Dave and list,
On the edit page for the list of developers and what state there in, a big
thing I found is that even though I changed the checkbox to tell the wiki
that I didn't support tabs, it still failed to put them in correctly and so
the text was all dorked when I viewed the edit.
So the solution I used was to copy the entire list into TextEdit which does
support tabs, do my edit, then paste back into the edit field. Then submit
my changes..... When I did this, everything worked correctly and my edit
went in.
Thanks and maybe this information will help others as well,

I hope this helps those of you who have not used WIKI in the past, but
