 Posted: Thu May 11, 2006 6:36 am Post subject: Can you BOLD within CODE? |
 |
|
Here is an example. The bold tags are typed by hand:
| Code: |
+--------------+
| - - x |
| 46 - [b]246[/b] |
| - - x |
+--------------+
| 46 - 469 |
| - - x |
| - - 29 |
+--------------+
| - - x |
| - - x |
| - - x |
+--------------+
|
Why does this not work? Try again. The bold tags are generated by highlighting the text, then clicking the B button:
| Code: |
+--------------+
| - - x |
| 46 - [b]246[/b] |
| - - x |
+--------------+
| 46 - 469 |
| - - x |
| - - 29 |
+--------------+
| - - x |
| - - x |
| - - x |
+--------------+
|
I guess I don't get it. The phBB Help says:
| Quote: | All formatting used within tags is retained when you later view it.
|
Really?
One more try:
| Code: |
+--------------+
| - - x |
| 46 - [b="246"][/b] |
| - - x |
+--------------+
| 46 - 469 |
| - - x |
| - - 29 |
+--------------+
| - - x |
| - - x |
| - - x |
+--------------+
|
and one more:
+--------------+
| - - x |
| 46 - 246 |
| - - x |
+--------------+
| 46 - 469 |
| - - x |
| - - 29 |
+--------------+
| - - x |
| - - x |
| - - x |
+--------------+
| Code: |
+--------------+
| - - x |
| 46 - 246 |
| - - x |
+--------------+
| 46 - 469 |
| - - x |
| - - 29 |
+--------------+
| - - x |
| - - x |
| - - x |
+--------------+

Keith,
I've tried, with no success, using different colors within the code tags (to make colouring chains easier to follow) and thought I was somehow doing something wrong. Coupled with your experience, it seems either we are both doing something wrong or it's just not possible. |

Tracy,
I agree.
But, I swear I saw a post which had bold within code.

Actually, I now think I saw the following:
A section enclosed by Quote looks a lot like a section enclosed by Code.
But, if you have a
| Quote: |
you can have bold within it.
|
I now believe that anything you put in a Code section comes out exactly as you put it in.

|
|
Would you please explain to a beginner how to put a grid into a message.
I do not understand the use of the "boxes" e.g. quote, list, etc.
Is there an explanation available for this format.
Thanks
