Orphan Sonnet Contest Problem Fixed

Blog Posted by Dale Gregory Cozart: 5/13/2019 2:41:00 PM

PS asked if I was getting an error message. I wasn't. However I did notice the cursor kept returning to the contest title field when I tried to make updates. It contained a period(.). Since that punctuation isn't allowed in poem titles I decided to remove it to see if that made a difference. Lo and behold it did. The text now reflects the correct number of quatrains(three). Thanks everyone for your patience.

On another entirely unrelated note concerning howmanysyllables.com. The site is almost always accurate. The one area in which your syllables may be under or over counted by one is if a word in the line contains an apostrophe. I don't know if anyone else noticed, but I thought I'd mention it.

Yes, there is always some kind of little thing like a glitch that messes things up. I think I noticed that thing you mentioned over at howmanysllables too!!
