Issue:Style error for anonymous users

Description:	DPL-queries messes up layout for anonymous users
Extension / Version:	DPL   /   1.8.8
Type / Status:	Bug   /   open

Problem

MW version is 1.15.1

I've got a few simple DPL-queries on my front page, but they make the layout act up for anonymous viewers. Even empty tags causes this problem.

Check it out for yourself @ [1]

I have a couple of access-preventing extensions going on, but they aren't the cause of this. I've tried deactivating all of those in my LocalSettings.

Any ideas? My wiki is pretty restricted, so anonymous users only have access to a handful of pages. But I really need to be able to display some DPL-based stuff on the front page.

I can hardly imagine that teh effect comes from DPL. A similar problem has never been reported so far. I suggest that you start with an EMPTY page that only contains the DPL code you want to be executed. If the effect then still exists, we can look for the cause.

Maybe it is your banner that messes up the format (width=100% ?)

Thanks for the quick reply!

A reasonable suggestion and I tried it. Check out this test page that has only a dpl-query.

I'll try commenting out all the stuff in my LocalSettings to see if something is conflicting.
