OK, here's the deal.  There is something timing-related about having a large
amount of markup to process and whether the controller is called once or
twice.  On small amounts of text, the controller is called once for each
press of the "show" or "save" buttons.  On large text blocks, where there is
about 1/2 sec. or longer taken to process the text in the controller, it is
called twice for each button press.

To eliminate the dependency, I thought I would use Ajax to call the text
processing asynchronously.  That's not going too well yet -- the text
conversion method gets called but the data never appears in the page at the
<div id="target"> tag.  Not sure why yet.
