 * He there,
 * I’ve been running WordPress a few days now, and up untill now it has happened
   two times sofar that the file /wp-admin/inline-uploading.php seems to break. 
   Why this happens is beyond me. I just don’t touch the files within the wp-admin
   dir myself.
 * Anyway, this is what happens. I can upload and select images fine and later when
   I get back to the write/edit page I can’t. Instead of the image upload functionality
   a scroll bar appears with one very long HTML comment tag without the closing 
   construct.
 * I.E.:
    <!————way long———-
 * Any ideas?
    The first time I fixed it by overwriting the file with an original
   one from the downloaded zip file. But since this is the second time I plan to
   debug it a little when I get home this afternoon.
 * This is the inline-uploading file as it is on my blog as we speak and this little
   puppy results in that long string of “–“‘s.
 * To me at first glance there’s nothing changed here. But I don’t have a correct
   version handy right now, blocking corp. firewall 🙁

 * Hi there,
 * Just FYI, I wouldn’t be surprised if your post gets moderated, long chunks of
   code don’t survive too long here 🙂
 * Could post long bits of code to pastebin.com in the future? That way you get 
   the added benefit of syntax highlighting!

 * Will do…
    Tnx for the tip. 😉
 * Took some time to find a pastebin that actually worked without timing out on 
   me.

 * Sigh!
 * This is embarrassing. At home, no problem at all.
 * My guess about the problem: Corp. Proxy caching the first time I had the problem.
   
   When I had the problem, there were no META tags in the HTML result therefor the
   proxy must have figured: “Cache untill eternity.”

 * Well I still have this problem – might it be fixed in the latest release? Unfortunately
   I can’t update due to a hectic template revision…
