For those we lost, We will not forget 09/11/2001 “Our God given unalienable rights are given to us all as individuals. They tell us what me may do for ourselves, and they are the embodiment of liberty. The so-called rights that government gives to some of us are parcelled out to select groups as classes. They tell us what one class of people may require another to do for them, and they are the very essence of slavery.”

Commenter UI modified

Published Thu, Mar 1 2007 8:19 AM

Too many people are having consistent trouble commenting using the FreeTextBox control I use for posting and commenting. I think it may be related to using it in the Rich Editing mode, so I've switched it over to the basic TEXTAREA display. I don't allow very much formatting of comments anyway, so the control was probably overkill, at least for commenting.

I've never had a problem using it for posting. That's why I don't understand why it sometimes doesn't work for commenting. And I have had problems using it for commenting myself.

Hopefully now I'll see fewer empty comments.

On the plus side, using the TEXTAREA instead of the Rich Editing mode seems to fix some rendering problems on 800x600 displays.

The new comment UI allows some limited HTML formatting. Just enter your tags right in the comment box.
It will filter out script, so don't bother.
Of course if it doesn't filter out script, I'll disable HTML in comments altogether.
