When I try to edit my project notes on my projects and add this text "<3" and when you press ok It deletes everything you wrote after it.

Is this a problem, or is it supposed to do it?

Do "<3". It's a bug.

Yeah, you have to use HTML codes for that.

Maybe this should go in either All About Scratch or Troubleshooting?

No. I'm suggesting it gets fixed. big_smile

Suggestions are more for new features, and I wouldn't describe a bug fix as such. hmm I'll move this to Troubleshooting for you. smile Either way, yes, it's a longstanding bug - one which I'd have thought the Scratch team would have fixed by now!

The good news is that it is in the bug-tracking system (#480). The not-so-good news is that it isn't marked as very high priority and it hasn't been fixed yet.

I can imagine that it's a real pain when a good chunk of your project note text disappears on you...I'll start the discussion to see if the priority should be raised.

As I said to Lightnin, "Just 2 lines of RegExp, I think. D:" Such an easy fix, to parse "<" as "&lt".
I'm pretty bad at RegExp, but even I can give the JS code for it!

Code:

//This assumes that the project notes are stored in a variable "project_notes".
project_notes = project_notes.replace(/</g,"&lt;");
project_notes = project_notes.replace(/>/g,"&gt;");
