I noticed a something strange in one of my Fan Fiction threads just a few days ago. Quote boxes are not working properly. Only part of the quoted text appears in the box and the rest of it appears outside. Take a look here: https://india-forums.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1144102&TPN=45

This problem appears throughout this thread on multiple pages, even those that were posted months ago. I'm certain that the quotes appeared properly when I first posted the replies, so I'm not sure what changed now.
I tried looking in other FFs including some of my own, but I didn't see this problem anywhere else. Is it just a problem with this specific thread? How can that be?
Please help!

It may have so happened in case the post didnt had proper closing tags for the QUOTE and to avoid breaking the entire page layout the system is removing the unclosed tags.

Vijay

hi vijay bhai to avoid entire page layout remove unclosed tags is not a proper solution according to me couse it will harm on air content(Previously Posted Content). in place of this type removal you can try CSS 2.0 Attribute "Max-width" Or Any Other Fimilar Tags this wil blocks post reply area to go out side then defined value.
Example : max-width:500px;
This Will Block Reply Area Not Go Out Side 500 px Width. Same Way You Can Add Image Script That Image Larger Then 500px Wil Appear As 320 px X 240 px Thumbnail View Only.
Adding All This Wil Block Your Site's Content Area Fixed It Wil Never Cross Defined Limits.

Thanks for the quick response Vijay bhaiya, but I still have no idea what to do. When I go to "Edit Post," the end tags are in their proper place and are just fine, appearing like this: [ / Q U O T E ]. And as I mentioned before, some of these posts are months old, and I never noticed this before. There's definitely something strange going on with that thread.

Hi Hardik,

The solution that you are saying is not the best option for us. Now consider this that the whole Page is already in transitional XHTML format and its a table less page and the content is aligned using CSS. Now if you start a DIV tag and then do not close it. That itself will throw the page layout for a toss even if you use the Width property in CSS.

Most of the posts are correctly handled and its just like 0.05% of them will be facing this kind of problem.

Cheers,
Vijay

Oops, never mind. I thought you meant that I had not put the proper tags.
Thanks so much for trying to fix this!

I Completly Knew Vijay Dear That India-Forums Is Table Less Page Design. The Attribute Maximum Width Is Introduced Attribute For Creating Table Outlook In DIV Tag(Attribute Only Works With XHTML Page). Either It Is 0.05 % Or Not But Some Time It's Became Large Loss For You And This What I Suggested Is Already Tested In My Own Projects For Blogging Comments In My Own E-Commerce Company HKWEBS Since Last 3 Years And 7 Month Back With 100 % Gurranted No Distracktion In Page Outlook.
If You Need Example Off Outlook By Used This Attribute Tell Me I Wil Create That For You.

Hey Hardik, 😊

Well I am not raising doubts on your understanding about HTML or CSS and I really wish all the best for your ecommerce company HKWEBS 😊.

But we have to understand here that we are talking about millions of user generated posts which we dont know how they are structured. And it further complicates if they are copied and pasted from some other page for reference or Word Document. And if you understand that processing the whole thing and removing unwanted stuff and making it more crisp and XHTML compliant.

And coming to the problem an extra starting <DIV> or an extra end </DIV> can not just break the alignment but also is not XHTML compliant.

BTW I was always wondering why you always write In This Way Format Where Each Word Starts With A Capital Letter And Which Makes Reading Them A Bit Difficult. 😃

Cheers,
Vijay
