Would anyone mind looking at this page and telling me if everything looks okay?
http://www.rombocket.com/toypop/
Specifically, can you tell me if there are random, inconsistent font sizes and styles between headers, links, etc. on the page? this is happening to me in firefox, but i posted at some CSS elitist forum and they told me they didn't have this problem, but then proceeded to tell me how i should write my style-sheets. But i'm not convinced.
please respond with:
1. OK/NOT OK (elaborate if possible)
2. BROWSER (ver. if possible) and OPERATING SYSTEM
you will recieve joy and satisfaction and warm inner-feeling as a reward! |

Firefox 2.0.0.3, Windows XP SP2, looks fine.
However your katakanaization is wrong. It should be トイポップ (toi poppu). Here's proof.

Minor bug with the blockquote tag in Opera.
This is how it looks in Firefox:
And this is how it looks in Opera:
Opera 9.01, Windows xp SP 2.
This is just an heads-up, because I'm pretty sure that this is unfixable, unless you'd want to bother writing specific style-sheets for specific browsers (I know I wouldn't). The left side of the blockquote looks the same on both browsers.
The 'visited links becoming big'-thing is nifty. _________________

There's one error in your page when I run it through the validator. Who knows it could be related to that blockquote space. I'd show your page in the Web Development forum on MozillaZine, they know their stuff. _________________ Get Xenoblade Chronicles!

actually, that's the problem i'm talking about :( That's not supposed to happen.
Oh man, I hadn't even seen the blockquote thing.

Which validator? XML? Yeah, I didn't really understand that error. Not sure how to fix it.
I'll check out that forum. thanks! |

Try it now quick shot, I think I found the error in my sheet.
This is actually a wordpress theme I've been slowly modifying (I'm not prime-time enough to write my own). The other night I added a specific element for a review page. that's when I started seeing problems with the font size. I think the problem came in one of my declarations.
I had
| Code: |
| #review-box .title a, a:visited {...} |
where I should have had
| Code: |
| #review-box .title a, .title a:visited {...} |
I wasn't specific enough about the context of that second declaration ... but i could see where some browsers might just assume that a:visited went along with the title class. not that it matters to anyone, i think I am just sorting out my thoughts here. |

| This looks wonderful from a design standpoint. Using Firefox 2.0.0.3 with Tidy HTML extension, and all it's giving me is a few notices about redundant <p> and <span> tags. |

rye, it still looks the same in Opera. What did you change exactly?
Edit: I did some testing and it's pretty clear that Opera and FF treat blockquotes differently. There's simple way to make it look the same in all 3 main browsers: absolute width (meaning, whichever size you choose. 350px, for example, or whatever looks best).
Edit 2: to clarify, this was all in regards to the blockquote thing, not visited links (which is working fine now). _________________

The visited links are working fine in Firefox now. Block quoting is fine as well. If Opera is not handling the block quotes right I don't know if there is much of anything to do about it. _________________

Wouldn't worry about the odd words wrapping like in that block quote, impossible to avoid because every browser uses a different font renderer
CSS is not very accurate at all when you bring multiple browsers into the mix. _________________
