Escaping Quotes

[visualAd]

It appears the forum software has gone a little overkill on escaping meta characters:

Same thing is going on with code samples: there will be a back slash for every single quote.

I just realize that it's not happening with the code only - it's everywhere and apparently affects only those posts that have code or links included.

Its been brought to the admins Attention and as far as i am aware they are working on a fix

[RhinoBull]

I wasn't aware of that. Thanks.

I've posted a general announcement about weirdnesses that may occur over the next day or so as some things are tweaked in the PHP code of the site.

Brad!

This should now be fixed. The VBCode tag should be working. If nobody sees problems with it, then I'll hook it into the editor controls. (Please note, I will update the specific list of terms once we confirm the tag is working fully).

Brad!

It looks OK to me.

Well since this was a bit harder then it first looked like, I guess there is no hope for a C++ tag now?

Heidi actually was the person that managed to get the VBCode to work. I've asked that the process be documented so we can add this to other forum sites as well as add other languages. As such, C++ may be added at some future date. There are, however, other things to turn on or add before C++ code coloring .

Thanks a lot, and thanks to Heidi (again!!). If you/she need any help with finding keywords or anything else, just say hello, and I'll be there. Also looking forward to the other things you are going to turn on.


Thanks

.... help with finding keywords or anything else, just say hello, and I'll be there.

We had a list on this forum at one point.... I'll end up looking for an updated list. If anyone has one handy, post it or send it my way and I'll use it to compare. You'll save me a couple of minutes when I update the list .

Well I guess this is a start:

__forceinline
#define
#else
#endif
#ifdef
#ifndef
#include
#undef
bool
break
case
char
class
const
delete
double
else
enum
explicit
extern
false
float
for
goto
inline
int
namespace
new
operator
private
public
return
sizeof
static
struct
switch
template
true
union
void
while
using


in alphabetical order. Not sure if "this" also should be added, and how big letter for things as BOOL and VOID should be handled tho'. And quotes with both /* */ and // is importent, and maybe strings, numbers and consts could be colored..
