Civility in critiquing the ideas of others is no vice. Rudeness in defending your own ideas is no virtue.


First success for SWAT team
Fri 14 May 2004, 09:47 AM
This was actually fixed prior to my original post, but I thought it would be good to keep track...

The first reproduced and fixed bug due to the SWAT team's reporting was found.  In short, if a table had a <TBODY> tag before the <TR> tag, the table was shown twice and table and row attributes were ignored on one copy.  It turned out to be a fairly simple fix, the customer has tried it, and verified it works.

Success #1

Second success for SWAT team
Fri 14 May 2004, 04:48 AM
The second reproduced and fixed bug due to the SWAT team's reporting was found.  This was odd.  After several strings of text, all set to the same font, but set explicitly, somewhat like:

<font color='Black' size='2' face='Courier New'>Text 1</font><font color='Black' size='2' face='Courier New'>Text 2</font><font color='Black' size='2' face='Courier New'>Text 3</font><font color='Black' size='2' face='Courier New'>Text 4</font>

the font inexplicably changed from Courier New to Aria for subsequent text.  This was a more buried bug, but basically happened because an array was defined with its parameters switched, so instead of 

saved_fontnames[MAX_SAVED_FONTFACES][MAXFACESIZE+1];

it had

saved_fontnames[MAXFACESIZE+1][MAX_SAVED_FONTFACES];

which had the odd reaction.  Fortunately, the loop could never exceed the incorrect parameter, so it didn't produce crashes, but it did produce odd results after the tenth iteration.

Success #2
