In reply to: Not collapsing white space at the end of line ?Finally decided on using Qumana, it seems to serve the purpose well.

In reply to: Not collapsing white space at the end of line ?Thanks iridiax!
I’m using Kompozer on Mac and it does not seem to have an option for word wrapping as explained at:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2545308&group_id=170132&atid=853125
There is a Handcoder/HTML Tidy workaround but apparently not on Mac. Nvu is an earlier version of Kompozer so out of question.
Tried Amaya (standard W3C editing software) but it does not support options for text wrap.
I wonder why the standard W3C compliant HTML generated by Amaya is not rendered correctly by WordPress 🙁
Could there be something in my stylesheet that might be causing it ?
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Classic theme – small letters, word wrapping, category hierarchyThanks for the detailed reply.
Commenting text-transform did the trick.
On categories, I’d like to use the drop-down list box (instead of showing all of them) and still show them in a hierarchical manner. Is that possible ?
Also, is it possible to show the number of entries in each category ?
On query_posts, clarifying my question. How do I use multiple tags in the URL ? For example http://blog.arungupta.me/?tag=running shows all running entries. http://blog.arungupta.me/?tag=running+runsfm should only one entry (that’s how they are tagged) but it’s not. What’s the syntax for that ?
Adding p.tagline {letter-spacing: normal;} only changes the letter spacing normal. But it’s still not wrapping if the window size is reduced. Try reducing the window size of http://blog.arungupta.me and see tagline getting chopped. Any suggestions on that ?

In reply to: Add multiple images – importing blogs from RollerResolved the second question by using multiple files uploader as described at:

Still looking for a resolution on the first question.
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Error in database connectionfigaro, the video was really helpful and explain the potential causes. But I believe the setup on my machine is simple and correct but still getting the same error.
The specified DB_USER has GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES on *.* and MySQL is hosted on localhost.
sanjit, I’m trying everything on my local machine so the blog is not viewable publicly.
Any clues, before I finally give up ?
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Error in database connectionHere is how wp-config.php looks like:
— cut here —
// ** MySQL settings – You can get this info from your web host ** //
/** The name of the database for WordPress */
define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘wordpress’);/** MySQL database username */
define(‘DB_USER’, ‘root’);/** MySQL database password */
define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ”);/** MySQL hostname */
define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘129.145.132.225’);
— cut here —I tried specifying :3306 in DB_HOST but still no luck.
Also tried specifying a username/password that has access to “wordpress” database, still the same error.
What could be missing ?
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Error in database connectionI unzipped wordpress.zip (2.7.1) in the root directory, started MySQL 5.1.30, tried installing WordPress and got the same error as mentioned above. Everything is running on the localhost and tried specifying the host as “localhost” and “127.0.0.1”, with/without port # but keep getting the same error. Also tried with the default root user/no password and create user/password.
Any help will be appreciated ?
