[SOLVED] Code tags in posts

[clive littlewood]

Hi All

I think a simple one, but i cannot get it.

How do i use code tags in posts ??

I have used the hash button in the message menu but all i get is the word code in brackets.

Thanks for any reply

That is what the Code tags are - The words CODE and /CODE enclosed in Square Brackets.

You enclose your code sample in between the Closing bracket of the CODE tag and the opening brack of the /CODE tag.

Like this.

Or highlight the text with your mouse and press the hash/pound button in the toolbar above.

sudo nano /etc/passwd

may i suggest the extension bbcode for firefox - that way u type out ur text - select it - right-click and and select code and ur all done.

it also makes it easier to change the colors, etc... of the text.
