Considering the amount of people who use firefox, this is an issue. Everything gets squashed up like it doesn't know what a [br] </br> is.

It's not just my shit-ass html either because it looks fine in the forums - and I still have to insert manual breaks between lines AS WELL as the tags.

In the top screenshot, the two paragraphs are squashed up together. The picture is also squashed up against the paragraph above it. It looks fine in Internet Explorer and only happens in Firefox. It's also not me being shit at html because it's fine on the forum but not on the frontpage.
 
What next? Skulls will have to be cracked, that's what next!

oh god, everybody run for the high ground.

THIS IS NOT A DRILL
 
What next?

I seek solace in Munro's warm embrace. Maybe.
 
Just a sec, I'll check in konqueror to see if its just firefox that has a problem. :p

EDIT: ya, it also looks broke in konqueror. Not really a big problem, though.
 
Never even noticed it tbh lol ... barely go to the front page of hl2.net anymore, tis usually straight to the forums :p

Like I told you before mate there's no such thing as a </br> tag stop using it! [br] breaks the line you just need two of these (e.g. [br]) to show it correctly. The front page parses HTML only. If you have a line gap in the news submission form it will not carry this across on to the frontpage however it does on the forum. So please, when submitting news posts just use HTML and don't leave gaps so it will show correctly on both the main page and the forums.

Also, please stop using photobucket for images that's what we have the image upload option for. If you have any further problems see me or post in the content writer forum, that's what it's there for.
 
Actually, since your page claims to use xhtml, it should be [br](All xhtml elements that do not come in pairs must end in a slash :))

If I use the image upload I can never get it to be an url at the same time. D:

But okay!
 
Just edit the html afterwards giving it a link :)

*I'll look into adding a "add http link" option when adding images in the news script.
 
I'll try again next time there's the chance, but it never seems to work. Http link option seems like a good idea. Alternatively, we could upload pics to hl2.net....
 
I mean add the html tags to include a html link around the uploaded image.
