html coding not working on boards

Forum version : PHPBB2
Who this problem effects : Everyone.
Forum url : http://thecure.forumotion.com/t3-ruida-azzhai#9

The above URL takes you to the exact problem.

I have html enabled on the site, but for some reason the html coding wont work within the forums.
It was working a couple of days ago, but when I logged on yesterday it wasn't working all of a sudden; I've looked all around the site and I can't figure it out.

Please help.

Thank you in advance.

Have you checked to make sure that it was not changed in the AP? Also do you have it set in your profile?

Do you know the image's URL at the beginning of the code does not load an image?

I have it set in the AP.

I haven't altered the code in any way and it was working two days ago, but all of a sudden, it's not anymore. I haven't changed anything, I use this code everywhere, so I know it's not the code.

And I've checked all the requirements in the AP, HTML is enabled; it is also enabled in user profiles.

I tested it on my forum, and it worked, but the background image did not load.

Try resyncing your forum.

Admin panel --> General --> Forum --> Configuration --> Misc. Options --> Resynchronize your forum : (Check to resynchronize)

Sorry for the late reply, I tried to synchronize my forum but it did not work @Draxion

And @APE I know the code works , I am using it in other forums. It was working but all of a sudden is now not working on this forum now.

Hi,

That code is older than me
Anyway, click the edit post button and put the code you see in the editor here. Make sure the editor is not in WYSIWYG mode.

Code:

<table align="center" background="http://i63.tinypic.com/2aiq4uh.jpg" style="width: 510px; background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: bottom; color: #000000; border: solid #0c0703; border-width: 1px; padding: 15px 25px 120px 25px; background-color: #ffffff; text-align: justify; color: #7b5046 ; font-family: cambria; font-size: 12px; ; -moz-border-radius: 15px;"><tr><td>

[b]Name:[/b] Ruida Azzhai

[b]Weapons/Supplies: [/b]An intricately carved yew Long bow with an array of mixed wooden arrows fletched by her own hand.
A small bottle the size of a thumb nail tied around her neck with a piece of woven leather. The bottle contains the potent venom of the Marbled Cone Snail.
A small ruggedly shaped dagger with an intricately carved handle made from the wood of a yew tree.
A pair of slacks (pants).
A pair of leather sandals.
A loosely fitting tank shirt.
A medium leather pouch containing various herbs, bottles and utensils slung over the shoulder by a single strap.

[b]Abilities: [/b]
[i][b]Healing -[/b] [/i]The woman is a healer, she heals through the act of a Shaman, or "witch doctor". The act of which uses both plants and herbs and a concoction of potions to heal those that are in need; though some might say she has actual healing capabilities in the form of powers it is not confirmed by the woman herself; if it were so, she seems to prefer the answer through natural remedies than through the power of her being.


[b][i]Poisons Master -[/i] [/b]Through the use of plants and animals, venoms and poisons, she has claimed the self taught ability of toxicology.

[b][i]Hearing - [/i][/b]Rues most relied upon weapon is her hearing; as such it has adjusted to pick up the sounds surrounding her that contribute to a "vision" inside of her head.
She uses sound to see, for lack of a better word, in replacement for her eyes and with this added skill this female is in no need of help or sympathy. It is said that her hearing is more of a gift than any living mans sight.
The skill is complimentary to her abilities with a yew long bow and with it enables the accuracy to judge, with deadly sharp precision, distances and lengths of objects all around her for a direct hit regarding a moving target; a still target is another story, but patience is a virtue.

[i][b]Scent-[/b] [/i] With the loss of her eyes, as with her hearing, the sense of smell is heightened beyond that of a natural born person.

[b][i]Touch - [/i][/b]Touch and feeling are greatly honed in this particular female. She uses all of her surroundings to know where she is. From the texture of the ground beneath her feet she can determine whether she is on familiar ground or if the place is alien to her. It is for this very reason that Rue does not wear shoes.
The wind is a very important aspect of every day life as a large measure to gauge the weather and what is coming; for, on the wind brings many scents and feelings of damp or dry to any degree. It is with this that the damsel can predict rain before the clouds, snow before it falls and warm air hours before it is in your veins.

[b]Power: [/b]
It was heard along the grapevine of a residency upon the hill that was said to house the likes of a witch. The young maiden was believed to have the power of healing.
As she grew, so did her ability to heal the ill and the wounded of all ailments through the use of plants; but as her knowledge grew, so too grew the rumours.
Speculation resides in the talk of black magic used, some even go so far as to say she turns into the form of a fox.
Others say her father was a demon.
The Christians in the neighbouring village believe she was sent by God.
Either way, Ruida denies any magic is used in her practises.

[i][b]Shape Shifting: [/b][/i]Ruida takes on the form of a silver fox. Her fur takes on a black base coat with slate grey ticking all over, most prominent on the facial area which is dominated by deep amber eyes that hide well the fact that she is completely blind in both eyes.

[b]Diseases/ Other Weaknesses:[/b]
Rue was born completely blind; though you would not be able to tell by looking into those deep amber eyes. Sure, her eyes are of no use to her but what she lacks in vision she makes up for greatly with her other senses.

[b]Languages Spoken:[/b]
[i]Portuguese [/i]- Native tongue.
[i]English[/i] - badly.

[b]General:[/b]
[b]Weight-[/b]
55kg

[b]Age-[/b]
26

[b]Height- [/b]
151cm

[b]Scent- [/b]Musky and earthen.

[b]Voice-[/b] Bold but delicate. Very feminine with an air of dominance.

[b]Alignment-[/b] True neutral.

[b]Personality-[/b]
A lifetime of deceit has seen this female tried and tried again in her trust, it is for this reason she can come across as very arrogant. Many have tried to take for granted the fact that she is blind, but Rue is more cunning than cute and should anyone attest to try it, they would find themselves most bemused by the result.
How ever, underneath the solidly gaunt look is a heart as soft as the first new sprig of lavender ripe from the last days before spring; it is not a rare thing to behold, but it can be hard to come by.

[b]Human Appearance:[/b]
Her form is supported by a small, curved, muscular frame. She is of an athletic muscular stature with dirty mouse brown waist length hair that has been made into dreadlocks, golden amber eyes and dark skin.

HTML is not activated on the support forums.

Hello,

Try disabling html temporarily in the acp, saving and then re enabling it and hitting save.

Do the same with your profile settings.

Sometimes things get stuck serverside and doing this can sometimes resolve the issue.

The forum does had HTML enabled SL Gray, I did say that earlier in the thread....
I've disabled it, saved, resynched the forum and then turned it back on to have no effect, but when I put in Justices code, I noticed that the table gave the desired effect in a preview, but when I saved it, I only got the script once more.

So to conclude, it's not the table that is the problem, there is an issue between creation and saving.

To reiterate, HTML IS enabled. If there is someone that can help, like an admin, I'm willing to give a staff member my password to have a look through the site and see if it's an issue in my own HTML pages created.

In the topic you linked us to, the second post is correct. Also is it not the same as the first post?

@SLGray you are right, my apologies, I just cleared my cookies again and it is all fine. Thankyou for your help!!! <3

@justice™ thankyou so much for the updated table, i really appreciate it.

Sorry for this second post, i forgot to mark it as solved.
