Anderson posted something in another thread (and on MySpace *and* another messageboard) that looks fine to him (and Sankofa) but looks like this for me:

Here's the thread (starting with the last 2 posts on page 1 of the thread):

Anyone know what the deal is? Are my IE settings jacked up or something? I tinkered with the Encoding option under "View" in the toolbar but nothing seemed to make the original post look normal.

Anyone?

Nope its bad here.

Ando did you copy and past from another forum? Maybe SB? or Myspace?

occasionally thier coding can leave artifacts

I pasted if from a text box not unlike the one I'm typing in now.

I see 'Bulletin' posts that are similar to this quite a bit on MySpace...usually when copy/pasted.

Yeah, I don't think its your browser's issue...it usually goes back to whoever posted.

I have a couple sites I manage that depending on the browser I am doing the cut/paste from, can get some artifacts.

It's likely that the font isn't supported. Whatever font was cut and pasted or copy and pasted into the reply section has a character that looks like a space in that font, but is a different character in this one. That may not be the case, but it seems likely. Who knows how those things are parsed on other sites.
