Okay....what happened here? (really weird layout issue)

[yg17]

See attached screenshot.

Happening in both Firefox and Safari, as shown in the screenshot, so I don't think I can blame a specific browser. And it's only happening in this one thread, actually, seemingly only on that one page.

And it's happening on my phone too so it's not my computer either. Ad gone haywire?

Anyone else seeing it? WTF is going on?

Having the same problem here,
Mac OS X 10.6.2 with Safari 4.0.5.

But it doesn't slow me down.

Nice find btw, made me laugh.

Yep, same here on Safari and Firefox. Thought it was just me! I'll let an administrator know.

Same thing happened awhile ago, reported here:

Apparently something wrong with a quote tag somewhere.

There's some corrupt code in the last page.

[edit]

Could be .css font stuff too.

It was this post. Easiest way to find out is to switch to Threaded Mode and go through each one until the web page screws up again.

All I did was edit it and save it without making any changes

Both times this messed up, it was a post made by the mobile forums quoting someone else, so somehow that is causing the HTML to screw up.

Is the correct answer. I had the same problem a week ago.

I think I found reproducible steps. On the mobile forums make a post quoting someone and then edit it by adding new text. I just did it by inserting text before the quote tag and it caused the page to screw up.
