I tried to edit the article through the form for editors rather than the normal form. To my surprise that did not show me the CKEditor; the pulldown for the format at the top of the page was set to 'Text'. When I edited through the contributers form, it was always set to HTML, and I did get a CKEditor, unless I had switched JavaScript off. So I switched it to HTML (but also had the checkbox 'use HTML tags in text' checked) before saving.

This gave me the same corruption, and disappearance of the orthodox pieces from the piece table.

So I went back to the contributer edit form, to reinstate the previous version, and everything worked again.

But something had changed: If I now go to the contributer edit form, the pull-down at the top is set to Text, instead of HTML, and no CKEditor, just plain HTML textareas. So I tried the edit again, and this time saved as 'Text' (assuming this was what you had done). This faithfully saved the edits. The comparison shows no corruption, just the changes, and the resulting page works properly.

It seems that the corruption occurs exclusively when you save in HTML mode (with or without CKEditor, as it also occurs with JavaScript off). Which is a bit strange, as the text I am saving is clearly HTML. Anyway, this solves my problem for being able to edit the article, now that I know how to do it. So I made it use the local fen2.php now.
