Freedom+Democracy=Afganistan?

"Afghanistan has quietly passed a law permitting Shia men to deny their wives food and sustenance if they refuse to obey their husbands' sexual demands, despite international outrage over an earlier version of the legislation which President Hamid Karzai had promised to review."

Afternoon ddd999,

Pardon the "off topic comment"; however, for those of us that help to promote the Paracast and its forum, when you post a thread "without separating the words," i.e., making one long word--it plays hell on various scripts, HTML etc.

Please, if you don't mind in the future, avoid long, "unbroken" strings of words.

Thanks,
Frank

Hi ddd999,

Hi Frank. You lost me there... You are talking about the title of this thread or ...?

Sorry got lost; yes "the title" in this instance. At the UFO Chronicles, we host the the "titles of the most current threads" in our left (slim) side-bar; every once in awhile someone will-publish-an-article-or-thread without separating the words, and it causes "bleed-over" into the main frame with most browsers (if not all).

Basically, the text is unable to "wrap around" because the browser sees it as "one word."

Since new content is published often, it runs through relatively quickly, and returns to normal.

Cheers,
Frank
