I have been extremely ill, so if I repeat something that has been discussed, or am just lame in general, please give me a pass on this one.

[Response to Michael:]

I assume you meant <br> as a carriage return (in the "Support and Whois Information for your Customers" link in the Reseller control panel), because it says (and does) strip out html. I put in a return and it made 2 lines. (The <BR> was removed when I tried that.)

[Questions for anyone:]

Is there a way to disable the "This setting will enable/disable viewing the above information in public whois." option in the customer's control panel without modifying the code in manage.cgi (make it so the customer cannot remove our info from the whois output)? In other words, is there some ready to go code in to add to OpenSRS.conf?

The Reseller control panel states "Note that the Registrant can opt out of having this information displayed", so I assume it is not built in as a configuration setting for us, and apparently a decision made by Tucows to give the end user the option. I prefer having the option to turn it on or off.

Also, how's that request coming that I made (which was backed up by several others on this list) to make first and last names optional in whois contacts? To reiterate, currently my whois states:

Dept., Admin

and I would like only one name without the forced comma:

Admin

or Admin Dept., etc.

Sydney

There is only one line that wraps.  I modified my WHOIS to substiture
"DNS/Nameservers" text with "<br>DNS/Nameservers"  Not an optimal fix but
it works.

 This text looks really bad in web based output because it's not being
 wrapped.  It's just one long line.

 I suggest some wrapping logic be added to automatically wrap the text at 70
 cols or so...
