:::''In HTML'', SPANs would have no effect, but who knows what random wiki-parser bug could occur... You removed the SPAN, but I noticed that there were still I tags.

Well, we just plain-out can't get the icons to appear! We put in the template just as we should, but nothing appears, as though it isn't there. ILHI, our coding expert, got some of those coding from your CSS and JS that was related to the coding necessary for these templates and implemented it into ours, but still nothing! Could you just look at the templates and our CSS/JS and see what's wrong? I've left the links on a few Admins' talk pages. By the way, I apologize if you think that I was spamming; we were just trying to get your attention quickly. --[[User:DoorToNothing|<span style="color:navy ;">'''Door'''</span>]][[User:DoorToNothing|<span style="color:dimgray ;">'''To'''</span>]][[User talk:DoorToNothing|<span style="color:darkslategray ;">'''Nothing'''</span>]] 00:39, September 21, 2009 (UTC) | Well, we just plain-out can't get the icons to appear!

:No, man, I understand you just wanted our attention. I don't have time to get on it ''right now'', I'll start tomorrow... But I'm gonna start with the simple possibility that you don't have the images the template uses. If you're using a good, non-IE browser, then you might not even see a broken image icon! Anyway, please do me a favor and reply to this -- so that the moment I get back on here, I get a direct link here and I can start helping you out. I tend to be forgetful sometimes. <span style="background:#AADDAA;display:inline-block;height:16px;padding-right:4px;line-height:1em;position:relative;top:-3px;-moz-border-radius:0 50% 50%"><b> | :No, man, I understand you just wanted our attention.

::Well, here's your reply. Thanks so much, DarvidJCobb. This is something that we've wanted to implement for awhile, and I'm glad that someone can finally help us get it done!

:::I said ''non-''IE, but IE isn't the problem you're having with this template. Though I'd still recommend switching to Firefox. | :::I said ''non-''IE, but IE isn't the problem you're having with this template. Though I'd still recommend switching to Firefox. | ||
:::I figured out what problem you're having, but I've no clue why you're having it. Each page has an HTML H1 holding the article title, as I'm sure you're aware. Somehow, whoever coded [[Template:Era]] managed to shove the template into that H1. I have no clue how they did it, but they did it with Era and with Template:Ratings. The templates are used normally on pages, and the templates' source codes don't have anything that would make them behave like this. | :::I figured out what problem you're having, but I've no clue why you're having it.
