Problem with the Inkling Markets chart widgets

Chris F. Masse November 19th, 2008

When inserted in a WordPress blog post, they create a perturbation in the force —the size of the font of the webpage they are implemented in is slightly augmented. Case in point: look here, and spot the augmented horizontal menu bar.

No more Inkling Markets chart widgets on Midas Oracle until:

this problem is solved;
their chart widgets go into feeds.

Nathan Kontny, hurry up to fix that —the great Chris Masse is waiting.

The same thing happened on my blog, too. I figured it was the Inkling widget that did it, but haven’t had time to verify that yet. Sounds like the exact same problem.

I first thought it was the MSNBC widget put up by Nigel… but then I published many HubDub widgets yesterday to push the MSNBC widget away from the frontpage… and the problem remained with the Inkling widget… I downloaded the post with the Inkling widget… and it was the culprit.

A widget should not alter the rendering of the webpage it is inserted in. It’s crazy.
