Whatever happened to HTML?

[benorbeen]

Did you finally decide to turn it off, mullaney, or have I flipped a switch in my settings?

Boohoo. I already miss HTML.

 

[mullaney]

I did turn off html in most forums.

I don't get you, Telfer. Is that what html does, it wastes bandwidth?

I just saw some old posts, and now all the html formatting is exposed. Sad.

At least I squeezed this experiment in in time.

 

[DanTelfer]

If you like Ben, I could explain my joke until it is hilarious.

 

[mullaney]

Bandwidth is not really an issue anymore. No need to worry about it.

 

[benorbeen]

So if bandwidth wasn't the issue, please explain all the things I could have done when HTML was allowed!

 

[spacedani]

Kevin, can we have justify and center vB codes, at least, please?

Also, if you're feeling EXTRA fancy, could we have image manipulation codes? like to resize them, or to wrap text beside them?

THANK YOU for not disabling it in the Journals forum.

 

[mullaney]

The justification is in the link you provided, Ben. It's possible to do some pretty mischievious things when you allow html in posts.

I will look into adding codes. I think it's possible.

kevin-

so just to confirm--html code is active in the journals? i'm about to start one and image parameters would be really useful.

 

[mullaney]

Center codes are in effect.​

 

[benorbeen]

I would love it if you can somehow reinclude italics, bold, and underline tags. I miss a href tags too, but it's mostly the italics and bold I miss the most. I like those more than this darn vBulleshit.

Ditto ben. I'm just more used to typing html shit and then realize, OH CRAP IT DOESNT WORK...AFTER I pressed submit.

Then my dumbass spends about 10 minutes editing and reediting until I finally remember vbulliten code. Oh well. At least the journals are still html-ized.

How does one format a signature, such as Dan Telfer's?

Yay!! Nevermind.
