Title: Disappearing content
Post by: Deep Toaster on April 18, 2012, 08:36:32 pm: I've been noticing a really weird bug lately that causes content to simply disappear from posts and PMs.

The first time I saw it was in a PM to kindermoumoute, which had a few paragraphs followed by a quote with more paragraphs inside. Everything showed up until the quote box, which is there but is empty.

And there's this post (http://omniurl.tk/12240/224047/) by ztrumpet, which is entirely gone (you can click QUOTE if you want to see his BBCode).

I'm thinking it has something to do with parsed links (without [url] tags), because there was one in the empty quote box in my PM as well as in the main body of ztrumpet's post.

Post by: DJ Omnimaga on April 18, 2012, 10:29:26 pm: Hmm that is strange. I noticed that before but only in minus world posts. Could it be a CSS issue? Because I clicked QUote and the message still appeared. ???

Is it very frequent by the way?

EDIT Seems like a QUote glitch O.O

Here's the one that I would personally recommend: http://tibasicdev.wikidot.com/archives:nibbles It bases collision detection and everything off the graph screen, so it produces some interesting and fast code.

If you'd like a homescreen version, you could try this one: http://tibasicdev.wikidot.com/snake

Post by: Darl181 on April 18, 2012, 10:37:49 pm: The content shows in the print page 0.o
So I'll guess it's something to do with rendering the normal page?

Well I clicked Quote and the content mysteriously appeared in the post editing box. ???

Eg In Ztrumpet's quote above:

It seems random. First of all with certain timestamps it seems to glitch out. But also in the quote above, if I add the http:// at the beginning of the first link, the quote breaks O.O

Seems like something is wrong with URLs in quotes. Netham45 might have broken something

That's the thing -- the BBCode is there on the server, but it's not getting converted to HTML.

Post by: DJ Omnimaga on April 19, 2012, 12:24:10 am: Well at least the content was not lost, which is good. But yeah there's a bug with URL parsing it seems.
