What's the deal with hyperlinks turning blue when you edit a post?

I don't get it... what does that URL have to do with editing a post? That's the page which comes up when you click the 'preview skin' button in your display preferences. The reason the links are blue is it's a stripped down preview without the header. In the case of the default template, the header contains a link to http://www.shroomery.org/smarty/templates/css/main.css which has some additional style rules not covered in the BB stylesheet.

I get that stripped down version of the forum after I edit a post (the edit confirmation page).

Hmmm, next time a page comes up weird like that please do a View | Source and e-mail it to ythan at shroomery dot org so I can see what the problem is.

Well I can confirm the problem is somewhere on your end... the required stylesheet is included on line 6, and once I fixed up the relative URLs it loaded fine in all my browsers. Sounds like maybe an Opera thing? Sorry I'm not very good at giving you closure today heh.

Gotcha--but just to make sure we're on the same page, here: this is what I see everytime I edit a post

It's like that that for Opera AND IE--it's been like that since I started using the site...

Yeah... in addition to the link color, you can tell that 'main.css' isn't being loaded because the Privacy Policy, FAQ, Site Map etc. are showing up as a bullet list. They are styled in main.css so its absence would cause this problem. But if you look at the source you uploaded, line 6 loads that file and it's the proper syntax, it's in the proper place (the header) and the CSS itself validates just fine. I'm really stumped. Anyone else having this problem?

Update: this doesn't just happen for the edit confirmation page--I've noticed pages appearing this way as they're beginning to load up (so it's like the page just doesn't fully load for the edit confirmation page).

This doesn't occur in Firefox, so I'm uploading the Firefox source for you to take a look at. I'm also including an HTML validation report for the Opera one--if that's of any help.

For some reason when I saved the source of modifypost.php in Firefox, it transformed into a "We cannot proceed" page 
Anyway, I managed to save the real modifypost.php by manually copying and pasting it from Firefox into a TXT document (as opposed to just saving it) and saving it and giving the TXT document a PHP extension.

I'm sorry but I just don't think this is a problem on our end. Every page has the exact same header, there's no reason it should work on some pages but not on others. I'm also not aware of anyone else who's experiencing this issue, which is the main thing that would make me take a second look at it.

Heh, I wish I could have taken the time to really take note, but while I was visiting my friend in Buffalo this past week I stopped by the Shroomery once and this happened.

Hey JunkFood, I think I tracked down this bug and fixed it. The problem was that Infopop, in their efforts to be all 1337, used XML-style self-closing meta refresh tags. Apparently some new browsers don't like this, at least with a doctype of HTML Transitional; they escape the closing tag instead which then messes up the stylesheet declaration. I cleaned up all the instances of this and it appears to be fixed for me. Please let me know your results.

Yeah, it's fixed alright 
I just don't understand why it wasn't doing it for you since we use the same browser Opera 9.10/20
