Minor Forum bug

from Stardock Forums
Actually its pretty major for me considering how I format
my submitions, but for mosts its rather minor :)

This is a fairly new change, but when you edit your posts
hard returns are duplicated. Hence any hard return after
editing occurs twice.

Basicily it forces me to delete all the "br"'s from my
thread as I edit it, which is somewhat tedious as I tend
to have a lot of em :)

It's not exactly adding <br>'s - its adding </br>'s, which is invalid.

Probably an attempt to block unterminated HTML tags...

Such as the bold tag in the previous paragraph. Given the status of this forum, I'm considering to volunteer re-writing it from scratch.

Although, if you're right in that it's merely an error in their error checking, a one line exclusion added to the code responsible for parsing text into HTML will eliminate the problem, quiet Staffa down, and eliminate the need for you to re-writing the whole thing ;)

I thought this was just me....I usually browse the forums with Safari and i hadn't noticed it happening to anyone else.

I also have an issue where I reload threads and instead of loading then stopping, it continues to reload over and over. Maybe that one is browser specific...
