See Bills review here: http://lifein19x19.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=3134#p3134 I click "Download SGF" but the resulting file is not the correct sgf. It ends prematurely. The eidogo player on the page has the comment "End of comment" at move 143. That comment is not in the downloaded file. Please help me enjoy Bills awesomeness in a downloaded sgf. |

The sgf ends prematurely after "die big " in comment for move #87. Code: better to live small than die big <img src="./images/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif" alt=":-)" title="Smile"> Nope. It is better to live big. See variation. Must be the img tag. |

Yes, looks like it. See move 87. Smileys should not be converted to images inside sgf tags. Admins, pls help. |

Test: My attempt at salvaging the sgf (downloadable with one minor glitch, see below) My analysis so far: the first sgf posted contained a smiley Code: :-) at move 87. Upon downloading, it gets expanded into HTML with some angle brackets. When this gets posted again, it is not downloadable.Another issue: The plus sign in the sgf result tag Code: [W+43.5] gets converted into a space (url encoding?), resulting in a warning when opening the file in cgoban3.

You're awesome. How did you do that? Do you have admin powers? |

Looks like two bugs. One is URL encoding as ChradH suggested. That's pretty easy to fix. The other is harder. BBcodes can't be told not to mangle their contents, so the best I can do is unmangle them. I have to strip out extra <br> tags for instance. Looks like I'll have to do some others as well. I'll add them to my todo list (probably won't be able to take care of them until the weekend). |

OK, partial fix in place. One problem is that the download thingy passes the SGF data to the server as a GET parameter in a URL, and there is a length limit. SGF files usually come in under it, but not always. So there is a size limit on SGF files that are embedded inline as text. I plan to work around that by POSTing the data to the server, but that's going to require more work. There are a lot less problems when you embed them by URL (no weird encoding things, no weird download hack, etc.), but I know not everybody has web space to upload SGF files to. But I just made a small change that lets you embed SGF files that are attached to your post, which should be way more convenient than loading it up in a text editor and copying and pasting the code. Code: [sgf-full]http://lifein19x19.com/forum/download/file.php?id=35[/sgf-full] [sgf-full]http://lifein19x19.com/forum/download/file.php?id=35[/sgf-full]

As you say, long sgfs will lead to problems in the future. But one can't solve all problems at the same time

Doesn't work for me, I get "There was a problem retrieving the game data." |

Attached sgf works fine here (Firefox 3.6.3). @fwiffo: How do you create these posts? Save once with attached sgf file to know the url, then edit post to add sgf tags? It would be super-convenient if you could post in one go by writing something like Code: [sgf-full]ATTACHED-SGF[/sgf-full] (limited to one sgf per post) or even more comfortable, identifying sgf by file name, thus allowing multiple sgfs: Code: [sgf-full]attachment:filename.sgf[/sgf-full] (probably difficult to implement) [edit]These declarations within the sgf tags should be replaced by the actual attachment url on posting |

@Phelan: For the one I just posted? What browser are you using? Are you logged in to http://www.lifein19x19.com or the URL without the www.? @ChradH: I add the file then click "preview" - the attachment will show up in the preview area. I copy the URL from there and then put it inside the SGF tags. I know that's not convenient, but the change to make that much possible was a pretty quick fix that I was able to do last night. I have exactly the sort of thing you have in mind, but it'll take more development. Actually, what I'd like to do is be able to use the "place inline" button with SGF files the way you would for images. |

That's better than having to edit the post every time. By the way, I absolutely like the attachment idea and am amazed how quick you found this solution which works really well. Big thumbs up! |

A URL! A URL! My kingdom for a canonical URL! Should be good now. One potential problem is that I don't think guests can download attachments. I don't know if this is something we should care about though. |

Works now. I don't think guests can download attachments on any forum that I know of. |
