Looks like the Great Firewall or something like it is preventing you from completely loading www.skritter.com because it is hosted on Google App Engine, which is periodically blocked. Try instead our mirror:

legacy.skritter.cn

This might also be caused by an internet filter, such as SafeEyes. If you have such a filter installed, try adding appspot.com to the list of allowed domains.

Information box breaks app layout, can't read all text

When clicking the down "v" icon when studying on iPhone 5, to see more information about the current word and examples of its use, the texts can be too long, stretching out of the screen (I think 家 was one of those words).

The text just awkwardly stretches out on top of the layout and scrolling is not possible (so the later parts of the text are not even readable).

It stretches off the screen entirely? That's no good; I'll put it on the bug list for the 4" screens. Ideally it would scroll, but failing that it should at least truncate.

The text just keeps on going, I can see the beginning of the last row cut off by the end of the screen but I can't scroll down to read what it says.

Another bug, in the forum, is that the link I posted appears as I pasted it, but the actual URL (when clicking the link) has been altered ("%2021" became "%252021", oddly), causing it to break.

Just hover the mouse over the URL and you can easily spot the differences. To properly view the link you have to copy the URL instead of clicking the link.

If it doesn't work the first time, try loading the URL a second time, as Dropbox seems a bit shaky as well... (jeeze...)

Thanks, that helps. Yeah, the forum can be picky with links. Maybe updating our Django would help with that.
