IE 7 is the same. Even the page looks exactly the same.

As far as mine goes...

I'm using both IE and Chrome and encounter the problem both way.

Screen resolution is 1280 X 1024 using an NVIDIA GeForce card.

Yes, it is consistent, same players every time.
I have both IE 8 and firefox, and for the same players numbers are not displayed correctly, but in IE number are too much to the left (with both numbers on top of each other if number > 9) for some players, and in firefox for these same players numbers are too much to the right (with both numbers on top of each other if number > 9). About 50% of the players' numbers are displayed correctly though.
Hope this helps.

If this will help.

I have IE 8 and FF 3.5.2 on a Vista 64, the numbers appear accurate on my roster under both browsers.

Here's a new bit of information, thanks to a user in Suomi. The player number problem seems to go away when I switch to English (US). If I try another language version, the numbers start acting up. I tested French, Norwegian, and Finnish and they all show the issue.

(Safari 4.0.3, OS X 10.5.8)


Edit. And apparently I'm now subscribed to Help - French and Help - Norwegian. :-)

now that was a funny error. What was going on was that we were calculating the offset in the code, but weren't careful to round to the nearest integer in terms of the number of pixels, which doesn't matter for most browsers when you display the decimal like 5.32. However, when you change languages and it prints out 5,32 the browser thinks its malformed, some backwards european way of writing numbers ;) and so ignores it.

i confirm it works well now

now, i have a problem with the suggested position of players
in (/team/36744/players.aspx) it's displayed one line below, so the skills hide it
in (/player/6552622/overview.aspx) instead it works well

this problem has been reported by many italian users, maybe it's something related to the numbers bug?

EDIT: what's wrong with my player's link?

Indeed, problem solved, because in IE and firefox numbers are displayed correctly now ! Thank you for fixing.

Numbers and dates have been and will bee a big problem for programmers, and still we haven't got an international standard. That's next for the American President? (and let him bring you all the metric system as well).

Older than the rest ...
