to switch over as you always do). --Blue Highwind 13:06, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I can verify: it works fine in Mozilla Firefox, but it doesn't work in Internet Explorer. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 13:28, 16 January 2009 (UTC)


 * The HTML of this page look fine in both IE7 and Firefox 3 :

 * Although line breaks are weirdly placed, it should not matter. Maybe on the CSS side ? — TulipVorlax 15:00, 16 January 2009 (UTC)


 * switch to firefox to find your new god. Ohhh 07:31, 18 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Why switch anything ? I have 4 browsers (and i could have more). Want me to explain why i dont like Firefox ? This would be off topic... — TulipVorlax 05:41, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Wait. Why don't you like Firefox? It's what I'm using right now. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 14:09, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

Yeah I've noticed this too.--Happyface

Lets see how this works with HTML markup
<ol> Test line one.</li> Test line two.</li> Test line three.</li> </ol>

Hmm. Very interesting. This is not a wikicode problem as it is also messing up "proper" HTML. Maybe it is a style sheet issue. David Shepheard 07:12, 17 January 2009 (UTC)


 * I've used the 'Contact Us' feature to bump this upstairs, as it seems pretty obvious that normal wiki editors are not going to be able to fix this problem. David Shepheard 07:17, 17 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Well thanks. — TulipVorlax 11:51, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

I want to let everyone know that the problem has been found, and it has been fixed in the code. I do not know when that code will go live on the servers, I will add a note on the ticket to see if it can be pushed out of cycle. --Uberfuzzy 19:43, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

Interesting. Master JonathanJedi Council Chambers 07:34, 24 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Oh i notice they were alinged at bottom but not that numbering was good. I wonder what cause the misalignment as there's no CSS propoerty i know of to valign bullet... — TulipVorlax 07:52, 24 January 2009 (UTC)

And bullets ?
On this page : http://fr.guildwars.wikia.com/wiki/Tonique

In the the table, bullets are vertically misaligned (in IE7). Is it related or is it another problem ? — TulipVorlax 07:05, 18 January 2009 (UTC)


 * test
 * of
 * the
 * alignment
 * test

yes, also known and reported. no fix on this one yet afaik. likely the same cause since both are only happening in ie (and it seems like its 7+ too) --Uberfuzzy 09:15, 18 January 2009 (UTC)


 * No fix ? Ok, i'll report back to the complaining sysop on fr.gw... — TulipVorlax 02:07, 19 January 2009 (UTC)


 * http://www.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:Number_Lists?&useskin=cologneblue - this renders fine in IE for me, probably a monaco thing. -- Sixorish 16:52, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
 * It's broken in Monobook as well, however. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 00:35, 26 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Even searching the web high and low i cant find an HTML or CSS way to vertically align bullet. Or maybe my search skill arent top notch on this perticular topic. — TulipVorlax 03:08, 26 January 2009 (UTC)


 * found this one, may be it can help (suggests to use background instead of list style):
