    The text editor looks funy

    Today I upgraded my internet explorer from 6 to 7 and later on I tried to edit my signature. I noticed that the text editor looks kind of funny (see the image). Well I tested the text editor for posting a new thread and it is fine. Does any one has this problem or it is just me?

    I've seen it in IE 7 as well. Obviously a difference in the way IE 7 renders the divs being used on the page.

    This can happen in Firefox too - it is basically due to the forum software being designed for IE6 (which does a few things the "wrong" way), so browsers that conform to standards actually show it incorrectly.

    From what I have heard, when the forum software is next upgraded this issue should be corrected.
