    <p>I'm having an issue with my list. I've placed a <code>white-space: nowrap;</code> and a <code>display: inline;</code> where they belong, but for some reason there is still a line break after the <code>notes</code> list item. The output looks like this:</p> <pre><code>4 Months Ago 904 Notes Laughing Squid laughingsquid </code></pre> <p>When it should look like this:</p> <pre><code>4 Months Ago 904 Notes Laughing Squid laughingsquid </code></pre> <p>I cannot figure out what is causing the strange line break in the middle. Any help to clarify the issue and correct it would be awesome.</p> <p>HTML:</p> <pre><code>&lt;div class="meta"&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li class="date"&gt;&lt;i class="icon-time"&gt;&lt;/i&gt; &lt;a href="http://creativeplayground.tumblr.com/post/19181776541/laughingsquid-tifa-the-cat-thinks-shes-a-dog" title="Creative Playground"&gt;4 months ago&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li class="notes"&gt;&lt;i class="icon-heart"&gt;&lt;/i&gt; &lt;a href="http://creativeplayground.tumblr.com/post/19181776541/laughingsquid-tifa-the-cat-thinks-shes-a-dog#notes" title="Creative Playground"&gt;904 notes&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li class="source"&gt;&lt;i class="icon-info-sign"&gt;&lt;/i&gt; &lt;a href="http://laughingsquid.com/tifa-the-cat-thinks-shes-a-dog/" title="Laughing Squid"&gt;Laughing Squid&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li class="reblog"&gt;&lt;i class="icon-retweet"&gt;&lt;/i&gt; &lt;a href="http://links.laughingsquid.com/post/19181722635/tifa-the-cat-thinks-shes-a-dog" title="laughingsquid"&gt;laughingsquid&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;hr class="spacer"&gt; &lt;ul class="tags"&gt; &lt;li class="tags"&gt;&lt;i class="icon-tags"&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li class="tag"&gt;&lt;a href="http://creativeplayground.tumblr.com/tagged/fancy-tag" title="fancy tag"&gt;fancy tag&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="tag"&gt;&lt;a href="http://creativeplayground.tumblr.com/tagged/sample-tage" title="sample tage"&gt;sample tage&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="tag"&gt;&lt;a href="http://creativeplayground.tumblr.com/tagged/tag-1" title="tag 1"&gt;tag 1&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="tag"&gt;&lt;a href="http://creativeplayground.tumblr.com/tagged/tag-2" title="tag 2"&gt;tag 2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="tag"&gt;&lt;a href="http://creativeplayground.tumblr.com/tagged/tag-3" title="tag 3"&gt;tag 3&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="tag"&gt;&lt;a href="http://creativeplayground.tumblr.com/tagged/tag-4" title="tag 4"&gt;tag 4&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="tag"&gt;&lt;a href="http://creativeplayground.tumblr.com/tagged/tag-5" title="tag 5"&gt;tag 5&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="tag"&gt;&lt;a href="http://creativeplayground.tumblr.com/tagged/tag-6" title="tag 6"&gt;tag 6&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="tag"&gt;&lt;a href="http://creativeplayground.tumblr.com/tagged/tag-7" title="tag 7"&gt;tag 7&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="tag"&gt;&lt;a href="http://creativeplayground.tumblr.com/tagged/tag-8" title="tag 8"&gt;tag 8&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre> <p>CSS:</p> <pre><code>.meta { width: 110%; margin: 5px -8px -8px -8px; padding: 5px; background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.8); box-shadow: inset -5px 1px 5px #555; font-size: 10pt; color: #555; } .meta a:link, .meta a:visited { color: #555; } .meta &gt; ul, ul.tags { display: inline; list-style: none; margin: 0; } .meta &gt; ul &gt; li, li.tag { display: inline; margin: 0 8px 0 0; white-space: nowrap; } li.tag:before { content: "#"; } </code></pre>

    1. COYes, I'll update the original post so I can use proper spacing.

    2. CO@Justin: Did you notice that you didn't close the anchor tag in the second link entry? It could be a coincidence, but since your layout breaks after this entry in your browser it's worth a try. Also, I cannot recreate the described behavior (FF14).

    3. CO@Zeta - Wow, I feel pretty dumb. That was the issue. I've been staring at this code for hours and couldn't figure out what was wrong. And there it is. Thank you.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
