I've searched high and low to determine how this is happening. #13;#10;#13;#10;Whenever I post to any Snitz forum, a return (or line break) becomes "#10;". Like this:#13;#10;#13;#10;#13;#10;#13;#10;I hit return four times there. #13;#10;#13;#10;I'm using Firefox 1.5, on Mac OS X 10.4.3 -- however, if I post using Safari, I don't have the issue. #13;#10;#13;#10;Any ideas?#13;#10;#13;#10;Thanks! |

OK, after posting I see that something new is happening...never had the "#13;" thing happen before. #13;#10;Weird. |

So it looks like a Firefox issue, definitely not a Snitz issue. Not a Firefox user, so maybe someone who does can shed some light. Maybe this can be fixed through some config option or similar. |

I've been using FF on Win2000 & XP for quite some time without any problems... could it be an OS X issue? I don't have a Mac to try with...
Or now that I think about it, could it be the Mac version of FF 1.5 specifically? |

No, it's not FF 1.5 -- I just upgraded to that to see if it fixed the problem. I've cleared cookies, cache, history -- everything. I keep thinking maybe it's a font issue, but I've been all over my installed fonts and those activated by Suitcase. Turned them all off and on. I'm just baffled. |

We have no other reports on such a issue. I know users who own Macs and post on Snitz forums who have no problems. Don't really know whether they use Firefox, though. |

Sounds like an oddity really...the return 'character' is made up of a Carriage Return (CR) and LineFeed (LF) which have ascii values ( I think) of 13 and 10 - this is where that's coming from...now as to why, I don't know.
Maybe it's not handling the ascii/page conversions properly? What are your language settings on your 1) Mac and 2) browser?
For those who are still curious, or in case it helps, in vbscript/vb there's a constant 'vbCRLF' which does just this... |

Wouldn't using vbNewLine be better? If I remember right it would use CRLF on the platforms that needed it, and CR on those that worked better with CR... though I could be mistaken on that one. |

I have copied my preferences from my work computer -- also Mac OS X 10.4.3 using FF 1.5 -- and I'll make them the same at home. I'll post all the details if it works.

Dang! My character encoding pref at work is "Western (ISO-8859-1)". I really thought that was the fix. #13;#10;#13;#10;Guess not. |

was worth a try though...Guess you'd best keep an eye on the FF site linked by Podge, and wait for a patch.
AnonJr - I think vbNewline is the newer, preferred syntax - never used to be such a thing as I remember. Once we even had to add our own chr(13) & chr(10)'s... |

Still having problems with FF1.5 on the Mac?
I finally got around to downloading it for WinXP today. |
