As seen below, the characters are switching. It happens when switching between editing modes.
alt 0177 = ±
alt 234 = Ω
alt 0163 = £
alt 230 = µ
Those are suppose to be
±
Ω
£
µ
But as you can see, when I flipped modes, it changes to ±:, &Omega, etc.

Test: ± Ω £ µ
they appear okay using Palemoon and under view / character encoding / unicode
Explain what you mean by flipped modes. I did not "flip modes" I simply typed my reply and used the numeric keybad to type in the codes you listed.
I did notice that the spacing between the 4 characters changed after I posted.

By flip modes, I mean the little light switch icon (upper left corner of Reply box) above the "B"old button in the forum software used to "Toggle editing mode".

±
Ω
£
µ
The symbols appear correctly.
When I change back to what I normally use, they get strange as you noted.
May I ask why you toggle the editing mode? Obviously I've never done that when I post here so I can't figure out when I'd need to do this.

I tried Palemoon, Firefox and Internet Explorer.
It is now down to 1 page with 2 topics.
What happened to all the topics?
Oh wow, I have no idea. Let me see if I see anything. If not, I will email Scott and ask if he did anything. He hasnt worked for them in quite some time so maybe he finally removed it.

There was a massive top-down editorial lay off in late May. Computerworld went from 16 staffers to 6.

Are we still getting value from this feed? I'm fine to take it down if that would be people's preference. Computerworld is no longer the powerhouse that it was in news before the recent restructuring. I think they have two or three reporters now. I think it's two. Plus IDG news was all but dismantled as well.
Let me know if you all still found the ComputerWorld posts to be useful at all.
Thanks

I didn't check it much anyway as it had devolved into too many posts which were mainly advertising.

Ok, I will relay the information. The topic is still up if we should choose another rss feed. Check the topic I linked to above.

You would have to ask him as I am not for sure.
