    Does anyone regularly check the myspace? Just set all comments to be approved before they post. Then you can delete all the ones with HTML embedded. I’m sure there would be a ton of comments to sort through, but at least it’s better than destroying the page for however long the comment stays there.

    Also, you can set width restrictions for images, if you allow html comments.
    (for example: td.text table img {width:300px; max-width:300px; width:auto;) Or something to that matter.

    yeah bands usually don’t allow html on their myspace for this very reason.

    Which is why the line can’t break, because it just becomes a long long of ridiculous code, thus widening the container. I think it’s easier to just allow html and force the image to resize so the container won’t widen.

    You can also put the entire comments table in an iframe, which also eliminates the problem.
