Comment	> Your issue is bogus. The algorithim for dimming signatures recently > changed from dimming everything below the first signature line to > dimming everything below the last signature line. It has nothing to > do with quoted vs. unquoted. The new algorithim makes more sense > because it won't result in an entire message being dimmed if the > signature appears on top. Not to start a holy war, but it is > definitely preferred etiquette to quote under previous text, so the > user's signature should always appear at the bottom of the message. > > > > However, your message does bring up another issue - namely, we > shouldn't be dimming signatures in quoted text anyway if just for the > simple fact we start mixing closed/unclosed div/span tags and the > page won't render properly. i.e., in this case, pseudocode looks > like this: > > > > <div class="quoted1"> > > <div class="quoted2"> > > HTML > > <span class="signature"> > > Signature > > </div> > > </div> > > </span> > > > > This is a severe limitation with the current Text_Filter scheme since > each filter doesn't (and can't) know if a previous filter has > inserted div/span tags that may intersect the current text. Yuck. > > > > Possible solution - we have to do signature dimming in the highlight > quote filter. This would ensure we weren't setting a signature span > across quoted div's.
