I'm going to try it. There should be a paragraph following this.

Did it work? And if so, how did BMW's < br > work before. Does any of this depend on how the browser is configured?

Oh, Now I see, Size does matter!

Yup. I flunked. A little port and a bad IT that I decided not to finish. My apologies for indulging myself. Never tried to print the < and the > before. Hiccup. G'nite.

It doesn't work on a lot of BBS's. Just have to sneak one in when no one is looking and prepare for a flogging.

Credits to Slim for the HTML. The master of the domain was the first to try it that I know of.

I find it very annoying that this message board forces you to use code in your messages to create line and paragraph breaks.

Even cheapo shareware BBS software provides that automatically by just hitting the space bar on your keyboard. Why can't this board do that?

I suggested that they look into something a little more sophisticated like INFOPOP's Ultimate Bulleting Board software. It puts what they are currently using to shame and isn't that expensive to purchase. Never heard anything more about it.

Oh well...In a way it is kind of like riding on a time machine back to the year 1987 when you use this forum! LOL!

Also, the ability to EDIT you messages, which is something every message forum on the planet offers EXCEPT THIS ONE would also be a nice touch!!! ;o)

Come to think of it, you could edit messages back in 1987 on most BBS systems I used. LOL!

I dont use INFOPOOP. I must be a dumb ****.

where do you put the fancy symbols?

before or after the sentence?

Or on both sides?
