I'm receiving an invalid syntax error when running from Windows. I do not
receive the error when running the same code from my Webfaction account on
CentOS. The error appears to be related to compiling of the code. I assume
the compile code is taking issue with the HTML helper functions which allow
_myattribute="Value" to be translated into the HTML myattribute="Value". Am I
just missing something simple? This has been driving me crazy.
Thanks,
Mike

SyntaxError: invalid syntax
P.S. I tried applying the html_helpers tag to this post but kept receiving the
error message: An error (#357) occurred while communicating with the server.
After some quick googling it appears google groups does not like underscores in
tags; hyphens seem to work though (source

I've also been having this problem when trying to create a [NEW POST] from the
web interface. (The welcome message is only 4 words long!)
After about an hour of banging my head against the wall, it turns out that the
problem was with the Tags having 2 words and certain characters.
Examples of Tags that worked, didn't work:
Tag - Result
---------------------
milk/honey - Not OK Error Message 357
milk_honey - Not OK Error Message 357
milk-honey - OK, Message Posted
( no tag ) - OK, Message Posted
So, there you go.
