No objections, I'm no fan of HTML support in topics anyhow. Though I agree that that changes Huw suggested should solve a great deal.
It is a matter of either fixing it quickly, but loosing some functionality (HTML + Forum Code) or trying to get it to work right and knowing it is going to haunt us for a few more version because we're probablyy going to make mistakes trying implementing it.

yea... I guess your right... our editor is something that people like to use this product for...
however, with some minimal work... we could set the editor to drop in literal HTML tags when forum code is turned off... that way they could have HTML turned on... Forum code turned off... and not lose any functionality.
course... in that scenario... the message window looks horid from all the code...
sounds like we realy need to do it right.

Plese keep the ability to use HTML in there...
I agree we don't need both forum code and HTML. It should be forum code or HTML.
The editor should create HTML if HTML is chosen and forum code if forum code is chosen.

The bigest issue I see is that if the Admin switches from HTML to FORUM code all their HTML will be busted... course it would work fine going the other way.

after sleeping on this one too... I agree more and more with leif. If an admin is going to do HTML... the buttons should reflect that... so Forum Code is not used at all...
I guess this would mean writing a new function that handles HTML code submittals (or just bypassing them all together) and then do a set of if then statements to say when HTML is on... Forum Code is off... vice versa.
Shouldn't be to hard... volunteers?

Sorry, thought I would bump this topic.
Seems this is something that would need to be implemented into the source code more sooner than later. A lot of forum admins are tending to use html more and more. And I agree that if HTML is on then Forum Code should be off...and vice versa.

Would just not allowing both HTML and ForumCode to be enabled at the same time be sufficient?
if so, adding this to admin_config_features.asp (around line #64) should take care of that:
if Request.Form("strAllowHTML") = "1" and Request.Form("strAllowForumCode") = "1" then
Err_Msg = Err_Msg & "<li>HTML and ForumCode cannot both be On at the same time</li>"
end if
Fixed in v3.4 |

Yeah, that was my thought on it.
I was thinking that we could automatically turn off Forum Code if the admin switches on the HTML option, but then they might wonder how come Forum Code is being turned off when they didn't turn it off.
Your modification works for me.
