For some reason toady the download link on a code section of my scratchpad stopped working. I noticed it straight away becauase that's where my perlmonks css comes from!

a download link from any code section of my public scratchpad yields the following:

<span style="color: #cc0000" class="error">Server Error (Error ID 7977
+889a70370)</span><p>An error has occurred.  The site administrators
    have been notified of the problem and will likely
    soon fix it.  Thank you, for you're patients.</p>
[download]

And it's exactly like that - in all it's text/plain glory!

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• 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).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
