Cannot Figure Site's Formatting

by TheHidden · in Site Feedback · 03/13/2010 (7:17 pm) · 6 replies

When I look at pages like http://tdn.garagegames.com/wiki/Beginner/Torque_Intro, I can not figure out what the formatting is saying.

Examples:
'$defaultGame = “tutorial.base”;'
type in “loadMyMission();” and hit Apply.
Next, select Terrain – TerrainBlock

Is it just me?
Thanks.

Your browser is unable to read UTF-8. If you're on an old IE, upgrade, preferably into Real Browser™ territory. If you're on any of the major modern browsers, you might have some weird plugin interfering. Or perhaps you just forced your browser to read everything as ISO-8859-1?

Using the latest Firefox and Internet Explorer. None are using addons and not set any ISO setting. Tried two computers too. Same results.

It appears someone has messed with tdn. It's not a browser issue.

Glad it was not my head then. Anyone I should notify about this, email them directly, or are you a web mdoerator of the site?

@Hidden, TDN is currently under no maintenance, but I've checked some of the compromised material, and for the record, if you just ignore the weird characters, you should be fine.

For example:
Quote:
'$defaultGame = “tutorial.base”;'
type in “loadMyMission();” and hit Apply.
Next, select Terrain – TerrainBlock
Would be:
Quote:
'$defaultGame = tutorial.base;'
type in loadMyMission(); and hit Apply.
Next, select Terrain TerrainBlock
Not the best, but at least the essencial info is there.
