I just tried uploading the code as an attachment instead and got:

There seems to have been a slight problem with the SL Forums database.
Please try again by pressing the refresh button in your browser.

An E-Mail has been dispatched to our Technical Staff, who you can also contact if the problem persists.

We apologise for any inconvenience.

So I guess it is one of those, ever so rare, SL Database glitches again, I will try tomorrow instead.

Forms have been borked again for the last few days. It doesn't really matter what you are trying to post, even a simple, one sentence post will do it sometimes. 403 & 404 errors are common. Just keep trying and eventually it will get through correctly. Same thing happened a few months ago and then it last for a couple of weeks. Wouldn't doubt that they may be doing some work on the forum backend, not holding my breath on the upgrade though.

it will probably sort out in a few days - we'll know something is seriously wrong if posts start getting trunca

the file not found error is often related to the // characters used for comments... especially if they have 2 dots preceeding them... I ran into this some time back and reported it. you can find the specificcombination of characters by adding the post back one line at a time, and hitting preview... if the preview shows up, that line will post normally
