Hi guys, i got bad issues in my project but I don’t know how to solve it and i need some help please
I can replicate this issue by using a small screen. Is that true for you?
I have had this problem for a while and I don’t know how to solve it, even when I used another account and another device, it didn’t solve it
Can I see your project link? I might be able to figure out the reason that way if the issue is related to project contents.
It’s a problem for all projects i have and I don’t have,even when i made a new account i opened a new project and i got the same problem
Then it’s probably a personal problem. I still think it’s a device problem because I remixed the project at the start and the file tab is normal.
What devices have you used?
Im using iphone 7 plus for now, but i tried to use other browsers and the didn’t fixed, and i tried a pc and didn’t fixed too
I don’t know then. Another possibility is that one of the CSS pages in the editing screen didn’t load or work well for you which is probably what caused some things to malform. That’s possible for iPhone 7 because it is relatively old and may use old CSS standards. Otherwise, it should work on a typical PC (I used Windows 10).
here’s a previous response on this too, also saying it’s about the browser being too old

This is true for most people.
what is true for most people
css nesting.
what does it mean for css nesting to be “true” for someone
Sometimes it might not be a problem with css nesting. The browser can accept css nesting and it can still do that.
could you enlighten us on which times are those
Can just be a bug with your device itself, your browser can accept css nesting but dosent mean its not a css problem it can just be your device having a bug and not displaying it correctly.
yeah, should probably have OP open up their phone, check for signs of infestation, clean it out, and see if this still reproduces
The iPhone 7 only supports up to iOS 15.8.4, which in turn means your Safari will be 15.8.4, too. That version is old enough that it does not support CSS nesting, and so will not know how to render “modern” CSS. As per "css nesting" | Can I use... Support tables for HTML5, CSS3, etc, the oldest version of iOS Safari that may work is 16.5 on an iPhone 8 or newer (having incomplete support), and the oldest version that is known to work is 17.2 on an iPhone 11 or newer (having full support).
If you’ve tried on PCs: see that link above to make sure you’re using a browser on that PC that is modern enough to support nested CSS too. For example, if those PCs are running a no longer supported version of Windows, like XP or Windows 7, then you’re pretty much guaranteed to not have it work there, either.
@Lukew96 Except in this case it 100% is, because not all browsers accept CSS nesting. If you’re on an ancient OS/browser combination, this is what you’re going to see because your browser doesn’t know what to do with nested CSS.
Actually i opened glitch right now on a pc windows 8 and the problem still the same
Not too surprising: Windows 8 is also dead (it’s been unsupported for well over 2 years now). That said: just the OS is not enough information: which browser and version of that browser? Because as per the link I provided, that’ll tell you whether it should work, or whether you can fully expect it not to.

So, Got a couple questions:
- What browser version on your iPhone are you using? (As @Pomax mentioned, Windows 8 is really old (But still works)* and probably can’t run a good and up-to-date browser (correct?)
- Have you tried other projects? Have you tried remixing this project?
@wh0, @Lukew96 do you think it would be possible to create a simple website website with CSS Nesting to try to replicate the issue on a different website? That would make this 21 comment thread something like a 3-comment thread?
the mdn page on css nesting has some examples. if you see the dashes blue border then your browser is applying them.
but I don’t think it particularly shortens the thread. it’s a problem that glitch has debugged and found the cause pretty conclusively for already, and various older browsers are documented as not having support for this feature

Just being curious, when did Glitch start using CSS nesting?
Well over half a year ago. I have no idea why people keep commenting on a thread where the problem is known, the solution is known, and yet people keep coming up with “but what if it’s …?” without even waiting for the person reporting the problem to do the checking they need to do =)
