Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Pfargggh.

More news as I work it out.

No other candidate is asking the hard questions, like "Did geophysicists assassinate Jim Henson?" or "Why is there hydrogen in America's water supply?" --defective yeti

But, you know, worse things can happen to a discussion board. Over at Slate, their Fray discussion board just unregistered everybody and required them to get a Microsoft .Net Passport to reregister. That's not going to happen here at our own home. (Though we might have to utter a "Macs are better" watchword if Daniel C. Jensen ever effects his rise to power.)

Thanks for all the fish.

I couldn't connect to the front page for about 30 minutes (ah, 12:30 to 1am, AST; getting server not found) and then managed to log in, get to natter, then I couldn't move off of the single natter page I was on for 20 or so minutes - no error message, it just kept saying it was contacting the server and didn't go anywhere (I tried clicking on 'read new', 'message centre' and 'next' with no success). Seems fine now. and it might be my connection, which has been ungodly slow tonight.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

The same thing happened to me; I kept getting a "Page Not Found," or "Page Cannot Be Displayed." Then, when I logged on, the entire right-side bar was gone, which was quite jarring. Then I reloaded about ten minutes later, and everything was fine.

Daniel, when it's time, I'll back your play.

Rob, Daniel, it's a slippery slope: [link]

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

CRAP!

Okay, I broke it. Single quote/double quote.

Never mind, I seem to be able to delete.

Dudes. Finally got a moment: check out [link] which tests, in very mechanical fashion, for unclosed HTML tags.

For each start tag, there either is or isn't an end tag, found later in the text. That's all it does but after much messing around that seems to be what we need, really.

See if you can fool it, please?

And PHP gurus, what's the neat way to do:

$array2 = (all the values in $array1 which aren't empty strings)

once again I can't figure it out for myself.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

You want array_filter used with a callback function:

Like

function notblank($val) { return ($val<>"")};

$array2 = array_filter($array1, "notblank");

Standard typo and thinko disclaimers apply.
