Hello Charles, Oh! Have you read my post "BUG No.3" ? This is not a bug in the WHOIS neither in any protocol! This is a bug in the client code, in XML_Client.pm !
I can give you an example when bad data will go to the WHOIS: someone register 3 domains in bulk order and put quotes in any field for the domain (address line for example). The first domain will have correct data, the second will have " instead a quote char, and the third will have " instead a quote char. Please read my message posted here about the bug, seems you are ignoring it :) We fixed it in our system but we are not going to clean up bad data for all of our clients in the WHOIS, as I am sure we will break something else hehe (just joking). But once again - please pass the bug to your developers so they could fix it, and clean up the WHOIS. Anyway this will happen again, as I guess a lot of resellers don't update their code, or don't fix bugs themselves... But at least I'll be sure that our clients will have correct data for their domain names. P.S. I also haven't got any reply about the "limit=>2" problem - what is that, as it is undocumented in the API doc.
