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

Yep. That was it.

When I took the periods out of my name, logged back in, and sent, it worked.

Ahhh... FWIW you shouldn't have to log out and in again.

I didn't for the name change to show up in threads, but I did for it to be reflected in the logged in user info part place thingy, and on the form.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Ooo! Steph! You and I both have full stops in our names!

So does Michele T., who also had a problem.

You smarrrrrrrt.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

and on the form.

Really? The form wasn't updated unless you logged off? I'm learning a lot today!

ita will have to put in a fix for the periods-in-a-username problem. I can look at it, and maybe figure out how to fix it, but she's the only one who can update those functions.

brillig

I've been having it intermittently since the time Teppy reported. Last time was about twenty minutes ago.

I bop to Wittgenstein. -- Nutty

I suspect the form's not taking any punctuation in the user name, somehow. If PMM and Steph's full stops stopped it, then my problem's probably the hypen.

Interesting.

Jon, I noticed your code in Technology, and this part:

$body = 'username: ' . $_user->name

made me think -- what happens to interpolated variables in PHP which have dots in them?

I mean as

$x = $firstname . $lastname

is the code to smoosh two vars together, what happens if one of the vars contains a dot itself? I'm sure I'm barking up the wrong tree but it could explain it.
