I went for a pretty ambitious test recipe (Heston Blumenthal's Egg in Verjus, Verjus in Egg), unfortunately I'm not able to save it - it's complaining that one of my ingredients is an invalid weight - 3.3 grams Gellan F. If I remove it then it complains about the ingredient before it, so I'm wondering if there's an ingredient limit? It's at about the 40th listed ingredient. It took me ages to input everything so I do hope I'm able to save it! The recipe entry experience was great though, some small details that I think would improve things even further: - Esc should clear the 'text entry' modal, I kept clicking this by accident when wanting to add a new section heading and it was a nuisance having to click the 'close' link - '+ Ingredient section' should replace last ingredient row if blank - Would be nice to have section headings (similar to 'ingredient sections' for recipe methods) to break up recipes with multiple discrete sections - Hard to find errors in long recipe. Could be more prominant, or add a 'jump to next error' button?

Thanks for the detailed issue. Sorry for the trouble! Could you send me the recipe link? I'm unsure know why you'd be hitting the issues you mentioned. I'll try to respond to the issues you raised one-at-a-time: 1. 3.3 grams should be valid. Unsure why that would be a problem unless some weird unicode stuff??? 2. There's no ingredient limit. 3. Esc clearing: I agree :) Clicking on the black transparency layer should also clear it. I just need to build it in. Maybe tomorrow :) 4. Plus -- you're right. Hadn't thought of that 5. Headings: I've left that for users to choose to do on their own. Hard to get too strict about that stuff. (Same reason steps aren't numbered.) I'd suggest doing all caps and a line break at each section. 6. Errors: I agree. There are a number of things ahead of that on the list of priorities, but it's a good idea. Thanks for the descriptive feedback! Heston Blumenthal's recipes are always welcome on the site! Let me know if you run into any other trouble.
