Can someone repair a TDN page i broke ?

Maybe i'm dumb, but every time i try to modify a page in TDN it's both very difficult and i screw the page up.
As wikis go, it seems very unforgiving.
Anyhow,
i tried to add some text to the page for GuiControls, in the GuiMLTextCtrl section,
but just ended up hosing it. My change looks so innocent. Can someone please roll that page back to Yu Wingjun's version of October 26, 2006 ?
I'd do it myself but i'm afraid of hosing the page even more.
thanks and sorry folks.

I don't seem to have permissions to roll back, so it will just need to be fixed.

Ah, found it, post here the content you wanted to have added. I don't seem to have permissions to roll back, so it will just need to be fixed.

I started the page, so no reason to add an extra "Community Contributions" section. It's all community contributions!
The issue that messed it up is the link. When you use search-related links (that contain ?) on TDN, it messes it up. I posted about it here, although now I see that you posted in that thread so you probably already knew that...

You're right, i should have remembered the link issue.
I guess i should have written "community-contributed features", which is what Strikethru is.
Or better, maybe i'll keep it in-line but mark it as requiring a resource.
.. Okay, did that. I got around the URL thing via tinyurl.
I gotta say, if anyone from GG happens to be reading,
the TDN wiki software leaves a lot to be desired.
in my recent edit, i previewed my change very carefully,
and when i finally submitted it, the actual page was very different.
Thanks again and sorry for all the incompetent edits !

Yeah, almost need to be a web developer to use it. Its needs a nice WYSIWYG editor. If that was added, i bet it would get used more.
