I tried adding this link:

And whenever I try I get this:

Error: 500
simplexml_load_string(): Entity: line 1: parser error : Start tag
expected, ‘<’ not found Click play to enjoy a little slice
of awesome. Be sure to check out Rick Astley’s dance moves in the
video…

I’m getting a similar error.

simplexml_load_string(): Entity: line 1: parser error : Space required after the Public Identifier

And it happened again. Is it something on my end? I’m looking at other submissions and some other people seem to be having a similar problem.

Edit: Thought I’d include other people’s submissions that have the same error.

Curiously, they’re submissions right next to mine.

I’m experiencing exactly the same thing.

Hi guys.

Sorry about this. We are looking into what happened.

I’ll reply here when we have a fix.

All, This has been fixed. Thank you for reporting this and for your patience. The recommendation service we use for suggestions on theory tab pages, http://www.tastekid.com, pushed breaking changes to their API today (without notification), that caused the error you experienced. This error would have only shown up when submitting a theory tab by a new artist (one without any other theory tabs), since that is when we first make the call to the TASTEKiD API.
