Ted - seems to be loosing the formatting on an edit.

If you do a bold and then edit it, the text that comes back is < b >bold< /b > (whithout la spaces), and these get stripped.

I presume you are trying to stop people putting HTML into the code but it seems to be stripping out the "legal" stuff.

Oppss - just found that - silly me. Too tired.

Thank you kindly. I've resorted to using a text editor to manually change 's into ]'s when I'm editing stuff.

Byeeee!

Right, bold/italic formatting should be preserved now.

I've added extra codes too. See here

TED - Now if you quote more than one person it doesn't do the extra box thing so it looks confusing as to who the last poster was and the new one.


I f you get what I mean?
