SpywareDr--Many thanks. So I guess each forum can have its own coding rules.
You're welcome. And sure they can, but many use BB code (vB Code) instead of HTML because it's safer.
Many message boards include a FAQ with information on how to use their own variants of BBCode. In addition, some bulletin board systems allow administrators to define their own custom BBCodes. This is usually done by asking them to specify the BBCode markup (utilizing variables/wildcards to indicate the user-customizable parts of the code) and then indicating the XHTML replacement which will be substituted for the BBCode.
