I have 1 post in this week's Shed of the week thread.

The top line doesn't read correctly despite me editing it 3 0r 4 times.

when I look at my post in the edit,it reads correctly but not in the forum.

How odd !

Only 2 owners ad says.That's a small positive.

If true,at least it hasn't had 10 owners ,some being cabbies,although unlikely to "cab" a 4.3 V8.
Is that correct? if so then suggest you clean out your cache and view again.

When I try to edit ,it reads as it should,"That's a small positive",

not as above.

I deleted those words and re-typed and it still comes out wrong.

That's what you get for having a space in your name.
(probably)


P.S. - you're right, when the text is quoted it looks fine, but something has messed up the formatting. I can't even see anything odd if I dump it as hex.

I'm holding on to my precious space till the Cosworth goes to someone else.

I'm not that bothered about it,just thought it was worth mentioning as I may be a computer duffer but

not sure how it's my fault.

Didn't want the grammar police picking me up for it either.

I have changed it by editing it myself and all worked fine - so not sure what was going on. Though I did move the T away from the full stop...

Anyway, all looks perfect now and will experiment to see if I can recreate.
