And on that subject, here's yet another little bit of PHP code which checks all tags for whether they have unmatched quotes of any kind in them.

Please test it if you have a moment.

I did some quick tests. It seems to work well enough, in that no board-breaking links will be posted. Nice work!

Thank you. That was a lot easier than the other one. There are either an odd number of quotes or there aren't...

ita knows where she can find me if she wants to fold these functions into the board.

I hope I'm in the right thread with this question- and it's probably not worth asking, but I feel I want to check.

When it says 'you may use HTML or quick-edit formatting' that means you can use them both, right? In the same post? ie. if you've started with one, say used HTML to include a link, you can later in the same post use quick-edit to create bold text?

Am-Chau: yes, you can use both!

Thank you- I thought probably so, but I'm terrified of using them wrong! Newbie fear.

Well it is wise to be cautious with HTML in this forum, otherwise you're likely to have stompy feet descending on you and editing you, and what's worse, telling everyone that they've fixed the five thousand unclosed tags in your post. t grin

It seems wise to be cautious with HTML everywhere, especially when you have a tendanacy to type the way I ride a bicycle (I fall off within two seconds. Every time). But especially here.

And on that subject, here's yet another little bit of PHP code which checks all tags for whether they have unmatched quotes of any kind in them.

Can URLs have apostrophes in them? Because t a href="http://www.it'satest.com" it's a test t /a creates problems, but I'm not sure if that's something that'll come up in any actual situation. (Forgive me if this has been addressed already. I've been skipping and skimming.)

I've never met a URL with an apostrophe in it, and I'm pretty sure tha'ts because you're not allowed to use them.
