Code tags formatting by KeyStorm on 06-22-2004 at 03:14 PM
Although [code]- tags should show code with a monospaced font. But it doesn't. There is tecnhically no difference with the content format of simple [quote]- tags.
I would swear that it worked before the template-update.
Fix it please, since coders will be pleased to have this feature back.

Good point, although there is still a difference in the functionality of the quote tag and the code tag:
[edit] Okay, what happened to smileys/mycode not being parsed in [code'] tags? Did that go with RC1/2?

quote:yes, the [code] tag puts "code:" and que [quote] tags puts "quote:"

edit: and the [code] tag doesn't accept the [quote=name] syntax
quote:you can now use the [noparse] and [/noparse] tags

Btw, will you ever create the raw post code quoter window?

Ahm... I have seen it not monospaced lately. And Lobster did also test it before editing, and it showed standard font and smileys.
RE: Code tags formatting by KeyStorm on 06-30-2004 at 06:11 PM
code:
<font face="verdana,tahoma,arial,helvetica" size="1">code/font></font><hr color="#000000" size="1"><span style="font-family: 'courier new',monospace;"><font face="verdana,tahoma,arial,helvetica" size="2">blah</font></span><hr color="#000000" size="1"></blockquote><font face="verdana,tahoma,arial,helvetica" size="2">
And see? still formatted

Unless some dodgy thing happened in the past 40 minutes, we're not seeing the same thing.
RE: Code tags formatting by KeyStorm on 06-30-2004 at 09:01 PM
It obviously depends on the browser, due to the dodgy code. It adds a font to the coded field.l Now I wonder why it doesn't happen sometimes.
RE: Code tags formatting by WDZ on 06-30-2004 at 11:02 PM
I just looked at the source of that thread, and there is NOT a <font> tag, so why did you post that HTML, KeyStorm?
RE: Code tags formatting by KeyStorm on 07-01-2004 at 12:23 PM
Hm... weird.
If I use the "View Selection source" in Firefox the font tag shows up, but viewing the complete source it's not there.
But I still wonder why is it verdana.
And the most weird thing: why did it show up right in your post above, WDZ...
RE: Code tags formatting by CookieRevised on 07-22-2004 at 08:02 PM
quote:Known "glitch" (some call it a feature though, but I don't like it either).... It will add the last known normal html font tag, and in this case that is verdana...

(it was set just before the "code:" text, look at the source again
) Anyways, the "selective source"-feature is a bit buggy and shouldn't be fully trusted to be correct...quote:Indeed, there is something very weird going on....

To show that KeyStorm isn't going mental:
These are taken in this same thread.
WDZ's test IS monospaced, KeyStorm's not....
Whenever I try to duplicate it by creating a new post, It will always end up non-monospaced. Also, all other "code tag"-uses on the forum are all non-monospaced when I view them (with Mozilla based browser)..... Like KeyStorm, I can remember that it once was monospaced (but I can't remember when this has changed to non-monospace, but I'm almost certain it was even before the new skin-update)
