  1. It would be nice if I could post my PERSONAL note to cache log - some text that will be visible ONLY FOR ME, when I will visit cache later. Now I think about two ways of implementing this: 1) First way could be "LOG MY VISIT" -> select (new) type "PERSONAL NOTE" and then simply write my own note for current cache. It could be limited for only one note for cache (for current user, of course) - in that case the personal note could be displayed as first log under cache listing. 2) Another possible way to implement this feature could be assigning of special function to some special brackets - something like using "[]" to non-encrypted part of log, "{}" could be user for personal log. In this case, short personal notes could be placed in cche log itself. Simple example (you'll see here what I mean): I have found some cache which is part of some series (each cache has writen secret number in it, all of them are needed to find to get coordinates of bonus cache). I'll simply log this short text to my "found it" log: "Nice cache, thank you very much. {secret number Q=15}" When guest or another user will read this log, he will only see the public part: "Nice cache, thank you very much." When I will read the log after few weeks, after I need to calculate final coordinates of bonus cache, I'll see my log including personal part, so I don't have to write my notes to papers or into some custom files into my computer. And also - I'll find this information everywhere where I could visit geocaching website!!! Another example of using this feature would be pre-solving of Mystery. Sometime I'm solving interesting mystery caches which could be hundreds of miles far away from me. But after few months maybe I'll travel there and could find them. I believe that you'll find that this feature would be nice.
  2. Found an interesting bug. Go to a cache page, any cache page that has an encrypted log in the found column. If you decrypt a encrypted log, the encrypted hints disappear and are replaced with a duplicate of the Long Description. The description, pictures, and links are all doubled on the page. Go ahead give it a try... I've never seen anything like it. Here, try one of mine; OPERATION: RED SKY Here's someone else's, so you don't think it's just mine; Crossroads - Brothers In Arms Cache Interesting. That certainly is a very odd bug that was introduced. I will make sure this is addressed soon. Thank you for pointing it out! It needn't to be encrypted log, it also happens with encrypted hint (look at this listing and try to decrypt hint). Also interesting is, that this page generated for FireFox is corrupted (doubled listing without decrypted hint), but version generated for IE works well. But it is not problem of FireFox (because of page code)! On this cache I also see its image in IE correctly, but in forefox it looks like image file is missing (404). I tried to play with image url and when I use its address with uppercased extension (".JPG" instead of original ".jpg"), it works. Also strange. I'm not sure if the second problem isn't some sort of FireFox bug (I don't believe it much), but the first one is definitely geocaching.com problem.
