Thread: lay-out

    Okay, I have a question, which doesn't really belong here, but on the other hand it does.

    How come whenever I try to post something, I can't seem to use any indentations? If I use spaces, they will disappear when I look at the post in a preview, and I can't use tab either, or it will jump to the next field.

    Any idea anyone?

    Limitations in HTML. If you use spaces inside of a [ CODE ] tag, it will show up but if you just type it in, it is displayed as HTML and HTML ignores whitespace including tabs.

    You can't tab inside of the edit window because by default it will exit the edit window and move focus to the next control.

    They are most likely pasting code directly from an IDE such as Interdev or VB. If you cut and paste a TAB, it will accept it, it's the TAB key that is used to navigate.
