    Im not sure how easy it would be to modify the code but:
    When someone tries to make a little ascii drawing such as:
    +------+
    | Form |
    | |
    +------+

    Which actually looks like a box with the word form in it, it is condensed, as you see above. Can that be changed? Its probably that way to prevent someone from putting 10000 spaces at the end of the post but still, is it possible?

    Re: spaces

    Actually, that's standard HTML behaviour. Try this, the [ code ] tag:

    Code:
    +------+
    | Form |
    |      |
    +------+

    If you are able to modify the source code, I suggest you change it, maybe...
    I made a forum and it uses a bunch of Replace functions in ASP to convert the code:

    eg.
    VB Code:
    1. Code = Replace(Oldcode, "   ", "   ")
    2. Code = Replace(Code, "  ", "  ")
    3. Code = Replace(Code, ":)", "<IMG SRC=smile.gif>"

    etc.
    All contents of the above post that aren't somebody elses are mine, not the property of some media corporation.
    (Just a heads-up)

    John wrote a large part of vB if I'm not totally mistaken so I expect he has access to the source Anyway, I thought that's what he did as well
