ok ok, sorry It seems that always I've used the [*] tag I was reading the forums at home with IE (well, avant), but today with Netscape 7 at the Uni I saw that a post I'd just made was as the right image of

where you don't see, before bla2, the "big point" that is before bla3.

it's that.

, sorry for such a thread

It's not a bug in Firefox, <li>s are not supposed to be used alone, they must be enclosed between <ul> or <ol>s.

The BB should just not parse them

or replace them just for the [*] character

The user should just not post them outside of list tags.

As long as there's no security holes or major bugs, I don't care about it... I don't think the board software should "take responsibility" for a poster's problem.

The current parser is quite simple (and therefore quite fast)... in most cases, it parses the entire body of the message, and so the [li] tags are replaced the same way everywhere in the message. I hate making the whole thing more complex just to prevent one little glitch that's the user's fault.

End rant.

if you write

code:

---

[*]bla

---

mybb changes that by

code:

---

<li>bla

---

and that in some browsers (outside the <ul> and <ol> tags (ie: [list], [list=1] and [list=a] mybb tags)) isn't displayed with the " · "
