List members,
I am sure this was probably mentioned before I joined the list, but when members post to the
list using the PHP tags around the script, a number of web-based PHP mail apps attempt to process
the script server-side and those of us blessed with such systems see either nothing or
unintelligible garble with some of the funniest hyperlink behaviors I have seen in a while.
In case anyone's curious, I am using Earthlink's webmail, which is a PHP3-based app
(with several issues, particularly handling escaped characters and special characters in message
replies).
Am I one of very few persons experiencing this? If not, could we (or have we already) adopt
some policy to enable those with this challenge to see code on postings?
Regards,
