You should use the "edit your code" link that appears after
the source listing to fix bad nodes rather than reposting
them. If that link doesn't appear because the html is too
severely corrupt you can still edit the node by constructing
the following perlmonks url:
/index.pl?displaytype=edit&node_id=56537&lastnode_id=56537
That example uses the node_id of your first attempt to post
the LDAP Searcher. Just add the domain you
usually use to access perlmonks so your cookie works.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
