 * I’ve installed wp 2.0, no plugins, and everything went fine, the problem now 
   is that posting breaks the theme/layout.
 * everything works fine with the default hello world post, i’ve upgraded to 2.0.1
   but the issue remains
 * the blog is here : [http://nunmusic.com/wordpress/](http://nunmusic.com/wordpress/)
 * if i delete the post, with only the hello world post remaining, things go back
   to normal.
 * i’ve installed several wordpress blogs but never seen this before…
 * any ideas?

 * The only difference I can see between the two posts is this bit of code that 
   I don’t understand:
 * `
    <div id="Clipmarks215BorderDiv1426" style="border: 2px solid orange; margin:
   0px; padding: 0px; position: absolute; width: 0px; display: none; z-index: 99999"/
   > <div id="Clipmarks35BorderDiv8843" style="border: 2px solid orange; margin:
   0px; padding: 0px; position: absolute; width: 0px; display: none; z-index: 99999"/
   > <div id="Clipmarks804BorderDiv4802" style="border: 2px solid orange; margin:
   0px; padding: 0px; position: absolute; height: 0px; display: none; z-index: 99999"/
   > <div id="Clipmarks624BorderDiv5571" style="border: 2px solid orange; margin:
   0px; padding: 0px; position: absolute; height: 0px; display: none; z-index: 99999"/

 * What is that supposed to be doing?
 * If you try another post without that part, does it work?

 * I know that you’re probably messing with codes at the same time I’m viewing the
   site..and it’s screwed!.. I’m going zip all my files so it works hopefully for
   ya….just wait a little…thx

 * thanx!
 * i don’t know why i never thought of looking at the source… sort of embaresed 
   now… 😉
 * <clipmarks> got my thinking since thats the name or i firefox extension i’m using…
   i tried posting from that ms browser and everything worked fine!
 * there must be some issue with that extension interfering with the wp textarea…
 * i’ll have to try this some more…

 * That’s interesting — I also use FF but don’t have any extensions running. I wonder
   what’s going on there — hope you figure it out!

 * Try this once..just download and upload the Header.php file, the CSS file and
   the Footer.php file.. Or if need be, all of it..

 * I have it so it’s the same files and imagery as mine at the test101 site.. it’s
   up to you to use it, like I said, just basically upload the header.php, style.
   css and the footer.php files..

 * Also, if you want them >> arrows to go away, because they ONLY show up in the
   FF browser and not in IE.. then find this section of your CSS file in the Control
   Panel = Presentation => Themes => Theme Editor….
 * And click on the stylesheet link…find this code:
 * `
    .entry ul li:before, #sidebar ul ul li:before {
 * content: "0BB 020";
 *  }
 * And comment it out like this:
 * `/****
    .entry ul li:before, #sidebar ul ul li:before {
 * content: "0BB 020";
 *  }
    *****/

 * Plus! In that copy..the whole sidebar should be showing for each page…if you 
   uploaded all the files ….. Forgot to mention that to start with..I had a heck
   of a time figuring that out, but then with the help of GamerZ..got it done. =)
