Caption width keeps maxing out

  • I was editing this post earlier http://shimworld.wordpress.com/2010/06/23/penan-lost-or-found/ and as soon as WP finished updating the blog, the captions went haywire. I’ve had this happen before with other themes and this is the first encounter on Enterprise Theme. The original post was composed on Windows Live Writer and it seems the more I tried to clean up the image properties (removed Class and Styles), the properties are inserted back and the problems return all over again.

    <div class="mceTemp mceIEcenter" style="text-align: center;"><dl class="wp-caption aligncenter"> <dt class="wp-caption-dt"><img title="penantalk-001" src="http://shimworld.files.wordpress.com/2010/06/penantalk001.jpg" border="0" alt="penantalk-001" width="600" height="416" /></dt> <dd class="wp-caption-dd">Most of the Penan craft are made from a complex network of intricately twisted rattan.</dd> </dl></div>

  • Update: To overcome whatever’s causing this problem, I’ve had to un-caption each image previously captioned image, delete the entry in Class and Style, OK and then re-enter the captions – sigh!

  • Yuck! That’s a pain. Thanks for sharing what you had to do.
