    Ok. Both the link to John's profile and U's wordie guidelines are correct. Why can't I put two links in the same box?

    Wait wait, what are you trying to do here? I'm confused.

    In making my conversations list, I became frustrated because I couldn't include conversations on lists. (Like the one forming here.) I was going to make a list in the list description, but when you put in two links, Wordie gives you an error message. I don't want to make one comment per link, but I don't see any other way. :-/

    There are plenty of list descriptions with multiple links in them... you must be doing something wrong. Do you get an error message, or does the code just not work right? Are you putting both links back-to-back on the same line, or pressing Enter between each one?

    The problem is that I can't see any of the text. Instead, I get the new parsing error message. I pressed enter a couple of times and even added some text between the links. Both links worked when I copied them into independent locations. Any ideas?

    Should be fixed -- rather than give the parsing error, the code now just strips all html if it thinks it's wonky.

    How to write non-wonky html? Make sure it's xml/xhtml compliant. Some tips:

    - Close all your tags. So rather than using just a <p> tag to create a paragraph, wrap the whole paragraph with beginning and ending tags, <p>like this</p>.

    - If you use stand-alone tags, make them self-closing. It's <br />, not <br>. That goes for images tags, too: <img src="foo" />

    - Use lowercase characters in tags. It's <p>, not <P>.

    - Quote all tag attributes. It's <a href="http://wordie.org">, not <a href=http://wordie.org>;.

    Hope that helps.

    Yep, I think I'm doing everything to make my code as non-wonky as possible. I'm just using the code for hyperlinks that u sent me awhile ago.

    But John, no worries. If this means that I "need" to put each hyperlink it its own box, then that'll put me ahead of even slumry in citations for the week. Mwa-ha-ha-ha-ha
