So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
I may have saved some of it to my local machine. I'll check when I get home.

But why are the remaining verses in a new font size?
An excellent question for which I have no answer. You'd think they'd all use the browser default, but the open t pre tag is causing all sorts of zany behavior.
Can someone link to the discussion of structure from before? Was it in the Bad Old Days on WX or what?
I remember ita posting a lovely diagram of the structure, which was promptly eaten by a WX outage later that night.

Getting back to the problem of IDing when someone's tag is more than 255 characters, I just spotted this script in a email newsletter I get. It's pretty nifty, though it may be overkill. Interestingly, it seems to count the carriage return as two characters, which is what we wanted. I'm confused as to why it's doing that since it's using the same length method as what I was testing with before.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore
I'll find Dead Gay Larry.
Which is such an odd sentence, when you've looked at it for a while.

ita, what do you mean by "quote editing"?
§ ita § - Nov 08, 2002 3:51:35 pm PST #1299 of 10000
Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Right now quotes are added and edited through straight SQL. There's no programmatic interface for it, and as such the process is very inefficient (send quote to Hec who formats them and sends them to me).
Instead of an interface where people can add quote that are then approved by admins, who can also correct existing quotes.

Gah. We talk a lot.
I talk a lot.
Anyway, we're currently okay with monthly bandwidth, but we're eating diskspace like nobody's business. We've been live almost 2 months and we're 44% through our HD storage.
We can upgrade as far as 550MB (we're currently at 154 of 350). But that's more money. And then what?
It's late, and I'm out of bright ideas.
