I like that the thread pages are listed backwards when you look at them from the forum.

It may be that you are using the standard editor- which is what I'm using as well. To change it, go into your User CP, then Edit Options, then the last option should be your editor.

It cand depend upon your browser setting. This is a unicode character for allowing other alphabets which are meant to be read right to left.

I know Firefox is, by default, set to Unicode (look under View -> Character Encoding).

Often when I read the Post-game write-ups there is a strange character in place of quotes (or other characters). If I change the encoding to Western I see the page correctly.

I'm just guessing, but for those who it won't work, you may have your page set to a different encoding.

If you copy the character from a post where it didn't work, it won't work

Barnes, it may have something to do with the page-encoding from your Mac's browser.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unicode...l_text_control

BTW: Photon, I'd imagine that the forum software can handle this, but you may want to check the server logs to make sure this hasn't created some "interesting" errors.

well since each post is self contained i don't think there should be any issues. but one of the other forums i visit (where i got this character) is one of the old bulletin board styles where it's all plain text based, and it caused some interesting issues

This was on Digg.com as well

And a software this pervasive should have no issues with this code, but you can never be too sure.

I'm curious to see what it does once we go past 60 posts and the "last page" option comes up.

I sure hope someone can show me that character.
