I was asked to add a Poetry forum, which I did...

But the poster got right back to me becuase their post was cut off at I think like 8 lines or so...

IS there an admin method to allow longer posts? Or might that be due to group perms for that level of user?

Cant find that data anywhere...

?

I think there is limit, but it can't be to 8 lines.

There is no limit to post length there is a size limit but this is large enuff that i have never reached the limit (i'm talking like 5 a4 pages of text/picture etc.

Try reuploading your files cos one may be corrupted

There's a MS Windows limit on the control of about 100K bytes.

Someone reported a problem with truncated posts a while ago. Don't remember exactly what the solution was, but I think it has something to do with the users security - firewall, anti-virus, pop-up blocker or anti-spyware - setting. You might start by having them try again with their firewall disabled and go down the list until it works, then adjust whatever was causing the failure.

If it's happening to everyone, I'd be thinking of a javascript problem - perhaps a conflict between the wwf javascript and some other one on the page.

Lead me not into temptation... I know the short cut, follow me.
