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

I'm gonna need you broken people to do some testing on a different site for me, in a couple days.

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

FWIW, I didn't have any problems using Firefox/Win98.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Worked for me using IE6, Win2000 Pro.

Fine on a networked WinXP running IE6.0.2etc.

Okay. Just holler.

I'm hollering right now -- can you (Cindy, Beverly, Am-Chau) head over to buffistas.net, log in (it may be an old password of yours, since the user table is aged), and tell me if you have the same error.

Ta!

The error message reads:

Okay, where the $$&#&(@#& are the developers?

Again, it still works. It subscribes me. If I hit "back" on my browser, it takes me to the page and I see "Unsubscribe" rather than subscribe (and vice versa)

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

Let's do the debugging in the BBaBB thread over there.

I've made a couple tweaks -- can you try subscribing again and post the results on .net?

Gus! In testing Cindy's problem on .net I discovered a weirdness with the tidy code. I've posted some of the offending text in your site, BBaBB.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

The tidy code is trying to apply html rules to sql strings, in your example. Unmixy things.

Coders trying to talk to each other may have to use an equiv entity, thusly:

SELECT COUNT(*) AS sub_count FROM subscriptions WHERE user_id≡2 AND thread_id≡32

... because there is no entity to represent '=' ...

We may also see other, non-code user posts that have an equal mark in them being decorated oddly. Not too sure how big a problem that is. The problem stays within the post. Buffistas, on the whole, are not so finger-lazy that they can not type 'equals', when they mean to.
