Your signature came up in Employee Lounge, Edd. Nate was having trouble with it, so Alcar did some fixing, then decided to add marquees to the list of illegal sig content, hence preventing anyone from adding their own. It also prevented you from editing your own sig ever again.

Part of the problem, I suspect, was that the <marquee> tag had both a ‘width’ attribute (set to 20%) and the inline CSS ‘width: 200px’. No idea how you managed to get it to 75 pixels wide with those. The only thing I can think of is that either Nate or Alcar altered it without telling you or me.

Incidentally, the ‘width’ attribute has long been deprecated, ever since CSS came out. The <font> tag is also deprecated. <marquee> isn’t even an official HTML tag, and goes against web accessibility standards. You gotta accept there will be teething problems.

And for the record, I thought it looked better with a width of 200 pixels.
