Blog

I have noticed the the left hand ads are taking up more space than usual. WHY?

Front Page Issue

The problem you are seeing with the front page is probably caused by a very long comment title without any intervening blanks. The system probably looks for the end of a word (i.e. a blank) to split the line. If there is no blank it cannot split the line and the width/length in therefore determined by the length of the comment before a blank is encountered.

It's Easy to see

Check the message with the excessive usage of the letter "e" in the title.

I know

I saw the comment that had likely cause the problem but I didn't think there was any need to embarrass someone and yes it was that type of a "stretched" word.

Yeah, this accident has happened before, easy fix though

Do not do long continuous strings of characters in a title OR alternatively, DO break them up so the software can wordwrap it to another line.

Lots of us have done it here. I think I did a long while back.

Annoying when it happens but not a biggie. No harm no foul.

Now as to spammers like that one late Sunday night.
