The contact form is restricted to 200 characters.
given that there's maxlength=200 attribute on that field, you could probably just open up the element inspector, delete that attribute, and post as long a message as you liked, plus a 500-word mini-rant on why artifical limits like 200 chars are annoying. chromium, firefox, and even the pretentiously named "Web" by the even more pretentiously named "The Web Developers" (gnome's browser, used to be called epiphany) have an element inspector built in. probably others do too. btw, speaking "Web" and gnome apps - even the few gnome apps i use with xfce (evince regularly, web occasionally) are becoming unusable - it's almost as if they're deliberately making them incompatible with anything not-gnome. i first noticed it about a week ago, evince no longer has text menus and button labels, it now has inscrutable icons[1] which are, for some bizarre reason, now on the *right* hand side of the menu bar instead of on the left where they've been forever and where they are in every other GUI app. [1] IMO, hieroglyphics are for ancient egyptians and modern illiterates. they certainly make no sense at all to me. craig -- craig sanders <cas@taz.net.au>
