 This page describes known problems and issues with the Wlug Wiki theme and proposes resolutions for them. In general while we endeavour to make this Wiki work (and look OK) on all browsers and platforms we do have limited resources and time, In cases where trade offs have to be made this site will be optimised to work best on Mozilla Firefox under Linux. 
  
 For things we should do to the code (rather than just to the theme), see WlugWikiCustomisations.

-!! Form/focus problems  
-When you are told to sign in to edit a page, the top "sign in" form has the focus, not the one in the main page body, and that one submits to a different place and you end up at the home page instead of editing the page you wanted.

 !! Font Sizes 
 There is a known issue with font sizes using both Firefox and IE in Windows. This is caused by the Wiki stylesheets use of the ''medium'' font size keyword. Unfortunately these browsers use 16 point as their default font size making the wiki text look abnormally large. Due to the current output generated by PHPwiki using nested tags we cannot use a keyword such as ''smaller''. While this would fix the problem for Windows users it is highly likely to shift the problem to Linux users.
