If I recall correctly, the listing ended with "<defunct", with no
closing ">". It's gone by now and I didn't think to save it when I
looked at it. I may not be remembering correctly (it may have been the
cpu page that had the "<defunct", not the client data page). If it pops
up again I'll save a copy. FYI, I use Firefox for my browser. I don't
know if the same thing happens with IE or not. 
Thanks,
Larry Barber

I think it's your browser that truncates the display at that point.
If you click on the "Client data" link - does that include the full
top/ps output ? It should, because that's sent with a content-type of "text/plain".
Would it be possible to filter those labels out? I suspect that

It should behave the same way, yes... It would make sense for Hobbit
to do some basic html-ification of the data before embedding it into
the  webpage. On the other hand, some of the status reports are
pre-formatted as HTML, so those should be left alone. Hmm...
