LOL I was so close to quitting this forum. I tried posting the financial data of penny stocks, and I hit a snag. I was using XML to maintain the integrity and format of the data, but this board does not permit the tags used in XML. Also, the bigger problem was the size of the data. I think I nearly caused this website to crash once or twice when I tried posting 16MB and 3.5MB worth of data!

I'm now considering where I go from here. I don't think it will be practical to post the financial information of every stock on this forum. I really don't want to give up on this forum, because I like the idea of giving investors basic expectations from penny stocks. So any suggestions are welcome.

Maybe send the xml files to me (webmaster) and I will post them to the site. Then you can link to them from the forum.

The server has a lot of room left so posting them shouldnt be a problem as well. just maybe post pre market or after hours.

I think I have a better idea Bob, but I need to confer with someone first. Thanks anyway, very gracious of you.

I have lost the ability to continue developing this forum. As usually happens with forums, the creator is leaving it up to the public to fill it, while taking on a passive moderator role. I will probably still contribute to the content, but sporadically.
