+Pear Head Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 I've tried on and off for the last hour without success. Link to comment
+Dr. House Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 I'm continuously getting this error since 11:15pm EST. Anyone else? Link to comment
+casadelrut Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 (edited) I'm continuously getting this error since 11:15pm EST. Anyone else? I also cannot place a new cache. --EDIT-- I just realized that if I UNCHECK "the description below is in HTML" it works. Edited April 10, 2008 by casadelrut Link to comment
+dandichka Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 I've been trying all yesterday evening, and now in the morning (8:40am).... no luck, and yes, I was using html. This is my first hide, btw. Thought I was doing something wrong. Link to comment
+Ming Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 No dice for me either and I'm trying to use HTML in my post.... 4/10/08 10:57am est Link to comment
+colin&daddy Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Same for me; trying all last night and this morning. I always check the html box when listing a cache. Plain text cache descriptions would be horrendous. I found that I could submit the cache without the html box checked, then edit the description to include html. Whatever, I'm sure it'll get corrected, but in the meantime, try it that way. Cheers. Link to comment

+Maingray Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 (edited) Same here... the workaround I just used is to submit a dummy description with the "use html" box unchecked, submit, and then go back and re-edit with the correct html in the description and the "use html' check box checked. Seems to go through then OK. Edited April 10, 2008 by Maingray Link to comment
+MountainRacer Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Same issue with the HTML not allowing the new cache to be submitted. Link to comment
