Title: The code #ed_op#br#ed_cl# ?
Post by: Good Times on Feb 26 06 06:06
The code I quoted in the title has been showing up in the email copy of private messages sent between members. (It's refusing to show up in the body of the forum message.)

Is this some sort of a Mac code that's lost in translation to PC? [img style="CURSOR: pointer" onclick=url(this.src); src="http://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/midi/figuren/a018.gif" border=0]

From their location in those messages I'm guessing they're signalling a paragraph break. Yet instead of a real paragraph break it just inserts the  code and continues on with the message resulting in one big, and confusing to read, paragraph.

However when you view the private message on the bulletin board everything looks normal though.

Has anyone else noticed it? And why is this showing up?  [img style="CURSOR: pointer" onclick=url(this.src); src="http://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/smilie/verschiedene/a014.gif" border=0]

This is a side-effect of the modification for the rich-text editor. It wasn't fully melded with the Private Messaging functions and is one of the things on my list to clean up.

I may've stumbled upon another minor quirk with the rich text editor:

After replying with quote, if you don't go to the end of the quoted text and delete to get rid of what ever is there right after the visible text, then hitting enter results in a fairly big space between the quoted text and your response.

If you delete the hidden code at the end of the quoted text, paragraph break functions as usual.
