{{ helpme}}

On Alia al Hussein, the date of her birth (25th December) is split by her name in Arabic. All my attempts to correct this so far have failed. I can't work out how to fix it. Any help would be appreciated. Ozzieboy ( talk) 21:04, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

There is nothing wrong with that.

I'm not seeing the problem you're describing, either- I see her name in Arabic, followed by the date of her birth. - FisherQueen ( talk · contribs) 21:29, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

Oh well, maybe it's just a problem with my browser not displaying the Arabic correctly or something. This is how it appears in my browser - http://img87.imageshack.us/my.php?image=husseinwt7.jpg Note where the 25 is in relation to the December. Anyone know why this happens?

What browser are you using? Definitely doesn't appear to be happening in Safari... Giles Bennett ^{( Talk, Contribs)} 22:19, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

I use Internet Explorer 7. It's bizarre because I have only encountered this problem on this particular page. Ozzieboy ( talk) 22:23, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

I saw the same thing on Firefox. For me it's ok now, since I added a second December 25. How about you. Is the problem still there?-- Thw1309 ( talk) 23:26, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

Yes that has fixed it! Brilliant! Thanks! Ozzieboy ( talk) 08:21, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
