i was replying to elkarts post regarding using your api and i included in that post some of your xml responses from your api requests and it looks like your myfxbook site does not escape some of the html properly and the page just sortof bombed.

In my experience (and I've already reported a couple dozen bugs for Ethan) they fix bugs quite fast, if you use that green report bug icon on the top right (see?) and if you're specific about the problem. You know those software guys, 'sort of bombed' might be too general of a description 😁

There are some URLs that seem to choke the parser, right ...

Surround yourself with people whose eyes light up when they see you and who have no agenda for your reform.

those url's fail to display properly cuz i am guessing that they are not properly converting them to clickable links.

they arent parsing their html properly.

no disrespect meant to the fine myfxbook guys.

nice website.

A fix will be applied to the next version release.

Thanks for pointing it out.
