there are Two Major Errors occurring on the forum right now that prevent posting, and here is how you can get around them

Step 1:
click , scroll to the bottom under "Miscellaneous Options" and choose "Basic Editor - A simple text box" from the drop down menu, then hit click "Save Changes"

Step 2:
if you still get an error when posting, be aware that the following combinations in your post will also cause this problem

a) the word "from" anywhere after the words "select" or "delete"

b) the words "set" or "copy" anywhere after "update"

c) the word "into" anywhere after the word "insert"

d) any relative directory references like "../"

e) a "<" followed by a non-breaking character (so put a space after it)

f) the word "code" also causes some problems that I couldn't trace, so you may want to use
CODE
 tags instead of 
CODE
 tags when posting code

Step 3:
if you still find an error after that, cut out lines of text until you find the offending line, and then check each word used in that line, to see which once causes the problem... then insert a period in the middle of it or misspell it purposes and post the "bad" word here, so others might avoid it too

NOTE:
this applies to thread titles too!

Hmmmm....

Nope, just tried re-arranging the order of your examples, and broke it. You were able to get away with Steps 2a-2c because of the order in which you presented the keywords. Dunno about relative directory references, but trying to duplicate it broke it for me. Not sure how you managed to get away with that one...

Not ever instance of a left bracket "<" will cause problems, but rather it may depend on what character or set of characters immediately follows it.
