    Cock up with Tips

    I don't know if this formatting of the tips is intentional (I hope not) but damn it sucks frankly. Why is everything including code centered!?!?

    A small selection...

    Awful, please change it back to left aligned!

    Weird, it's definitely left-aligned for me (IE 5.5).

    I've attached the page source I get for tip 131. It's left-aligned to me. Try renaming it to .htm and viewing it.

    I myself think this is annoying. Look to the right side.
