i just thought i would bring this to your attention:
[spoil]this is spoil[/spoil]
this is a horizontal rule:
[hr]
[s]this is strike through[/s]
[sup]this is superscript[/sup]
[sub]this is subscript[/sub]

and none of them work :!:

Hi Glib. I hope you get an interesting answer from someone.

I investigated what tags do work, and posted a message on the Dino Aspies Cafe thread. Off the top of my head, list, list=1, list=a, size=n (n = 1..29), color=<name> <name>=red,green,etc (not sure what the full named range is), color=#<6digithex>.

HTH

Rats... I thought I'd still dig out what I did on D.A.C. anyway. It's probably worth saying again...

Colors work... at least some of them:
color=red
color=orange
color=yellow
color=green
color=blue
color=indigo
color=violet
color=#D15C05
I was annoyed it wouldn't let them to work inside

Code:
code
(because I was trying to do some coloured-in ASCII art... IIRC Glib's red-eyed avatar).

Trying out various sizes:
|[size=0]size=0[/size]|size=1|size=2|size=3|size=4|
|size=5|size=6|size=7|size=8|size=9|
|size=10|size=11|size=12|standard|size=13|size=14|
|size=15|size=16|size=17|size=18|size=19|
|size=20|size=21|size=22|size=23|size=24|
|size=25|size=26|size=27|size=28|size=29|
|size=30| and onward don't seem to work, but that's not a problem

bold, italic and underline do their thing

Unordered
    list
  • Blob-
  • a-
  • lob
done.
Numeric
    list=1
  1. One
  2. Two
  3. Three
done.
Alpha
    list=a (or A)
  1. Eh?
  2. Bee
  3. Sea
done.
I thought "
    list=2
  1. Two
  2. Three
" might work, but it doesn't.
There endeth the lesson.

I wonder... if we chat back and forth... will keeping the thread up the list get a response? :)

i'm willing to try, voilà it's back up...

it does bother me too, buttons that don't work, in the end i never even use them, not even for quotes or images, it's almost quicker by hand, it would have been a good idea to have working buttons though.

A little quick, but another shot at keeping this going.

(Come on the rest of you "perusers"... help the measly four of us!)

I would actually like to see color and size tags. when the bar was first put there it had something so you could make words in which colors fade from one too the next.

although not being able to do things when there are options for them is incredably annoying

what was this one supposed to do.

I think there is an option somewhere in the profile to activate or deactivate tags. Maybe check to see if yours is activated?

"Always allow BBCode" should have "yes" selected.
