BBcode first only

Post by .Hymn on March 9th 2009, 9:56 pm

When using BBcode, if I press the button for any code (at least the ones that I've tried, which is most of them) it only shows the first part (as in, the
Code:
[b]
instead of the
Code:
[b][/b]
. I've noticed it happens on this forum too. I can use alt+whatever but that's annoying to have to do over and over again.
Pressing the button twice gives you both parts, but again, it'd be tedious to do that for each one and find your way to the middle.
If this has been answered before, feel free to point me there instead of typing it out yourself. I couldn't find it though.

This happens so you can select the open tag then type your message, press it again and it closes the tag after you have completed what you were typing

So

First Click => Opens Tag
Second Click => Closes Tag

Hey, that's handy.

Cool, thanks Craig.
Hold on...When you click it though, it puts you before it.
Like if I clicked Bold, it would put me right before the [b].

well ok say i was typing something and then pressed [b] for bold it should then put that as the next item, or directly after your text, The [B] should now remain red until you press it again after you enter your text and should then appears as a closed bracket like [/b]

sooooo type, press [B], type some more and press [B] again and it should work

Hope i explained that a lil better lol Smile

Regards
