Enable italics on Hermes, plz.

Talk about whatever is on your mind, if it doesn't go anywhere else.

No need to lock this. But as already stated, italics do work in hermes. Your problem must lie elsewhere.

The i tags wrap text with a span tag that has an inline style="font-style: italic". An inline style like that should take precedence over anything else, so the style's probably not being overridden. I can't imagine what the problem is.

Italics have always worked fine for me in Hermes.
You use, like, a Mac or something, right? Maybe it's something to do with fonts and how they get along with your system / browser?

Sorry, couldn't resist! Seriously, though, should this be locked by now?

Not necessarily, but thanks for contributing!

With the forum change we decided to ease up on locking topics. If a topic has served it purpose then people should generally stop posting in it, *cough*, and it will sail down the active lists and disappear. Though it will still be open if it is ever needed in the future. A topic shouldn't need to be locked to stop people posting in it. Members should just use their own discretion to know when a topic is 'dead'.

Second, we still don't really know why incluye can't see italics.

I've also got 9.62. Maybe it's a bug in the Mac version. I can deal with it.

Have you tried using a different browser, just to check if it is some glitch with Opera?

Oh, guys, that reminds me, I put in some extra formatting for Mac users using Opera. If their name is anything containing "cluye", then the italics won't work.

I think we've established that you're gonna go ahead and believe whatever the hell you want, regardless of what reason might tell you.
