I need to know the symbol used for a line break in forum code? Like a space is n`bsp; and stays invisable in forum code. What is the actual symbol or code to get the same effect but with a line break?

I'm working on something and <BR>
<BR /> [BR /] is not translated but n`bsp; is. So I was wondering what the forum understands as being a line break?

you can use [br], it will be converted to <br /> by the forum.

Wow that was fast. I just noticed that that it worked when I posted. I must have had something next to it like that comma.

Thanks for the speedy reply,

Another question...

What do the numbers at the end of fstring do?
fString = replace(fString, "[b r]", "<br />", 1, -1, 1)

explanation of the replace function:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/script56/html/vsfctreplace.asp

the first 1 means to start at the 1st position

the -1 means to replace all instances that it finds

the last 1 means to do a textual compare (which means the case will be ignored)

Ok thank you. Not the problem I'm having but mabe I can explain a little better.

I need the symbol that will perform the same funtion as the [b r] but will remain invisable if going back to edit a post. Just like &n bsp will for a space command. It may sound crazy but I've been working on something (I added entry boxes that will post to the message box) and the only problem I having is the br symbol. I don't want the br's to appear if a user goes back to edit the post.

So my question is what command will give the same effect as the enter key to perform a line break but will always remain invisabe if going back to edit a post like &nb sp does.

a newline

like the one above

in a message box it is vbNewline, but then is converted to a br to display in html.
