.. so sad !

i entered a new resource:
www.garagegames.com/index.php?sec=mg&mod=resource&page=view&qid=11516,

but when i went to view/rate the resource to make sure it had been upped okay,
the article body section had been truncated about a third of the way in !

in the hopes that the body is still hanging around somewhere,
i haven't edited the resource.

orion

edit: darned spelling.

Well, I can't wait to see the fixed resource, I definitely need this. Have you checked for any weird characters? I know you probably don't have the symbol for english pounds or euros, but those are examples of symbols that have wrecked my previous posts and resources.

Huh.
actually, yes, the very next character was a somewhat non-standard character, The Dot.

Yup, I've used ASCII #250 (the dot) before too and our forms can't handle it. If you're looking for bullet points, try HTML-lite version's of UL/LI:

  • feature[li]another[li]yetanother
[ u l ] [ l i ] feature [ l i ] another [ l i ] yetanother [ / u l ]
