Some people will probably already know this but quite a few don't. If you want to include the source HTML code in a messageboard like this one which has HTML turned on then just use < for a <
and > for a >------------------

Hmmm.... that's not right. And when I try to make a change, the forum thinks I'm trying to hack the message. Crazy.

It's like that- the more I learn about HTML, the weirder it gets. Makes sense tho'; the more you learn, the more you experiment, the more the weirdness when something goes wrong.Lets try that again:
&<;img src="/images/s.gif" height="1" width="80"&>;
&<img src="/images/s.gif" height="1" width="80">;

Seven3 · Post by **Seven3** » Wed Nov 22, 2000 11:26 am

Nope.
I'll do this instead:
<a href="/images/large.gif"><img src="images/small.gif" alt="click to enlarge" width=200 hight=100 border=0></a>

It's &lt: for < and &gt: for > -using a semi-colon ( <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/wink.gif"> instead of a colon ( <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/smile.gif">. Oh, grow up. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/smile.gif">

Whoops. Shoulda' seen that happening. And I can't delete those last two posts because of the <HTML> tag in the topic. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/frown.gif">It meant to be:

Has anyone tried the UBB "CODE" tags?I will:<BLOCKQUOTE>code:<HR><pre>
<HTML><HEAD>
<TITLE>A test</TITLE>
</HEAD><BODY>
Did this work?
</BODY>
</HTML>
</pre><HR></BLOCKQUOTE>If this worked and you saw the HTML code, it's because the UBB "CODE" tags added HTML "PRE" tags to preserve formatting (see <A HREF="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/ubbcode.html" TARGET=_blank>http://www.keenspace.com/forums/ubbcode.html</A> )If it didn't work, I'm gonna go grab a sandwich and a beer.------------------

PRE tags don't prevent HTML tags from being interpreted. That's PLAINTEXT. PRE just means that spaces don't collapse into one, and returns actually break to the next line (normally you'd have to use   and BR tags). Witness the magic:<PRE>This
is
quite
cool
no?</PRE>------------------
