    I wasn't sure my code was going to work (picture html) so after I was done typing it, I was hoping for a preview function... alas there is none.

    Would you ever put one on here?

    i guess if there was, there'd be no need for an edit function, right?

    not true. you may want to edit the content later down the road.

    I liked the preview because it would let me see how things would turn out before I posted them, so I could get it right before it went live.

    there's nothing quite as exhilarating as live editing. apart from a shorn scrotum, i guess.

    anyway, it's a possibility, but slightly poncy,

    I echo Echoes' sentiments (see what I did there? did ya.... ah forget it).

    What do we want?

    PREVIEW!!!

    When do we want it?

    AS SOON AS TAKES CONSIDERING THE TIME TO CODE IT PROPERLY SINCE I DON"T NOW HOW!!!


    Besides, the edit function is for when I say something stupid while drunk, under the influence of REALLY good weed or type in all caps then realize it wasn't proper or was really annoying, which I can then edit myself the next day...

    or when you post something, it doesn't work as expected, and you want to change it to work as you previously expected*

    lol, we NEED the preview!!!

    Dont you just love developing new communities, sock/chris.

    PS. I feel weird calling you chris. Can you set up a function so I can change user names (for my viewing only) to what I want them to be? ie, you would be sock, and um... meska could be old-hasbeen! :D

    One more thing, why haven't the new smiles been coded into a quick function?

    Is code recyclable? Better yet, maybe you could insulate your walls with it. :)

    sorry c

    :embarrassedsmiley:

    i thought the live preview comment was constructive - the quote code in the post above is just what the quote button produces - not sure how best to remedy that even by previewing

    You neet to change the post method from <text> to <html>.

    Fixed. Even using preview shows you that.

    i had a look but it seems either my system or vanilla cleverness means i cant view the source to see if the option is there in the code but hidden by ie/pc wierdness

    i suspect the latter

    anyway - time to move on

    make sure it is enabled in your account prefs.

    ~is dumb

    it was turned off - didnt even know it was an option but i guess i must have selected it sometime or other

    if its possible to not have the option visible would it possible to also set a default of text/html in the prefs? seeing as html quoting is a standard feature of the board it might be handy

    i'll stop making suggestions as it seems half of the ones i have made so far are dumb mistakes on my part :D

    ~turns at the wrong moment and gets a fist in the face

    at least i assume that wasn't intentional ... chris?
