A useful additional angle on this is that if include some JavaScript to add a class to , for example, a class called "owner" when you are logged in, then you can have all that debugging stuff only seen by yourself. (WordPress sites, or other sites where you can be logged in, lend themselves to

Two colons are for pseudo elements. One colon is for pseudo classes. However, I believe that one colon always works because there wasn't a distinction until CSS3. ::first-letter ::first-line ::before ::after :link :visited :hover :active :focus :first-child :lang -Original Message- Fro

since the pre is part of a plugin, is there a way to override that function? I’ll ask the developer to change the bizarre use of that tag. On Sep 26, 2014, at 10:36 AM, Alex M wrote: > Hey there, > > You’ve got the surrounding element as a - telling the content inside > that the content has

Hey there, You’ve got the surrounding element as a - telling the content inside that the content has been pre formatted. This means that  browsers may disable automatic text wrap as it’s doing here. Try using a or a . See http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/text.html#edef-PRE for ref -Alex

On this page, second sample: http://trafficsafety.org/uncategorized/spanish the line of text is extending outside the container and I can’t figure why. I know the code is a mess (divs inside a pre tag, for instance) but that’s from a plugin so overrides are going into the theme css. thank you
