Error message when trying to edit and Instructable
On my Mini Metal Lathe
Initially I was editing text on the first page, changed my mind then undid the changes and performed a save. Subsequent edit attempts have all failed with the the following error preventing any changes.
Firefox 3.6.23 (PC Windows XP) and Firefox 3.6.21 ( Intel MacBook OSX 16.6.8):

According to email correspondence with an Instructables staff, there seems to be no cure for the "parsererror", except to delete the entire Instructable and completely set up a new one.
I find this drastic remedy kind of irritating, as the posted date is, with some of us, a kind of a modest accolade, for our innovative work.
So far, two of my Instructables are barred from further editing, by this "parsererror" bug.

well, until now I have been able to edit my instructable and it doesn't work but now I'm stuck on the UPDATING screen and it doesn't do anything.
I am having this problem on a draft I have wanted to resume working on. I ended up restarting fresh but cannot delete the draft which still has an error.
The only significant difference I notice between my published versus my draft is that the title of the draft contains parentheses "()".

Whoever located and fixed this bug, Thank you. It seems to be working now
