What happened to the code styling?

[Victor Font]

For the past couple of days, the code styling font color is almost too light to read. Older posts have black text on a gray background. Recent posts have gray text on a gray background. I also noticed the the code is now wrapped in pre and code elements. Older posts were only wrapped in pre. Can someone please fix the color so we can read it easily again?

I noticed that the font colour on the code snippets makes it very hard to read. Hopefully I'm not the only one who might be a little visually challenged! 🙂

I'm not sure where else to mention this.

.entry-content code {
    background-color: #222;
    /* color: #ddd;  remove this */
}

I've been using Stylebot to adjust for this. Also for the too-wide (IMO) presentation of posts and replies with the new wider site.

Hi Susan,

Some testing here:

<?php echo 'Hello World'; ?>

<h1>Hello World</h1>

#id .class {
    display: block;
    float: left;
}

The above samples are copied from the cited FAQ section 5, but do not work unless also wrapped in backticks as this CSS sample shows (, Use of backticks is not documented in the FAQ:

#id .class {
    display: block;
    float: left;
}

Plain Text wrapped in code backticks << using the "code" button in the editor
Each of these "backticked" samples is barely legible.  It seems obvious that both the FAQ and the forum styling fall short for sharing code snippets outside of Gists. Sharing snippets this way is likely to be problematic.
