My stylesheet has gone crazy

  • I was going to cpoy somthing and then it said something about clipboard and I clicked yes, then the whole css was like line 1-1300 and then 1-……beneath that. It started all over.
    Now when I try to look at it, the dashboard stops working each time

    Does it just count to 1500 lines?
    And start from 1 again? What has happened

    Can a faulty css cause that the whole website ( dashboard) stops.
    I need to use ctrl/alt/del to remove it.

    It start on line 1 three times. Is that the way it should be.

    The editor was different on 2.8 than on 2.7? With colour and lines to the left?

    Does someone knows this problem.

    I copy and paste my stylesheet, then i get a message box asking me wether to accept or decline the page getting access to the clipboard???

    If I hit the no, yes or box cross, it jumps and leaves a v in the css. And all lines have many lines of space between them

    Now I got this message

    res://ieframe.dll/acr_depnx_error.htm#kjagen.com,https://www.kjagen.com/wordpress/wp-admin/theme-editor.php

    and then the window closes.

    All happens when i try to copy and paste in the style.css editor

    What`s going on?

    Any suggetions?

    Do I have to install wordpress again or what is this clipboard thing.

    Use ftp to replace whatever file got messed up while you were editing it with a fresh copy from the web (redownload WordPress and/or your theme).

    Thankls for the answer.
    I have done that. But the same problem is there.

    When I try to edit ( copry and paste code) it asks wether I accept or decline the webpage getting access to the clipboard. It`s the same wether I hit yes or no; the cursor jumps and leaves a “v” in the spot I was going to paste code.

    And after that it`s huge gaps between each line of code..

    The new editor got lines 1-1500 to the left??? And code has diffrent colours? These are new features in 2.8? Right?

    I have upgraded to the new IE. Could the problem be there?
    The page hangs or closes when I try to edit css or any other theme files

    Try doing the editing on your local system using a free text editor like Notepad++ which has all the syntax highlighting you need, and then upload it to the server to the appropriate folder, instead of trying to do it online.

    That way you’ll be free from such hiccups!

    S.K

    If the wordpress editor is causing you troubles try to edit your template files offline with notepad++ and then upload to your theme folder.

    edit (kichu beat me to it)

    Xamataca,

    We think alike LOL.

    OK

    It has never been a problem before I uploaded to 2.8
    It seems to do with that new line feature?
    Noone experienced that clipboard questions?

    Can I use frontpage too?
    Do you use offline for pages as well, or just php and css?

    Another problem, I tested the site in Opera and it moves a bit from page to page

    kjagen,

    You may use the post edit box for the content, but use only offline editor for PHP and CSS files.
    I have no experience with Frontpage which is a Wysiwyg editor, but is assigned as a default program for opening css files by Windows.

    Each one to his cuppa!

    Xmataca,

    You are more succinct and to the point!

    S.K

    AVOID wysywyg editors when coding/editing PHP and CSS files; although they seem to be helpful and fast they prevent you learning / understanding how HTML, CSS, PHP or JS works when you code them by hand. ??
