Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Getting rid of an ugly white lineI looked at it, Register does have the li tag.
I think one of the problems is the theme you started with looks like an “old-style” one designed for wordpress 1.x. You might be better off starting over with a more modern theme.
A good place to look is http://themes.wordpress.net/

In reply to: Getting rid of an ugly white lineBTW, don’t forget to hold the shift key and click the page reload button to force IE to redraw the page from scratch, otherwise your changes won’t get updated.

In reply to: Getting rid of an ugly white lineThe layout problem does not occur in Firefox, only IE, which suggests it’s an IE bug (big surprise). Notice the spacing between “Register” and “Login” is tighter than the others? Those two li tags are on a single line. A browser is supposed to ignore whitespace (which includes line breaks), but I know of a line-break bug in IE than can screw things up.
This probably won’t fix it, but see what happens when you remove “line-height: 12px;” from the style for div.navi.

In reply to: Getting rid of an ugly white lineTry setting the border-color to the same as the background.

In reply to: Getting rid of an ugly white lineThe lines are specified in the style sheet. The line under the date is from the “border-bottom” in the .time style. Not sure where the lines for then menu items are specified. Poke around.

In reply to: Sentence spacing.The plugin suggested by whoami is almost identical to the second revision of my plugin. Yesterday I had discovered that IE didn’t play well with the emspace, so I had switched to nbsp+space combination.

In reply to: Using the <br> tagIt’s that kind of thinking that got us tables nested twenty levels deep on far too many websites. Yes, it works. Yes it validates. No, it is not a good practice. Have you ever tried to make changes to one of those websites? I have. It’s a painful process.
Take a look at http://css.maxdesign.com.au/listamatic/ for some reasons why using lists is the preferred way to go.

In reply to: Using the <br> tagI disagree. Lists of links are lists. Therefore they should be formatted with the li tag and proper css.

In reply to: Suddenly… an error?If your blog is running on a Linux box:
Tell your ISP to check what “ulimit -aS” spits out. They should also dump the contents of /proc/sys/fs/file-max. It’s rare for Linux to run out of file descriptors, but is possible, especially if they are hosting a lot of active websites on a single computer.I have no suggestions if it’s running on Windows as I would never run anything important on that toy OS.

In reply to: Sentence spacing.I just wrote a quick plugin to do this, unfortunately, the rich editor removes duplicate whitespace so the plugin doesn’t work looking for “. “. However, if you don’t use the rich editor, you can grab the very simple but experimental plugin at http://vamos-wentworth.org/downloads/fullstop.zip
