online docs unreadable

Issue #286 resolved
Former user created an issue

It's the CSS, of course. Please don't use bloody fixed pixel sizes, huh? You want it to look like a book, fine, PRINT IT. This is the web - if I wanted text set to an eye-straining size I would have set my default fonts that way. You appear to have tamed Trac's stock CSS which, in my every other experience with it, commits that stupidity, so how come the documentation, much more likely to be read at length, suffers from this?

I'm going to go see if I can get the docs in a readable form now. Turning CSS off, which usually makes such badly-designed-CSS pages readable, doesn't really do the job here - apparently you're not only setting stupid font sizes, you're also misusing CSS instead of employing semantic markup (remember, that was why CSS was invented, eh?), so it's an ugly mess that way.

At least there aren't any <blink> tags...

Thanks!

    Maybe the problem has been fixed, who knows. But, every browser I test the docs on they look fantastic. Can we close this rant?
