My website widgets display completely blank

Posted on 27. Jan, 2010 by Martin in What's bugging you? - Website Issues

A few of our members have added testimonials, built a widget and added it to their website only to find that nothing is displayed. If any of the testimonials within the widget contain hard-coded “newline” characters (e.g. “/n” or “/r/n”) then this causes our javascript displayer to malfunction, leaving your widget broken. Proper break characters (<br/>) and paragraphs (<p>) should continue to work ok.

We manually correct this situation where we see it occur – it is rare enough for us to be able to do that. We have a fixed version of the code ready to go, and will implement this over the next few days.
