I suppose that stands for Bulletin Board Markup Language? Yes, 100% mine although ive seen plenty of message boards that use the brackets around text to identify something like an image or a html tag
I see youve signed up so youve probably seen the post form. the buttons that are there are the tags that are allowed, plus the smiley faces everything else displays as text, attempted script postings are laughed at and made fun of publicly... (i couldnt resist) most important.... keeping newly replied to posts and threads at the top and believe it or not smiley faces.... i left those out to start with but i was bombarded with posts and emails demanding smileys and avatar images. some things never get old to some people.... password retrieval, personal profile editing... the list goes on this one is fairly new and still growing. feel free to grab the js code to insert text onclick the output is simple enough.... replace(message, "[b]", "<b>", "ALL") replace(message, "[lol]", "<img src=""images/lol.gif"">", "ALL") #message# I've shown this to a couple others and they both said, "Why not just do your replace when you insert the message into the database" trust me, enter it into the database just like you see it in the form field. you'll just end up screwing yourself when you decide to create the ability for users to Edit" their own posts. if you want to know anything else about it specifically, let me know ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim Davis" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, July 30, 2003 5:35 PM Subject: RE: Message board / forums > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Ewok [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Sent: Wednesday, July 30, 2003 11:07 PM > > To: CF-Talk > > Subject: Re: Message board / forums > > > > I've tried quite a few CF message boards and wasn't completley happy until > > I > > wrote my own.
