Code update

Just did another code update. Notably, this update fixed a number of things with the crossposter: UTF-8 posts (i.e. non-English-language posts) should work now, embedded videos should show up successfully on LJ, the button is now cross-browser, logged out users can use the update page again, etc. There were some other changes too, one or two minor fixes to the importer, and some other things.

As always, if you've got problems, we've got ears. Let us know what's up and we'll make sure it's got a bug filed and someone poking at it with sharp sticks. And sometimes dull sticks, because you really can't tell what a bug needs until someone goes in and starts poking.

Okay, I can't input a table in my Bio.

I'm trying to use this code on my bio page:



the Bio page doesn't even show that it recognizes a table, much less cells and so on. It works perfectly on a test page on another site, but not here.

(( and apparently the tag < code > isn't working on here either. ))

Hiya! I'm just a random user, but this caught my eye because I did something similar in my own profile both here and on LJ, and it worked (after much experimentation, since different attributes are ignored on each site). I'm not entirely sure why it's not working for you, but you may want to try converting the style attribute in your table tag into the old height and width attributes, since bios don't appear to recognize inline styling (among other attributes).

Thanks for the suggestion, I had tried that first, and it still didn't see it. And since the entire thing is based on it seeing the table, it isn't pulling it at all. < sigh >

I had a similar problem with using a table in my profile, so I opened a support ticket. You can see the response I got here. So, in other words, they're aware of the problem, but it'll take a while to get it fixed.

Gotcha. Thanks.
