...recently it has come to my attention that i'm missing a great deal of information - that being the TBS forum tags. i was merely wondering wether any of you guys could tell me how to implement a line break (the general <br> html tag) seeing as neither [br], [/br] or [br][/br] work. any help on this rather perplexing matter would be really appreciated.

i would use a code tag

inside a code tag no forma
t
     i
n
    g
occurs ---\
          |
          \_____ but remember it uses a fixed width font, and the editing form doesn't, so you might want to copy paste it from notepad

that's not exactly what i wanted to try. i wanted to incorpoate it into the footer/signature. tbs (for some reason) filters out the "unnecessary" breaks you enter manually. i just wanted to put everything neatly on one line. thanks for the suggestion anyway. i can see it'll work in other areas...

Hi,

as far as I know,


hitting the return key a few times creates new lines.

Cu, Erik

yes, master erik, sir. the problem lay in that the moment you update your forum signatures the web app deletes a few of the "returns". now if i could only add something like [br][br]my signature, that would eliminate the issue, no? thanks for the post though.

try:

[p]First line[/p][p]Second line[/p]

yep, that works. thank you phas.

/me is sceptic

yes, it works, see?

Hi,That's a problem with the textarea displaying the signature.

If you start your signature with returns and then update the profile it gets correctly stored for your account. So entering two returns gives two empty lines before your signature.
The only problem is that the textarea on the MyAccount page does not display these newlines correctly. If you look at the source of the page you can count the correct number of newlines.

At the moment I don't know how to let it show the correct number of newlines. A <br /> does not work inside textarea.

Cu, Erik
