Blockquote and validation problem

Are you running any plugins that modify post content on your other journal?

I have very few plugins on that journal. You think that could be it?

I’m turning in for the evening, work in the morning. I’ll check back then.

Thanks for all the help so far.

I have no idea. Textile and Markdown both do some serious modification to your post content, but both have their own, proprietary bloquote tags. But, anyway, it doesn’t sound like you’re using them.

You could try disabling each plugin in turn to figure it out. It’d be nice to know what the actual difference is. Or… you could just switch to putting your blockquotes on new lines :)

blockquote is on a new line ??

Not knowing exactly what it did, and prone to clicking things just to see what they do, I activated textile about 3 weeks ago. Perhaps that’s what has screwed everything up.

I’ve deactivated it, and now I’m left with a bunch of other errors, but I’ll work through them one by one.

If I’ve learned one things from validating sites in the past, it’s one error can cause many more. Hopefully I’ll stumble on it quickly

Thanks for all the help, and when I’ve finished correcting the other errors, if blockquote still won’t validate, I’ll come back and cry some more.

It’s all fixed and validating

The textile appeared to be screwing up the blockquote. Once that was deactivated, it validated.
Of course once the textile was deactivated that opened up a bunch of other problems, specifically those with the thumbprint plugin.

Won’t go into to much detail, but I had to reinsert something back in the plugin to make it validate without textile activated.

I’m going to have a beer now ??

Thanks.
