Ok. I was just curious.

Buffistas Building a Better Board
Do you have problems, concerns or recommendations about the technical side of the Phoenix? Air them here. Compliments also welcome.
Gus -- your code didn't like this URL: http : //tv.zap2it.com/tveditorial/tve_main/1,1002,271|91330|1|,00.htm
You spaced up the colon after 'http', so you could post, right?
Will test.
Yup.
It chopped it up and repeated it, so I commented out that code in production.
OK, got the problem. That site uses a pipe ('|') to delimit parms, in contravention of all standards and sense. It will be fixed despite my desire to adhere to the Godly Word of the W3C.
I've noticed pipe | being used a lot on sites lately. Is this a new fad?
I just wanted to pop over here and say a hearty thank you to the board developers for making b.org so damned user friendly and easy to read. Black boards and so very eye-strainy.
So thanks.
Big chunk of discussion got chopped out, for me. What the hell is that?
My last post on that topic was:
What would we experience differently?
Someone drops a link to a book purchase into a discussion, let us say. I am reading this discussion as: The Buffistas preference would be that this link would be, more preferably, a pointer to the Buffistas affiliate link to that book purchase. There would be posts related to this preference. That is one difference.
Another difference could be visual. If there is a stack of vendor buttons somewhere around the site, there might be some conflict with the concept of we being fan-supported and fiercely independent.
What the hell is that?
Wrong thread, bucko.
I meant to say ... your post is in Bureau, Gus. (silly paste function)
