Posting in HTML

[Zandalf]

I don't know HTML, but I do know that if you write something in microsoft word, and then view the source code in HTML, and then copy that into a web document, it should come out looking fairly spiffy, right?

 

 

 

At least I used to be able to do that.

 

 

 

I just tried posting on this forum by copying source code from a word document, and it didn't work. It came out with all the tags and everything still there.

 

 

 

Any tips?

 

 

 

UPDATE:I am an idiot. This forum uses BBCode, with which I am unfamiliar. I will research this and figure it out.

 

 

 

UPDATE: Figured it out. Thanks :wink:

YOu can't post HTML code as this could pose a security risk.
