Quite often we have to go onto other sites where HTML codes have to be inputted manually
and a lot of us don't know the basics(or make a mess )
Can you put any queries in this Topic thanks
To Kick off I was doing an edit on a post and I added on the end of the "new" sentence "edit" and put in front of it the "<" character(as a pointer) .But when it was displayed this "word" had vanished No[/edit] used
Showed up on the Edit page though
Any idea why this happened and is there a use for this?

Err, I don't get what your question actually is...

Well, now that I've thought about it more.. are you saying that:

<something like this> was being parsed, and wouldn't show up in the page?

You need to use gt; and lt; character codes if you want it to show up literally, and not interpreted.

I hope this is what you were looking for..

Thanks for that,Not my field,we dabble with it for fun every now and then on the other site (Discussionpool)
