7. Insufficient validation occurs in message subject lines. Under some circumstances, text in the subject line can create a data overflow upon saving that breaks the links between messages. You can see this on 6TH POPE message #36306 and on F@H message #02752. In the first case, the message list points into the middle of the board list. In the second, it points from message 02752 to message 02732 even though messages 02751 through 02733 still exist. Screenshots showing the problem on the two boards are shown below.

If this is hard to fix, I wouldn't worry about it. I caused the corruption by accident on the Pope board and repeated it on F@H to confirm that I was responsible and what I'd done. I won't do it again, I promise, except possibly again by accident. I doubt anyone else will cause the corruption either... but they could since it's just a data overflow. Anyone can do the same thing by overloading the line.

5. This one's not a bug. It's just a wish list item. Namely, I'd give my eye teeth for the site to allow the html tags that support tables. The change is probably trivial for your programmer. Wherever your site is filtering text to allow italics and bold but not other tags, start allowing the table, tr and th tags. (and, of course, the /table, /tr and /th counterparts). That would enable us to type something like:

<table>
  <tr>
    <th>Company</th>
    <th>Contact</th>
    <th>Country</th>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>Alfreds Futterkiste</td>
    <td>Maria Anders</td>
    <td>Germany</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>Centro comercial Moctezuma</td>
    <td>Francisco Chang</td>
    <td>Mexico</td>
  </tr>
</table>

Or maybe we'd have to type the tags with square brackets instead of angle brackets as is currently the case on your site with bolding and italicization. Either way, we'd be able to get cool results in our messages like:

I can't think of any drawbacks to allowing these tags. At worst, a user who doesn't know what he's doing will screw up his own post by coding a table incorrectly.

It's just a thought. If you decide against it, I totally understand.

When the user then submits the post, code changes the doublequotes in the subject line to &quot; resulting in the subject line being TOO LONG. It's a buffer overflow. The following error message displays and the post won't save.

1)  While bolding and italics work, the “pre” tag inserts a carriage return at its conclusion. This is frustrating if the intent is to use it on a word in the middle of a sentence.


2)  When a search is done for an existing member, five columns of results display. The rightmost is “Recent posts”. It is a hyperlink which, when clicked, fails to display the selected member’s recent posts. In fact, it shows the user’s own most recent posts.


I'll augment this list as I remember or find new bugs.

CNBC’s Jim Cramer said Wednesday that Tesla’s decision to split its stock is beneficial for the market overall since it may help young people get interested in buying individual equities.

“Any value in the stock that’s created by this is false,” Cramer said on “Squawk Box.” “But I think the idea of getting newer, younger people involved into the stock market who aren’t just brainwashed to put money into index funds is terrific.”

Tesla announced a five-for-one stock split Tuesday evening that is set to go into effect Aug. 31. Shares of the electric vehicle maker rose following the news, adding billions of dollars to its market capitalization. Tesla was trading higher by 5% early in Wednesday’s session.

However, a stock split does not impact a company’s fundamentals at all. But it does lower the cost of an individual share, potentially appealing to people who may have be scared off by a high price tag. That could be particularly at play for Tesla’s stock, which has soared nearly 500% in the last 12 months to trade at nearly $1,450 per share Wednesday.

“It shouldn’t create wealth, but it can create new people coming in and boy, do we ever need that,” Cramer said.

Some people have questioned the importance of a stock split in a digital age where people can buy fractional shares on brokerages such as Robinhood and Fidelity.

Even so, the “Mad Money” host said he still believed there remains a strong psychological barrier for retail investors when they encounter stock prices north of $1,000. He referenced both Google-parent Alphabet, which trades at nearly $1,500 per share, and Amazon, which trades around $3,100.

“It’s just a price tag people can’t get used to so they don’t buy and therefore miss the run, say, from $300 or $400,” Cramer said later on “Squawk on the Street,” although he cautioned people against buying Tesla’s stock ahead of the actual split at the end of the month.

Cramer, who last month cheered Apple’s decision to enact a four-for-one stock split, said there also is a benefit for companies to attract smaller investors.

“The best kind of shareholder you can have is an investor small person who wants to stick around, so I am all for this,” he said.

CNBC’s Jim Cramer said Wednesday that Tesla’s decision to split its stock is beneficial for the market overall since it may help young people get interested in buying individual equities.

“Any value in the stock that’s created by this is false,” Cramer said on “Squawk Box.” “But I think the idea of getting newer, younger people involved into the stock market who aren’t just brainwashed to put money into index funds is terrific.”

Tesla announced a five-for-one stock split Tuesday evening that is set to go into effect Aug. 31. Shares of the electric vehicle maker rose following the news, adding billions of dollars to its market capitalization. Tesla was trading higher by 5% early in Wednesday’s session.

However, a stock split does not impact a company’s fundamentals at all. But it does lower the cost of an individual share, potentially appealing to people who may have be scared off by a high price tag. That could be particularly at play for Tesla’s stock, which has soared nearly 500% in the last 12 months to trade at nearly $1,450 per share Wednesday.

“It shouldn’t create wealth, but it can create new people coming in and boy, do we ever need that,” Cramer said.

Some people have questioned the importance of a stock split in a digital age where people can buy fractional shares on brokerages such as Robinhood and Fidelity.

Even so, the “Mad Money” host said he still believed there remains a strong psychological barrier for retail investors when they encounter stock prices north of $1,000. He referenced both Google-parent Alphabet, which trades at nearly $1,500 per share, and Amazon, which trades around $3,100.

“It’s just a price tag people can’t get used to so they don’t buy and therefore miss the run, say, from $300 or $400,” Cramer said later on “Squawk on the Street,” although he cautioned people against buying Tesla’s stock ahead of the actual split at the end of the month.

Cramer, who last month cheered Apple’s decision to enact a four-for-one stock split, said there also is a benefit for companies to attract smaller investors.

“The best kind of shareholder you can have is an investor small person who wants to stick around, so I am all for this,” he said.
