Colour the words

by skorpy June 6th 2007, 11:28 am

This is doing my head in.
I cant write out a decent post without it looking a mess.
And when I try and put it back too normal its hard work.

All I get is [colour=Red] blah blah[/colour] But the words are in black,yet it says Red because thats the colour you wanted it but still in black.

this has been going on for a long time..when will it be sorted out?

there are two different versions for "colour", theres the American one "color" and that's what the forums use. so try [color] instead of [colour] and see what happens.

hun

.I dont actually type it in.I was just explaining what happens even though it says a colour

You have to write COLOR instead of COLOUR and the button you use seems to be faulty, so you must type it yourself. I used hand-written COLOR tags for this.

hey..i understand u skorpy.. she means the codes that pop up if u tried to change a color via the tools above!

Try disactivateing all editors Skorpy

Featherlord: I dont understand I tried all ways, I haven't succeed in geting a [colour] tag

by Featherlord June 6th 2007, 3:36 pm

Skorpy says she uses the button and also states that she gets [colour] in her first post, so I came to the conclusion that the button she uses must produce [colour] tags, which do not work so her button is faulty ;-) I didn't say the button on here was.

I know, but I assume all buttons in all forums do the same thihg

And for me pressing the Colour the words Color

means activating it

ok,it happened in here the other day when typing something out..I just found the thread and copy pasted it.This is what it looked like after I highlighted the words I typed and clicked the A button above to change the colour

now it is

"Sorry, but only can read topics in this forum."

So it has changed by itself...

hello,

did you try to switch the editor first befaure you paste the texte? because not doing it can in certain case reveal the code, especially if the text is colored…
