Do you have problems, concerns or recommendations about the technical side of the Phoenix? Air them here. Compliments also welcome.
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?
Yup. Ouise's posts are broken with \\n\\n instead of \\r\\n.
I find you have to skip several lines to get a blank line in Lynx.
Sue, how many?
Jeez, let me test... Two lines Three lines Four lines...I usually just use the br tag in Lynx anyway. Aha, it's not doing anything. Now I've edited it in Netscape and the line breaks are included. In Lynx now, and will they disappear.
Yup. Ouise's posts are broken with \\n\\n instead of \\r\\n.
How hard is it to add that to the code?
edit: interesting. My backslashes disappeared...
re-edit: Ahh! Thanks ita.
Easy for John. Less easy for me.
Backslashes have to be doubled. \\\\ to give \\.
Please don't worry about coding that. It isn't that much of a hassle to use br.
