Messages not displayed

I have been using Firefox 2 and the Guestbook worked very well.
When I upgraded to Firefox 3 all the messages were not displayed in the Guestbook. The same thing is true of Safari and the new Google Chrome browser. The only things remaining are the posters email addresses and any smileys used.
I would guess that this is something to do with the font used.
Where can I change this so that it is once again visible in the new versions of browsers? I have had a quick look but without success so far. I think it might be very easy but I'm no expert with PHP!

Many thanks for a fine Guestbook

Hey George,

I suspect there is something else going on with your system. But as far as the font control, you can modify it by changing the file "style.css".


Thanks,
Pete

Thanks for the swift reply Pete!

I think there may some clash perhaps with css files as I am embedding the guestbook in my own html page.
I would appreciate your expertise or I might end up breaking something with my experiments!
I did try editing the guestbook.php file locally to change the font color on the first entry and it made all entries visible for some reason when using Google Chrome.

Many thanks again

Ah ok, now I see it. The ironic thing is that the font didn't disappear in FireFox and Safari until I installed the Google Chrome Browser! So it is basically caused by changes that the Google Chrome Installer makes to your system! :shock:

Open up your style sheet file "blit1001-28591.css". Find the following segment:

Replace it with the following:

That should do it for you.

Enjoy!

Hi Pete,

I had a good search through the css file and could not find the segment you mentioned. I'm crossed eyed now and getting rather frustrated.

Incidentally, the problem manifested itself when FF3 was first made available some time ago and not just when Chrome was installed.
I have had someone else also make the comment recently about the missing text and I put it down to FF3 still having a few issues so I recommended to him that he stay with FF2 for the time being!

Thanks again for your help, I hope you can track this down for me some more. I'm looking through the files to see if I can spot anything but so far no success.

I modified the css file for you. Here it is:





Just download, rename the file to "blit1001-28591.css" and upload it to your site.
