In one case, I’m trying to make major changes to the BadContent page - by sorting the lines and removing duplicates - so I can add a bunch of new entries. But I keep getting a “Trac Error” when I try to submit. Everything looks good in Preview however. Also I am trying to create a new HOWTO page about giving Finder write access to NTFS volumes using the ntfs-3g port. Every time I try to submit the new page, which looks good in Preview, I get the dreaded and unhelpful “Trac Error”. Any suggestions?

As I recall, the error message you get when you submit something that matches BadContent isn't very intuitive at all; it might just be “Trac Error”. There may be a few entries in BadContent that are too broad.

I don’t think my new HOWTO page has anything from the BadContent page, but I can’t easily verify that. Obviously the BadContent page does, but I am able to edit it to add a couple of new entries at the bottom from time to time. I have tried 2 browsers with no success: Safari 7.0.1 and Firefox 27.0. I also tried using the inspector and Firebug and they didn’t yield any clues as to what is happening.
