Yeah, I could do that, but I'm paralyzed with not caring very much.

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

Already done, Jon. You'll note it's in the section that you only see if you're logged in.

I mean that the search.php page itself should have code in it so that it only displays the search form if you're logged in. If you're not logged in, search.php would just display a message like "You must be registered and logged in to use this page."

Ah. Yes. Well, the search page is being rewritten, as you can see if you use it, so nothing there is done.

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket

I just found this post unposted on my hard drive. It's slightly old, but--

I believe this is a part of the official HTML spec - the

tag is supposed to clear out any open tags that preceed it.

Really! Dude.

Nobody tells me anything!

Errr.... no. That's a part of the quickedit definition. How else would the quickedit end itself?

Sorry. When I was on TT, and for half of my stint on WX, I used Netscape, and when Netscape copies text from a page it leaves in hard returns and lots of funky spaces. IE strips them, 'cause it's cool that way. But if I wanted to quote someone else's post, I would copy and paste it into my posting box, and it would look like

I don't think we want to be doing things
            that purposely violate the HTML standards.

, like that.

I'd put a > in front of it, and the > would carry through the "doing things" to the "that purposely". If there were *two* hard returns, that's when it'd stop.

That's all.

Oh. Uh. Cereal:

In the bright and shiny future, would it be possible to label your bookmarks somehow? That was an option at TT; and I'm using it as my personal Nillying system for remembering where really interesting discussions start; and it would be all neat to be able to find start of body image discussion in Bitches instead of Steph L.

It's already been requested.

Neat. Thanks. I didn't remember.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I just hit post in the buffy thread. It somehow took me to Maggie B's profile. I would think I accidently clicked on Maggie B's name, but she didn't have a post on that page. It also ate my post.

Opera on iMac OS9 right before this post

Do we allow the blockquote tag?

Let's find out

No we do not! Can we add that in? I know that the > quickedit handles it, but if I want to have a "second-level" blockquote (i.e. a double indentation), I'm stuck.

(If we do add that, can we add t tt and t small ?)
