"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I've encountered an odd problem where the Phoenix board doesn't remember me and automatically log me in, no matter how many times I select "remember me" on the Set Profile form. I don't know of any precipitating change to my computer that would have disabled this function - haven't altered any of my cookie preferences lately or anything like that. Is there another setting somewhere that I should change?

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

Does anyone want to volunteer to write tag-closing code?

I know we had some waiting to be tested, but it disappeared when my HD did, and so all that work of Rob's was wasted.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

Today is bye-bye day for the map hosting. Also, the tv tropes wiki will be down for a few weeks.

Profile addy good, but responses will be slow. I'll probably pop back up in the Fall.

Thanks, Gus. Is the zip you'd listed above the most ultra-plus-current, or should I grab it again?

It looks like there was a data change after the last zip. I updated the archive just now (at the same address). The host power goes off in about two hours.

Duly grabbed, GusWhoWillBeSorelyMissedUntilHisReturn.

Quick question for Stompies.

I just created a message for "movies" using code including ampersands and semicolons. All of it clean. I swear. Triple checked it.

Are older html codes usable?

What old HTML codes do you mean? Any unsupported (but correctly formatted) HTML tag gets stripped. But you sound like you mean entities -- I can't be sure.

I used the ampersandnesemicolon for the "not equal" math sign. Plus, an ampersandeacutesemicolon for an accented e. Plus, an ampersandinfinsemicolon for an infinity sign. And, lastly, ampersandthere4semicolon for the mathematical 'therefore'.

I posted it and everything looked good, but I panicked because the times when I've bleeded out an open tag, the error has not shown up on my screen (at all...everyone else's messages look fine to me too).

I deleted it right away and came here instead. As I say, it looked great, but I didn't want to mess anything up if the board coding would be offended.

Entities are just fine. Used here all the time.
