Post style elements disappeared

    I don’t know what’s happened here. I’m having a problem with the look of my blog when viewing it in Firefox (IE seems to be fine)

    If you look at the main page of my blog using Firefox…

    Media Relations and SEO PR

    You’ll notice that the most recent post is fine. However, if you look at the posts behind that and all the way down the page, you’ll see that the style elements in the header and category/date/author information are gone! I looked at the page source and they seem to be there. The h2 tags and other things are where they should be, but they’re not displaying properly. If you click on a post and view it in single post mode, everything seems to be fine.

    This just happened in the last couple of days. I visit my blog frequently and would have noticed it.

    I’ve tried clearing my cache in Firefox and that doesn’t seem to help. I also upgraded my blog to 2.2, figuring I needed to do that anyhow. That didn’t make a difference either. I’ve also viewed the problem on multiple computers, so it’s not just my copy of Firefox.

    Anyone? I’m stumped on this one.

    This could have something to do with it. You’ve got 96 validation errors.

    Thanks, but it’s highly unlikely that has anything to do with it. 75 of those errors are related to the diggIT plugin. Many of the remaining “errors” are questionable, and the vast majority are in text sidebar widgets anyhow. I view those so-called validators with a grain of salt.

    Anyhow .. it’s fixed. I switched the most recent post over to “private” and found that suddenly all of the rest of the posts looked right again. When I re-published the post in question, everything remained fine. For some reason that fixed it.

    Most likely an unclosed tag in that post. If your using the visual editor for your posts that’s most likely the culprit. Switch over to the code view and look for any unclosed tags.

    Probably was. I looked at the code in that post and it was mess. I copied it over from an online news release I’d distributed and didn’t realize how sloppy the code was. Regardless, it’s fixed.
