I am having difficulty posting my long description. The HTML in it is
getting all munged. Here is an example.
I post:
a <a href='http://www.povray.org'>familiar logo</a> in it
It ends up as:
<a>familiar logo</a> in it

This is not valid HTML. You cannot encode the HTML tag markers < and >.
The following is valid HTML:
a <a href="http://www.povray.org">familiar logo</a>;

Ooops... I thought that these news forums supported HTML, and so I thought I
would need to escape the <>'s in order to post my example here. I did not
actually type ">" into the submission form. Let's do this again. Here is
what happened to me.
I type:
a <a href='http://www.povray.org'>familiar logo</a> in it
It ends up as:
<a>familiar logo</a> in it
This seems to be very repeatable. Sorry for the confusion. Please let me
know if I have cleared it up.

HTML requires double quotes, that's probably at least part of what's going
wrong.
(Most browsers seem to ignore this fact, but apparently the submission
script (correctly) does not.)

I take it back; HTML 4.1 allows single quotes:
http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/intro/sgmltut.html#h-3.2.2
and even XHTML doesn't seem to change this.
Regardless, the submission script probably expects double quotes.

Well, that improves things. Here's what I get now.
a <a href="http://www.povray.org">familiar logo</a> in it,
goes to:
a <a href="http://www.povray.org">familiar logo</a> in it,
Still isn't working exactly right, though. Also, since this is the case
(that single quotes are not recognized properly) I would recommend changing
the text on the member profile page. The instructions beside the
"background" box state:
Permitted HTML tags are <p>, <br>, <i>, <u>, and <a href='...'>.
This is why I decided to use single quotes. Otherwise, I normally use double
quotes. I checked, and my link in my background text was also mangled,
although differently.
<a href='http://www.hentschels.com'>Hentschels.com</a>.
goes to:
<a href="'http://www.hentschels.com'>Hentschels.com.
Once I changed this to double quotes, this particular link seems to be
accepted properly.

Why this code as a long description? Is a web page that you have this
description?

No, I simply wanted to provide links to other pages to give some background
on my image. If that is not possible, then I will remove the links. Not a
big problem. I just figured that since the capability was advertised, I
might as well make use of it.

Hi,
Will this long description be available to the judges as well? If so,
perhaps it's not suitable to allow links where people can link to their
websites, thus voiding the idea of staying anonymous.

Johnny
