[Approved] Font size for bbcode "code" blocks is rather small...

Hey Lawrence :)
Is there a way you can adjust the font size of the bbcode 'code' blocks to make it larger by default? It's pretty small right now.
Here's an example:

The raen in Spaen lies moastly in the plaens


There once was a lady named Bright


Whose speed was much faster than light


She departed one day, in a relative way,
and returned on the previous night!



Thanks!

Changes updated, let me know if the new CSS settings are better suited for code display. :)

It hasn't changed.

Line 324 meridian/css/index.css add font-size: 12px;  That'll clear it up and make it a legible size.

It hasn't changed.  As a matter of fact, there is no font-size set in CSS for code.bb_code {

Well that's strange, it works in Internet Explorer but not Google Chrome / Firefox. It's set in EM, I'll look into it some more hold up.

I've always found issues using em.  Don't know why but i've always stuck to px as it's done me well.

Clear your browser's cache, is the font larger now?

Didn't even have to clear... all good now.  Thread can be closed as this is resolved

I'll wait for a confirmation from TallShip or wait a day or two, then mark it as resolved. :)

Might be another browser he's using that may not recognize the changes. It's possible.

Shame on you Lawrence. Internet Exploder... Really? LOL. Friends don't let friends do windows ;)

Seriously though, thanks, and it looks good too. There was another issue where I had to go back and edit all of my posts immediately after submitting because all of my posts were double spaced following a double CR (which seemed to issue the equivalent of two </p> tags), although when I only did a single CR, it acted more like a </br> than a </p>.

Anyway, that seems to have been taken care of as well (although I don't know if that resulted from separate fix or not).

Formatting looks great now! Thanks again :)

Where were you when I needed you in 1995? ;) (This post was typed up on Debian Squeeze Mozilla Firefox)

Seems like everything's all good! I'll mark this as resolved and lock the topic since it's a permanent fix.
