    And I suppose the huge text had nothing to do with it...

    [EDIT: I suppose I shouldn't be telling people how to do that]

    You put a 300% span inside a 300% span inside a 300% span...

    I flagged the post (or rather, the one after it, since I couldn't flag the offending post), so we'll have to see if a mod can fix or delete it.

    Because each one ended the font

    And my experience has taught me that /font ends all font html tags

    Edit: What I mean is that experience has told me that going font size font color then /font (iPhone is in auto show source mode) will end both the color and size tags at once



    By the way?

    I FOUND THE MOST OBNOXIOUS THING THAT I CAN TEST!

    Edit 2: ...I'm no longer allowed to use size tags in HTML, am I?

    Edit 3: Am I the first one to break the sandbox?

    Edit 4: Edit Harder

    Edit 5: Electric Boogaloo

    Edit 6: Yes I am saving the post then hitting edit each time

    Edit 7: THIS SHOULD NOT AMUSE ME!!!

    Um... it shouldn't work like that.

    Or at least, maybe it'd work for but that's not even a tag you're supposed to use.  Anyway it shouldn't work like that for

    Except I used font, not span

    So something changed it to span D:

    I don't know, really, but something obviously made the text much bigger than the 300% specified.

    Here's what it looks like for me.     And this is with Firefox zoomed as far out as possible.

    (Amusingly, when I tried to capture the entire page with Fireshot, I got an "out of memory" error)

    Oh crap, I was just screwing around and didn't realize that I would break it too...

    WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?!

    Ummm, I can't edit the post, the text is in the way.

    EDIT: fixed. I just lowered the text size so I could reach it.
  • DYREDYRE
    ^^^^ Yeah, it probably automatically converts to since the tag is deprecated, since HTML tags are supposed to specify types of content, not how that content is styled.
  • Central AvenueCentral Avenue
    I'm such a dumbass; why did I go and tell everyone how to break that? *facepalm*

    I didn't do what you said though, I don't even know what a 300% span is.

    I just put a size tag in a size tag.

    Hmmm...

    Tiny text.

    EXTRA BOLD TEXT.

    Yeah, but I'm saying that it converts to

    So, once it's converted (automatically by the forum software), it'll result in the markup that CA posted.

    What does the span style tag do? I just put a tag in a tag.

    just defines some text (or whatever else in it) as being in a span tag, which on its own doesn't do anything.  Generally, though, you use CSS to style spans, and the "style" attribute (which you can actually use with any HTML tag [or at least any HTML tag that makes sense]) just allows you to add a specific CSS style to whatever is affected by that tag.  CSS is a way of specifying styles for documents, so that you don't have to do things like use tags or use s for layout reasons.

    Basically, specifies something about the font, while just means "this is something specific", to which styles can then be applied.

    ^ The ninja explains it so much better, really.
