Re: Problem with repeats: stray bar line

[Tobias Braun]

Ok, but the "fix" tells me to alter a global browser setting, which I may not 
want to after all. It says this is required "To get automatic language 
selection". What I really want, however, is manual language selection. Isn't 
that what the language links at the bottom are for? Instead, I am getting a 
broken kind of automatic language selection at the moment. Is there no way to 
turn automatic language selection off? Or just store the user's selection in a 
cookie or something?

Also, there are no instructions for the Safari browser on OS X on that page. 
Looking around the Safari preferences window, I get the impression that there 
is no such setting in Safari at all, let alone a way to configure it per site. 
(LilyPond documentation is the only web site I ever encountered which exhibits 
this problem.)
