My last few submitted articles have been posted sans my numerous and exquisitely placed hyphens. The hyphens have either been replaced by spaces or the formerly hyphenated phrases are all glued together. Is this a bug in the article submission form?

Pardon my ignorance, but would that include Internet Explorer?

I have read that some doctors can repair a broken hyphen.

Wasn't Bo Jackson's career ended by a broken hyphen?

He had colon problems as well.

Must... resist... tasteless... joke.... about... periods!

But really, what the eff? Parts of the text don't make sense without my innumerable hyphens. Help!

So...I replaced all the dashes with code to get rid of the stupid ? issues (for some reason, our system doesnt like dashes that aren't totally perfect). If you look at the source code you can see them...

Anyway, I'll fix 'em. They're there, don't fret. They're just...hiding. :P

Thanks Court. That's another bottle of (cheap) wine that I owe you.

well, I guess the boards read some code...anyway... & s h y ; has been replaced with & # 4 5 ; - the dashes should appear within an hour.

So the standard HTML characters work when we post articles via the form? Useful as I sometimes have to use umlauts and accents. These work fine on my blog.

Yep, code (almost) always works
