I’m just wondering what happens if you enclose non–tags with square brackets, Par example: [elephant] [q] [/q] How about repeated tags? <strong>[b][b]hello?</strong>[/b][/b] What about unclosed or unopened tags? [/b][/i][/u]–These should print [b]if there is a a bold tag at the start of this sentence then unclosed tags are not handled. Well, it seems to have fixed some problems…

How about repeated tags?
[b][b]hello?[/b][/b]

[/b][/i][/u]–These should print

[b]if there is a a bold tag at the start of this sentence then unclosed tags are not handled.

The thing is, I think I’ve messed something else up in the process, but I’m not sure what. You see, I had a line of code that specifically told it not to translate a newline after an HTML tag. Since the BBCode is parsed prior to this translation taking place, newlines were being discarded. But I must have put that line in for a good reason! We’ll see, I guess, when I’ve got the Archive working and can actually view previous entries with ease. I fixed the problem with the BBCode and <br />s.

Good to know that it works, though! Well, almost, since it appears that the BBCode has stuffed up the code that adds the line breaks. The specs of the machine will change, since I won?t have the necessary cash until sometime in mid-February. Who knows what developments will be made before then. <strong>EDIT:</strong> I’ve just noticed another bug: when you edit a comment, it changes the apostrophe characters into question marks. Nasty.
