• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

Ultimate Typetool Broken

Pronoun
they
Recently I tried using the site's Ultimate Typetool (http://www.dragonflycave.com/typetool.asp) only to have it crash when I attempt to add a fourth type or edit an existing custom type. The error is always a "500 - Internal server error."

Is this a common occurrence or is it because of my OS and/or web browser? I'd really like to use this without it breaking as I'm planning on doing a project with four custom types, including the Fairy type which isn't featured in the Typetool (requiring me to add it in).
 
That is an ancient version of the tool you're using - how did you even find that? It was replaced by this version in 2009, and that was later mostly replaced by the interactive type chart, which provides almost all of the type tool's functionality (including custom types) and more with a different presentation. Both of these up-to-date versions deal with custom types in a more robust way - the error you're encountering is what prompted the first rewrite.
