FAQ problem...

If you put two spaces in front of a D it will do it. The "No Smilies" thing doesn't seem to do anything for me. I have it checked for this message.<br>:)<br>  D<br>D D  D   D<br><br>Dan East<br>  Dan East

I think it's just ranDom because I wan't using 2 spaces in front of mine.  AnD it Doesn't look like Dan useD one at the enD of his post .. it only looks like one. <br><br>:)

[Jaybot]

[Dan East]

Actually there's two spaces before my name, it's just that the second space and the D were translated into the smiley.<br><br>D     0<br> D    1<br>  D   2<br>   D  3<br>    D 4<br><br>Dan East<br><br>

Hey, nice 999!<br>I knew I wasn't the only one who still appreciates good ol' ASCII art. of course, you put mine to shame...

[Jaybot]

Took you a long time to do that, 999, didn't it?

[999]

Hey Moose:<br><br>No, I used photoshop and a plugin. It's really quite simple~<br><br>

[Jaybot]

LOL!

The reason the ASCII art is going wonky is because the standard font on the board is variable width. ASCII art needs a fixed width font like the one used in the reply boxes. And there's an insanely simple fix:<br>Just put the art between [ pre ] [ /pre ] tags. (Minus the spaces between the square brackets.)<br>Like this:<br>[pre]+----+<br>|    |<br>| (: |<br>|    |<br>+----+[/pre]Anyway, any other suggestions for fixing the FAQ?Last modification: SonicSilicon - 04/12/01 at 07:45:46
