A misplaced apostrophe in some HTML code caused the editing screen for a blog post to disappear and the display of the blog on that post to warp. I had to write to the weblogmaster about another editing problem I was having–something about length not being defined–so I mentioned this one.

Addendum 12/3: Can you believe I did it again? I didn’t catch the misplace apostrophe in the HTML code when I was proofreading until after I hit submit. Too late.

I’m sure I’ve made these typos before. I wonder if something changed with how Manila reads HTML code in the new version of Manila the server runs …
