    ...cos you alwys get a smiley if you type something like this:

    Code:
    Anything = Val( 0& )
    'Without spaces
    Anything = Val(0&)

    Under the Email Notification box, there is a check box called Disable Smilies in This Post. Check this box to disable them.

    Well generally when you are posting code or giving advice or help, you wouldn't use smilies.

    Usually when you're posting code, you tend to be more serious. I see smilies used in the chit chat forum more often.

    I think that the programming section tends to be more serious.

    Serious or not, I think this is a problem, I agree with Fox, I use smilies in some of my posts in the Q/A section and I don't want to turn of the Smiley code everytime i post code. Also you don't need to be dead serious even if you help someone

    I'll try and sort something out about this, but for now, you should just turn off smilies for posts with this problem.

    It occurs becuase the & is converted to the HTML & . When the sequence &amp occurs, the is converted to a smilie.
