I looked at a post I'd done with a two line caption: http://musing-minds.com/2008/12/24/christmas-eve/ and I had to make a change in the html to get that two line caption working properly. For some reason, in the html, it had the <p> the <br /> and the </p> in the alt= as alt="<p>Norad Tracks Santa<br />Click to see where he is!>" instead of putting any of that into the caption tag. I put it in as caption="<p>Norad Tracks Santa <br /> Click to see where he is!</p>" and it works.
So it seems as if WP is putting the caption html into the alt tag instead of the caption tag. kimsch -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Paul Robinson Sent: Saturday, January 03, 2009 4:07 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [wp-testers] The Captions On Images Ahh I spoke too soon. It seemed to work, but when I've looked back at the page it hasn't. I thought it was supercache but I've cleared it and it doesn't seem to be that. It's very odd. I've never had this problem before. I only posted it here in the testers because I thought it might have been a bug that could be fixed in the 2.7.1 release but maybe it's just me. :( Paul. 2009/1/3 Paul Robinson <[email protected]> > Ahhh.
