    Comment display bug in Firefox 3

    I'm not sure how bothered you are about this but there is a bug in the display of each article comment when they are viewed with Firefox or Google Chrome. The border that is set on the <li> cuts through the comment text (if the length of the comment stretches the containing span taller than the author detail box on the left).

    The solution is to place a span with the clear and display style properties set, so this:

    <ol class="comments">
            <li>
               <span class="comment_author"></span>
               <span class="comment_content"></span>
            </li>
    </ol>

    becomes:

    <ol class="comments">
            <li>
               <span class="comment_author"></span>
               <span class="comment_content"></span>
               <span style="clear: both; display: block;"></span>
            </li>
    </ol>

    Obviously the properties should be applied via a class set on the span instead of using inline styles :)

    Just a little thing but sorting it will make the comments a little more readable.
