Re:

Suggest that you include a few spaces between your digits, and maybe some underscores:


1 _ 2 _ 3 _ 4

Re:

OK, that worked, but the tags above and below the sequence disappeared from my listing.

But I restate that I believe certain characters are being deliberately edited before they actually land on the Perplexus server, for security reasons.

Re:

the tags in the forums work fine but submitting a new perplexus problem has a few issues:

the / char after preview gets doubled // preview again //// ...

this is an exponential problem

Re:

OK! We've been down this track quite a few times in an attempt to sort out this problem.

Note that the "/" character is used in javascript to 'flag' an 'Escape character'.

Levik obviously understands that certain combinations of escape sequences can have HUGE security problems, like even erasing the server. I am not going to pretend that I know the full extent of this issue, but it is apparently possible for a 'malicious poster' to reek havok if certain tools are at his/her disposal.

Consider that in certain situations Levik allows us use the < pre > and < / pre > but in other cases they are lost to us; maybe we are allowed to use them where the site is accepting basic HTML directives.

But back to your problem.
Submit your problem to the queue as would be normal, but at the same time post a note for one of the scholars to make the adjustment that you require. In fact, one of them may take up further for you within this thread.
