Use CSS folds

/me too hates folded blogs. It's like "I'd like to know that I've blogged, but I don't want you to actually read it"... *rant*

Now for some constructive things: Add "max-height: 30em; overflow: auto" to the CSS file, and overly long entries (such as Enricos recent posts) will not take over planet as much. (Pick an appropriate 30em). Untested for vertical limits; I've however been using this for clipping overly wide <pre/> sections before.

With next to no drawbacks to the readers that is. Folds suck. But if you are actually using a web browser to read planet, you'll be able to use the scroll bars I guess. Otherwise contribute a Javascript to un-limit the blog postings size. Should be a one-liner.

[Updated: overflow auto is better, since otherwise you'd always have scroll bars. Also increased to 30em. Thanks Daniel Silverstone for testing. See his blog entry on how to do this client-side with mozilla based browsers]
