The only problem occurs if there's a minor version or revision that gets over 100.

Some people complain about it, but I haven't seen problems. I upgraded WP and of course lost my custom anti-captcha, so I decided to try this one. I'll write more about this later; the upgrade has been educational. In any event I'll probably get into the code and try to fix the math thing. I suspect it's a cookie problem.

I use them to fool the mysql command line client to preserve comments in stored procedures: delimiter $$ create procedure p() begin /*!99999 Comments go here */ -- code goes here end; $ see: http://rpbouman.blogspot.com/2006/12/mysql-stored-routines-and-command-line.html Hi Baron!

yeah, these comments can be pretty useful sometimes. I use them to fool the mysql command line client to preserve comments in stored procedures:

delimiter $$

create procedure p()
begin
/*!99999
Comments go here
*/
— code goes here
end;
