Journal Formatting - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

eyeseepeedude · 07-16-2003, 10:13 AM

How hard would it be to allow html codes (*or at least formatting*) in the journal section? I can understand the security concerns (*people adding scripts that kill the site*), so what would be a reasonable request on this?

I second this one. The journals should behave like the forums.

Right now, the journal is de-HTML-ified twice. I enter <b> and the source that comes out is &amp;lt;b&amp;lt;.

So first it's turned into &lt; - &gt;, then THOSE ampersands are escaped into &amp;....

Somebody's gone to some <i>trouble</i> to keep me from using bold text!

yeah, I know... I did the same thing and I was like "w?t?f?"

umm... ubb code still works guys...
here's a quicky rundown.
[ b] [/ b] bold
[ i] [/ i] italics
[ u] [/ u] underline
[url=yoururlhere ] hyperlinked text here[/ url]
[code ] [/ code] fixed-width spacing (not confident thisone'll work in journals, never had the need to try)

edit: TAKE THE SPACES OUT OF THE TAGS, OF COURSE!
