I've upgraded my snitz forum from 3.1SR4 to 3.4.04.
I found that all replise with quotes , their code has been changed after upgrade. like this:
<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote><font size=1 face="Arial" id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>
Here is the quoted text.
<hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote></font id=quote><font face="Arial" size=2 id=quote>
How can I replace all thousands of posts , to normal, simple quote codes ? |

No. The display was abnormal. That's why I found the content was changed.
Normally, the quoted words ars smaller, but in this case, all words (both reply & quoted words) are small size.
If I manually edit the content and replace with normal "quote" pairs, the display will become normal (reply words larger, quoted words smaller).
And I edit them after the replacement, the content is normal. |

I have made two testing posts above.
I have many old posts in my forum with normal quote codes like test no.2 .
But all old contents were changed to abnormal codes like test no.1
Their contents ( stored ) were obviously different , I mean the "quote code" part.
And in my forum, the test no.1 shows different than here. I see all codes here, but in my forum, the abnormal codes shows like test no.2, just the string "Just make a test !" will be small size.

If you see the source generated for this topic, you will see that blockquote is generated as well for the message being shown correctly.
When you post a message, that message goes through the chkString function, that changes [quote] into <blockquote> tags. When you display a message, blockquote tags are shown without change. The blockquotes are changed back into [quote] when you edit the message. So I do not understand why that is happening in your forum. |

when I use edit with old posts, I see a lot of <blockquote> tags in message body. rather than normal [quote] tags.
This happens only in old posts. New posts works correctly.
That's why I guess some transformation was made to my old database during the upgrade process.
I want to find a way to replace all wrong <blockquote> tags in my database(SQL7.0), but can not find any easy way to replace them. That's main problem for me now. |

I look into my dataabse & inc_func_posting.asp, seems some of my old posts contains blockquote tags not listed in the section:
'## left for compatibility with older versions of the forum
of inc_func_posting.asp
So, the display was abnormal, using edit will see blockquote tags without transform.
But My forum start with snitz3.1sr4, then upgrade to 3.4.04 directly, why there's abnormal tags stored ?

My whole point is that the tags are not abnormal. I have them in my own DB. That's the way quotes are stored. I just don't know why your code does not display them. And my forum was initially 3.1 SR4, then upgraded it to 3.3. an now to 3.4.
I don't know what else to say without looking at your DB. If you want me to do that, let me know. |

Thanks for your help.
At first I don't know the actual content stored in my db, after looking into my db, I know the stored content are blockquote...... tags.
and I look into snitz 3.4.04's "inc_func_posting.asp" , I found that there's some program lines to deal with several kinds of old versions' blockquote.... tags .
but i compare them, there are a little difference with my db's, so the change process in "inc_func_posting.asp" was failed to work. And I got abnormal display in posts.
Now I added my old db's blockquote tags string into snitz's chage process condition, solved my problem now.
Thanks again for your patience for my ignorant and poor english.... |

| No need to thank me, cause all I did was telling you that the problem you had wasn't really a problem (which made me feel a bit weird about it anyway ). I do not understand why the tags weren't properly processed by the Snitz code, but I'm glad you managed to change the code to make everything ok properly again . |
