Strange formatting bug ... i think was created by Andrew Rogers
Hi.  I am real new to K2.  All has been good except for this problem.  When i click on *some* tags, the page formatting goes all weird.This page shows the tags that are supposed to appear in the left nav bar position imposed over the top of the content text: awv.tenoutoften.org/index.php?option=com_k2&view=itemlist&task=tag&tag=LawHowever, other tags work fine: awv.tenoutoften.org/index.php?option=com_k2&view=itemlist&task=tag&tag=Windows%20ServerAnd the home page works fine too: awv.tenoutoften.org/Is this a problem with my template (www.yootheme.com)?  Or something else?ThanksAndrew

It seems that some tag (a div tag), probably inside the content, doesn't close correctly or is missing. Could you try enabling the Cleanup parameter through the general K2 parameters to see if it corrects the problem?

Ah, yes, you are quite right. I have a problem though. The tag that is causing the problem is thetag. When i remove it all is well. However it is thetag that I am using for the formatting of the text. So removing that means i just get fairly plain looking text.
I am not sure how to get around this one...

Many thanks for your reply too!
Andrew

Hmm, perhaps i should usetags or perhaps the problem pages are due to

tag not being closed properly in my document. I am auto generating those documents via a script in MS Word. Might check there.

I'm having the same problem. But it happens with all my tags. When you click on them the formatting is completely removed. No template, just plain text and pictures. I've tried turning Introtext HTML cleanup (tag strip) andon but it just removes all the pictures from my posts and still has the issue with the tags. Lil help?

It turned out that my problem was that the <div> tags in my page (which was generated by a MS Word maco i wrote) were not always quite right.  I am guessing some were not closed correctly.  Changing the <div> tag to <p> tag and applying the class to the paragraph solved the problem.  But fixing the <div>s would have worked too I think.

I gave up on this problem a while ago, but am determined to conquer in now. So, is the in <p> and <div> tags in the postings that weren't closed, or in the template? I have over a thousand postings, don't want to go through all of them....

 

Thanks for your help!

Yes, unclosed DIV tags were the problem.  Changing it to <p> tags worked (even though they werent closed properly either) because a P tag doesnt effect the layout of the template DIV tags.

Was it in the postings or in the template that the DIV tag wasn't closed in? I'm really dreading going through 1000+ postings for something that might work. Thanks for your response!
