The reason I ask is that if someone posts in an old message, I don't see the symbol. Can I change this? Don't want to miss any crucial posts ;)
Speaking of bugs ;) is there ny way of getting around the white-space deletion thingy?
As in...
>>the little! symbol
...in my first sentence above. I included a space between the word little and the exclamation mark, but it was removed. Is there a 'nbsp;' type code I could use, or should I just use extra spaces?
The perk of all this is that it also helps to discourage code posting. If you have studied forums, groups, or bbs messaging, you know the risks of heavy code forums - they die. People want quality interaction, not code dumps. It is a tough balance between allowing it when neccessary for a thread, and becoming an annoyance to members.
Sorry, didn't mean to sound critical ;)
>>If you have studied forums
Have to admit it's not really my specialist subject!
The only time i've ever noticed the removal of spaces is when I've posted something where I wanted a symbol on it's own, like !
Which isn't very often, so I guess you have the balance right.
