		+	* Version 2.2.2 works fine on GNU Emacs 24.0.94.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) when there is no challenge (e.g. arithmetic problem). But when external links are added, so there is a challenge, mediawiki doesn't alert the user or show the arithmetic problem. The only evidence of failure is that the page is never updated.
