Submit POI changed a number
I was attempting to submit my first POI (in Nek Forest). The submissioin form changed a number, resulting in a location on the opposite side of the map. I think there aren't enough spaces in the form. I tried submitting it with and without commas between the three numbers but that resulted in zeros (0.00) for the second and third numbers. The number I was trying to submit is (-707.54, 81.04, -1,606.02). The form truncated the third number and moved the decimal point to 1.60.

Yep, thats your problem.
You cannot use commas or anything in that number system. Commas are a way of easily reading large numbers and should never be used when entering data. It's more a human-ease thing... but it makes it hard for computers. Especially when you consider that Europe would right $1,999.99 as $1.999,99 And thats why we don't input commas ;) |
Maybe when parsing user input for POIs an error message with an explanation should be given if there are more than two commas.
