I'm commandeering this thread to test an URL which failed the Phorum Phamily Philter, so that I had to leave it out of the yellow lines thread http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?5,1308806,1309072. I'll try selectively chopping bits off until it gets through, and then see how useful what's left is.

Now, can anyone suggest what it is in the string shown in Result.gif that causes the problem?

Now testing exclusion of sub-segments of that URL.


&location-local-authority-1=The%20London%20Borough%20of%20Fouthwark


It appears to be the three-character string 2 0 S [without intervening spaces] that the Phorum filter is rejecting.


Remedy: replace the %20 (the standard encoding in URLs of the Ascii Hex code for space), at least in those locations where the next character is an S, with an HTML code for space - ie an & immediately followed by #32; or nbsp; [end of sentence]


Et voilà: https://www.thegazette.co.uk/all-notices/notice?start-publish-date=2014-01-01&location-local-authority-1=The%20London%20Borough%20of Southwark&categorycode=G411000001&location-distance-1=1&noticetypes=1501&numberOfLocationSearches=1&results-page-size=10


Alternative remedy: amend the filter list.

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
