inconsistant tables

robwatts2 · 09-07-2002, 05:30 AM

Hello

I notice when i read some threads that the table widths are massive, i.e the page scrolls from left to right, which is a P in the A.

This message does it.

Anyone know why?

Im using ie6 windoze 98 1024 768

that happens due to use of PRE html tag, when showing code, or quoting someone. and hence the text doesn't go to new line unless it is done so forcefully.

ok jay, thanks for that info.

bit of a shame that it does that though

couldnt the board code make an adjustment for this?

Yeah, right you are.
Since there is some parsing inside [ php ] [ / php ] tags anyway, why not to insert some line-breaking code in it? It would be a pleasure (it's much worse with 800x600 on my screen).

Hi,

first of all: the php formatting is a great feature which I appreciate a lot.

(Edit: sorry, did not read the previous posts carefully enough and wrote some rubbish.)

Something else I noticed: In a few threads it was reported that within php formatted text backslashes seem to get dropped, which led to some confusion. Maybe someone could look into this sometimes?
