I don’t like the non-edit of a comment that you posted. Also don’t like not being able to use the HTML tags.

Mike - ‘non-edit’? I get an ‘edit’ button on mine.

43

You can also use html

44

i tried html tags…didn’t work…

I do see the edit button now…I wasn’t looking in the right place.

45

Change your [ ] brackets to < > brackets

That <> brackets are apparently the normal html thing - the old brackets ([]) were apparently specific to that platform or something.

46

test

Yup that works.

47

They were (specific).

Apparently they’ve integrated WYSIWYG formatting, but I can’t seem to make it work. In theory, I should be qable to hit Ctrl-B and turn on BOLD, but it only brings up the bookmarks thing.

I put a bunch of info on tags in one thread…but can I find that for you now?? Nope.

48

I hope I wasn’t unclear in the other thread, but the WYSIWYG editing is not enabled yet. It will be very soon, but after the weekend.

Here’s Chase’s helpful tag info: http://community.cartalk.com/discussion/comment/2872533#Comment_2872533

(Thanks for doing that, btw.)

Thanks! You rock. Thread here :slight_smile:

FWIW I’ve been doing IT as a profession now since 1986, and have some experience with web sites. Don’t want to step on anyone’s toes, so let me know if I do. Only trying to be helpful where I can.
