Moved from Buffy:

Ouise - I noticed you using a lot of <br> tags in your post. Did you know that if you hit enter twice in the message box (thus leaving a blank line), it automatically starts a new paragraph?

This doesn't solve your problem, but I thought you'd want to know...

Huh. I was able to fix Ouise's broken br tag.

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

clicking on your link

Which one? I posted two ... you mean [link] gives you links on the left, but [link] doesn't, Jess?

Which would mean it's not a mac related error. Anyone else having it? And you (Michele and DX) are both set to be remembered, right?

I'm completely confused. And not just because I edited Ouise's post with no problems.

There were two broken tags in there, one without the left caret, and one without the right, which was where the display mess came in. But I'm not sure why you guys were having editing problem -- what was happening -- was there an error message?

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Which one? I posted two ... you mean [link] gives you links on the left, but [link] doesn't, Jess?

No, the other way around, but that's not what I meant to say.

I have [link] bookmarked, and when I first come to it, the links are missing. Clicking on pretty much anything brings them back. (Anything w/ a www. just [link] logs me out.)

(And, unrelated, just a second ago the posting box dissapeared, but I clicked on "last" and it returned.)

It wasn't DX, it was me, and I just reproduced it here at work.

  • I quit all the way out of Mozilla on my W2K box, and restarted the app.

  • I entered "http://www.buffistas.org/" in the address bar.

  • The site came up, but without the navigation stuff in the left column.

And yes, I'm set to be remembered. screenshot/view source on request.

Sorry, DXTom.

If you go directly to, say, [link] what happens?

ita, clicking on message_center and read_new both seem to work fine.

Going directly to read_new.php seems to work.

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.

Jon - I find that most (if not all) of the time if I'm posting from Lynx, leaving a blank line doesn't create a new paragraph. I haven't mentioned it because it didn't seem like that big a problem.

This is two blank lines below the previous sentence.

Interesting. Maybe the pattern of ascii characters used to create a CRLF are different in lynx?
