Update: This paragraph is a test to see if I can reproduce it. italic ... Yep, confirmed.

Solution: "Enforce proper nesting of HTML" in Display Settings. D'oh!

The node 11115734 contains an unclosed <i> in the "EDIT" at the top. However, the HTML for this node differs depending on whether I am logged in vs. logged out. When logged in, it's

<p> <b>EDIT:</b> <br /> I <strike>use</strike> <i>used</i> bareword filehandles. <i>In the course of this discussion I was convinced not to do so.<i> </i></i></p>

But when logged out, it's

<p> <b>EDIT:</b> <br /> I <strike>use</strike> <i>used</i> bareword filehandles. <i>In the course of this discussion I was convinced not to do so.<i> </p>

What's going on? Of course the "fix" is to correct the unclosed <i>, but I'm surprised at the rendering difference.

    what I see in the XML of that node is that the closing i-tag is missing a slash

    >  I was convinced not to do so.<i> </p> <p> I've seen many Perl

    The automatically included closing tags are IMHO an auto-correction from FF, closing all <i> prior to the closing </p> and then reopening them again.

    <i>In the course of this discussion I was convinced not to do so.<i> </i></i></p><i><i> <p>

    The effect is the same for me logged in or out.

    But you may want to check your "HTML Related Options" settings in Display Settings

      Ah, yes, that was it, thanks! Right after posting I had the feeling that this was probably a dumb question :-) I have "Enforce proper nesting of HTML" turned on.

    Corrected node 11115734. The error was not visible in the node's preview.
