I have a page that is exhibiting some odd behavior.
If I click on
EDIT, the code for the page appears, but then if I click on PREVIEW,
the preview view is blank as is the code block.
There is a warning at the top of the page that says it is longer than
32k and recommends shortening it because some browsers may have
trouble editing it. What is odd is that another page has the same
warning, but it displays just fine in both editing and preview modes.
Why do browsers have this limitation? And how do I get around it? I
really don't want to shorten the page.
Because they're Netscape 4.x or earlier or any browser for 16-bit
Windows or Mac OS 9 or earlier, where the OS's text edit widgets had a
32kb text length limitation due to the 16-bit legacy code.
So... unless you're editing on an ancient ancient browser, that's
probably not your actual problem. :)
