Shit's all sorts of different now.

I learned it from The Joy Luck Club and a Danielle Steel novel.

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

I learned it from a girl I knew named Mei Mei.

Well, it wasn't her real name.

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

ita, are you playing with the code?

In this post,

I'm seeing assorted characters at the end of the post that aren't in my original post, and don't belong there. It changes from page view to page view.

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

I have no idea what that was, DX, or why you're so special. I put the old code back (I'd swapped it out a couple hours ago), but I'm going to have to look at the entry in the database -- please don't edit the post.

It seems okay now, but here's a screenshot of what I was getting:

The characters at the end of the post varied from refresh to refresh.

It's okay because I put the old code back in. But I need to work out what the system was parsing so variably.

You troublemaker.

Glad to be of service.

The thing is, I'd posted other places in the last couple of hours, and nothing like that happened. Weird.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

Glad to know it wasn't just another Opera glitch.

I should also mention that the problem with the page refreshing every. single. time, seems to have disappeared. I can now use the back/forward buttons, without worrying about losing what is written in the textarea.

I think that last is browser dependent. Firefox still refreshes the posting box every time you go back and forth. Mozilla doesn't.

Really? They must've fixed the problem in Opera then. I'm using the very latest version, 7.54u2
