I found a very weird issue with the NeoCodes 2 column design. Whenever I enter in a few dashes to any title, the home page layout gets completely misaligned.

This happens only in Firefox. And it has to be a certain number of dashes next to each other or in total in the title of a listing.

I can make it happen every time if I put 3 dashes in a title with no dashes already in it. It always happens when I put 3 dashes next to each other but then it comes and goes if I add more dashes somewhere else in the title. It's as if a specific number of dashes cause all sorts of problems.

I might be going crazy but I tested this a ton of times. Can someone confirm this?

Can you give us an example or screenshot if you prefer. Do you mean the oblique symbol or commonly known as a backslash. If you do then it may have something to do with it often being used as an escape character.

I found the issue so you can disregard the post. In home.tpl I commented out the popular and new listings sections (<!--). Turns out when dashes are used in the title it un-comments the html comment.

Always nice to hear there was a simple answer.
