MS Explorer / WordPress / Blockquote

If you use Microsoft Internet Explorer, you might occasionally, have a problem that the left margin of this blog appears truncated. Normally, I catch this fairly quickly and correct it – it is caused by the combination listed in the title of this post. MS Internet Explorer for Windows is (as far as I know) the only browser that can’t handle paragraphs in blockquotes – something which WordPress is very prone to insert.

The solution, when I notice it is happening, is very simple – just remove all the linefeeds in the blockquote, which Wordpress converts to HTML paragraph tags and the problem goes away! (I have corrected the previous post, which had this “feature”.)
