Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

Clear your cache and restart the browser.

Is cache the same as history (or temp internet files)? I did both of those and I'm still getting the wonky screen.

The exact wording & menu placement will depend on what browser you're using.

On Firefox (on a PC), it's under Tools-->Clear Private Data-->Cache.

On IE, it's Tools-->Internet Options-->[Temporary Files]-->Delete Files-->Delete All Offline Content.

Thanks Jess - I wasn't doing that last step. However, it's still not looking right. It may be something to do with our security here at work; I'm not sure. I can learn to live with it if it stays this way.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I feel like an idiot, but never having done anything resembling programming since college Computer Science. Which was 25 years ago this fall:

If I want spoiler font to show up in a color other than white, I click on "Edit personal css." Then, in the box, I type in (or C&P from P-C's post)

.spoiler {
color: #FFFFFF;

replacing #FFFFFF with the color code of my choice (from P-C's link). Correct? My computer won't explode?

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

You'll need to close it

.spoiler { color: #FFFFFF; }

Thanks, Deena. Let me give it a try.

Trust my rage

Fred, that's exactly what I did. I didn't even close it and it worked fine.

This whole experience reminds me of when I first arrived at this board and realized that I would have to learn some HTML if I was ever going to post a link - initially painful but ultimately a good skill to have.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Fred, that's exactly what I did. I didn't even close it and it worked fine.

Please close it. Someday, you may be using a browser that (correctly) ignores your css addition, and you'll spend way too much time trying to figure out why.
