When I veiw the NetNote in my FF browser, it APPEARS fine, proper size andlayout, graphics are in place etc. But the copy has missing spaces between words. I made a comment before thinking they were simple typos but when viewing it on TR, the copy is fine and words are properly spaced.

Here's an example from how it displays in FF.

"...a WYSIWYG style editor and to allowmembers to edit their comments on blogs. You asked for thesefeatures, and within seven days, you got them!

To kick off our new kick-butt blogs, we'vestarted a new feature in this NetNote called Something to Blog About(thanks to Community editor BethBlakely). It should help you break through the writer's blockand..."

You can see there are quite a few words that are mising spaces, do you think this is a code issue or is it a browser issue?

It's almost like the problem a lot of people have with printing PDF's without the right PS drivers installed.

I'll doublecheck my versions of the mails. I use FF and Gmail to view my TR mails, so I'll check it out.

Thanks,

I think I've seen a couple emails like that, too. I'm using mutt as my mail client, though, with a POP3 email account, so it's not Firefox. It probably has something to do with the way the netnote email scripts are scraping the site content files and formatting them for email.

Of course, I might be imagining things. I haven't done more than skim my netnote emails in a while.

Of course it's not a brower setting, otherwise other sites would do it too.

I like to point at me or my sofware as the possible issue first. All support calls claim it is YOUR problem and it's often the user. I prefer the other way, is it MY problem? Did I do something wrong? Oh no, NOW what have I done?!

It's not reverse psychology or anything, these guys are adults, but just another way of bitching politely. ;)
