Italicing words inside Tabview when using bulleted list not possible?

RedAvatar 04 Dec 2009 07:59

When I put any word in italic inside a list in tabview, it simply ignores the code:

Test

• This text is in italic and in a bulleted list

test

This text is in italic and in a definition list

1. This text is in italic and in a numbered list

Same code outside Tabview:

• This text is in italic and in a bulleted list

test

This text is in italic and in a definition list

1. This text is in italic and in a numbered list

Is there any work-around for this? Or a fix? It's highly annoying since wikis tend to use italic for names and the list will be often used.

Thanks for reporting this bug!

Is there any work-around for this?

Yes, just create a span element:

* [[span style="font-style: italic;"]]This text is in italic and in a bulleted list[[/span]]

Aah thanks - it's a lot of code to replace it but it's good to know it's there :) I think I'll just drop italics for now.

I would try to "include" short pages in the tabview 's

and than test the italic - if it works…

or you can just place the whole text in a div (although im not sure if you just making certain line italic, or whole blocks)

News

• some test text
• some test text

[[tabview]]
[[tab News]]
[[div style="font-style: italic;"]]
* some test text
* some test text
[[/div]]
[[/tab]]
[[/tabview]]

Curiously the italicising works with the include for a definition list but not the numbered or bullet lists as I tested here. I think the div method is probably the easiest and does at least work.

Yeah that works - too bad it's so much extra code for single words (which is what I'd be using it for). It's not so much a problem for me but for the people editing my pages who will be confused why their words won't be italic when they clearly used the right tags.
