Readability does not render any better than Safari 5. Indeed. I have no personal experience with Readability, so I can't help you there, unfortunately. > Sometimes the beginning gets cut off, sometimes the end.

Using a well-known publishing system for your content would probably remedy that. Something like, say, WordPress. -- Sandman[.net]

The stories are often broken into sections, and Reader only shows the first section. Each section is enclosed in <div>...</div> tags. It looks like Reader stops after the first division. The site already displays the text in readable plain text, with no ads, so there's no loss. -- Barry Margolin, barmar(a)alum.mit.edu Arlington, MA *** PLEASE post questions in newsgroups, not directly to me *** *** PLEASE don't copy me on replies, I'll read them in the group *** |
