    I just tried again but no go. I was going to remove the links as they are no good.

    It's the funky apostrophe in Pillar's name. Reply to yourself.. remove her name, the apostrophe, and the quote tags.. save.. and then I bet you'll be able to edit.

    This isn't a good thing, but at least I know where to start tracking down the problem. I was having the same problem with the apostrophe in Mitt Romney's name from the WashPo article.. Ajax is choking on the encoding.

    Yes, I can edit the "new" post. Still not the old post. I simply made a new post before with proper links. I was just curious whats up. As for the apostrophe, its from a Spanish Keyboard. A lot of the characters are slightly different on her keyboard.

    Also, on a gaming forum I was mod on they had the same issue with said apostrophe not too long ago. If it is any help I could ask the admin what was causing the issue but I dont think they used the same forum software so I am not sure it will do any good.

    Well, it's an UTF-8/ISO-8859-1 thing. Might even be a server setting.. because it's working on another implementation of vBulletin 4.2 that I have.. and all the other settings match AFAIK. Still researching.
