We have a bunch of updates sitting in stage so I think it'd be beneficial to push them soon.

Voici l'error. Perhaps it is just an issue with SQLite DB handling, or did I misconfigure the script, idk? I haven't tried any local MySQL instances yet.

I will try with the latest version to see if the bug has been fixed yet.

Ok, I have no idea what is wrong with my JavaScript now. It should be working, but it isn't. This is the error I'm getting:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13909567/cannot-read-property-innerhtml-of-null

Here's the JS... have any idea of what's wrong with it?

    <script>
      function disambig_replace( original_term, replacement_term ) {
        var disambig_textarea = document.getElementById("definitions").innerHTML; // definitions to be replaced
        var replacement = disambig_textarea.replace( original_term, replacement_term );
        document.getElementById("definitions").innerHTML = replacement;
      }
    </script>
