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

Gus, if you can efficiently break long strings, DX may bake you a cake and dance you a little dance. Don't tell him I said so, though.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

It's not that good a prize, given my baking skills.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

So far, I haven't gotten anything to bleed over. The interesting thing is it seems to treat HTML with QuickEdit counterparts (italics, bold, etc) basically as QuickEdit, so it closes the tag at the end of the paragraph, not the post.

Okay, actually, it does close the tag at the end of the post, but the board doesn't continue the tag past the paragraph, which I thought it did.

Doesn't

it?

Oh, I guess it never did. Huh.

So you're saying it's your dancing that brings all the boys to the yard, DX?

Sadly there are neither boys nor girls in my yard. My dancing ability is on a par with my baking ability.

Man. The code seems to be pretty resilient. I hit it with like seven nested tags, some multiples, and it caught them all.

I'm not having any luck breaking it. It might be a good idea to have another codehead give it a read-through. It is classes.Post->closetags()

I'm going to attack the mismatched-quotes-in-an-href problem, unless there are objections. It hoses things up right proper.

The main thing is that it seems to be working on making the ratio of open tags to closed tags 1:1, regardless of their position. So if you close a tag before opening it, the tag will bleed.

Yup. Will fix.
