Any chance of music being enabled on the boards? I tried doing it using HTML but it doesn't seem to be active on these boards, whereas it was on the old ones.

Not a huge issue, but in certain key events and posts in some of my threads I like to add that little extra sometimes...

Hmm, I forgot to add the tag in the allowed html code list.

So far the following tags are allowed:
<tt>b, i, u, pre, center, table, tr, td, marquee, A HREF, IMG SRC, font, tt, EMBED SRC</tt>

If there is another tag you would like to be able to use on the board, just give tell me.

I know what some of those tags do (b, i, u, center, marquee) but what do the others do?

I will recap all the tags (just for those who don't know)


<b> = bold

<i> = italic

<u> = underline

<center> = align the text at the center

<marquee> = make the text scrolls on the screen

<A HREF="http://www.server.com">link</a> = make a link to something else, the </a> closes the link

<IMG SRC="http://ww.server.com/image.jpg"> = display an image

<font> = change various properties about the font used. </font> return to the previous font state.
<font size=1> change the size to 1 (1 is small, 2-3 is normal, 4 is bigger, 6 is rather large)
<font color=RRGGBB> change the color, where RR, GG, BB is a number from 0 to 256 for red, green and blue respectively in hexadecimal (0 to 256 translate as 00 to FF).
<font color=red> is another way to change the color but it's less precise.

<tt> = Type writer text. It's a font that look like Courrier New where the "i" take as much space as the "w" (ie not condensed)

<EMBED SRC="http://www.server.com/music.mid"> = play music (midi, wav, MP3, you-name-it). Some extensions need plug-in to be played however.

<pre> = Preformatted text. In html, a space is only counted once so if you type "hello<space bar><space bar><space bar>Tempest" it will be displayed as "Hello Tempest". Take note of the absence of the three spaces between the Hello and my name... <pre> fix that. It's not a tag highly relevant to a board, but quite useful for maintaining nesting indentations.

<table> = tell that the following is part of a table
<tr> = denote a new row into the table
<td> = denote a new column into the table
A table must contain all three tags (ie. a table is at least made of one row and one column).
A table with two columns and two rows table would looks like this:
<table>
<tr>
<td>text/image/etc on line 1 column 1</td>
<td>text/image/etc on line 1 column 2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>text/image/etc on line 2 column 1</td>
<td>text/image/etc on line 2 column 2</td>
</tr>
</table>
