    Default The vB Code page

    I was looking at it earlier, trying to figure out how to do something, but I couldn't find it. You know when some people write something that has a line through it, as if it was crossed out? I tried to figure out how to do it, and looked through the Code page as linked on the left, but I wasn't able to find it. Is it located somewhere else that I wasn't thinking about?

    it's not vB code. You have to use HTML. it's like the bold tag but use the letter s and put < and > around it

    Yeah, most MB software uses their code in brackets like this: []. HTML tags are formed with <>.

    I use HTML for everything. It is far superior.

    I'll add a vbCode strike tag.

    [strike]test[/strike]

    that's [ strike]test[ /strike], minus the spaces.

    Why not just use [s]? is so much smaller, I never used in my life. =o

    <s>blah</s> = blah

    It's not difficult... now the question is, how do I get the tags to show up without automatically being processed into the result? *taps his nose slyly*

    < [ i ] [ / i ] s > =

    =P It works the other way around, too.

    [ < i > < / i > i ] = [i]

    Much easier than having to remember the HTML code for the brackets, imho.

    Alright, I'll add [s] as an alias to [strike]
