<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> Many moons ago I mentioned that the conference module often cuts off </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> chat messages if they contain XML metacharacters like quotes, angle </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> brackets, etc. In fact I've had to make my client translate those </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> characters into less offensive ones (like curly quotes) on </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> the way out </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> to avoid hitting this bug.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> Now I found a related problem: Multi-line conference messages often </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> appear to get cut off after the first line. (That is, a newline is </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> causing message truncation just like the XML metacharacters </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> do.) What's </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> weird is that the sender will (about half the time) be echoed </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> the full </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> message, but other people in the chat never receive the full message. </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> I've looked at the raw XML on both sides to verify this.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>> This is with the 1.4.1 server on Solaris.</FONT>
