It seems to me that it should not be too difficult to parse out those offending characters..... it must be a more complicated bug than it seems at first glance otherwise John would have stomped this bug quickly.
It seems that early on, Jim posted something on it, but naturally I can not remember what he said. I think his post gave a tip for us, but even that was above my grade level. I agree with you, it’s a beast or it would be gone.
i get these when i cut and paste a post here on FR so i can show the person who gets the post what i’m referring to. see my posts
A lot of Freepers who are IT professionals have said that this bug is a fifteen minute fix.
I can only wonder why JohnRob hasn't handled it yet. It's been plaguing the site for months.
