Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Feature request, if possible. On the confirmation page for "set profile", if the proposed tagline could be already limited to what's allowable (rather than just reiteration of what I pasted in there). As an alternative, perhaps a line above the tagline entry box that says how many characters are allowed.

Do you mean you used one of these: [insert entity here]? Those have to be written using the entity <.

Voila! Minor mystery solved.

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

Minor mystery solved.

Is that like Trixie Belden?

No! What I meant to say was Jon, how do you code the box to accept no more than 255 characters?

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'd personally prefer a note saying no more than 255, because I like to keep a record of past tags in my profile, and if I can past the new tag into the box and then cut the old tag out and put it into my general profile box, it's easier than pasting the new tag into the location bar at the top of my screen, cutting the old tag and pasting it into the profile box, and then picking the new tag back up from the location bar and pasting it into the tagline box.

But that's just me and my silliness.

It's more important to avoid people having to count the characters in their taglines. You'll work out another way.

For service like this I'm gonna have to find a ventilated box and some chloroform.

And maybe a ladder, or protective padding.

Off the top of my head, I can't remember. I think it's possible, though. I'll check this evening (unless John H. or some other html guru beats me to it).

Oh - ita - Did you not like my thread-name-near-the-bottom-of-the-page-code, or have you just not had a chance to look at it yet?
