I just found this post unposted on my hard drive. It's slightly old, but--
I believe this is a part of the official HTML spec - the tag is supposed to clear out any open tags that preceed it.
Really! Dude.
Nobody tells me anything!
Errr.... no. That's a part of the quickedit definition. How else would the quickedit end itself?
Sorry. When I was on TT, and for half of my stint on WX, I used Netscape, and when Netscape copies text from a page it leaves in hard returns and lots of funky spaces. IE strips them, 'cause it's cool that way. But if I wanted to quote someone else's post, I would copy and paste it into my posting box, and it would look like
I don't think we want to be doing things
that purposely violate the HTML standards.
, like that.
I'd put a > in front of it, and the > would carry through the "doing things" to the "that purposely". If there were *two* hard returns, that's when it'd stop.
That's all.
Oh. Uh. Cereal:
In the bright and shiny future, would it be possible to label your bookmarks somehow? That was an option at TT; and I'm using it as my personal Nillying system for remembering where really interesting discussions start; and it would be all neat to be able to find
start of body image discussion in Bitches
instead of

It's already been requested.
Neat. Thanks. I didn't remember.
I just hit post in the buffy thread. It somehow took me to Maggie B's profile. I would think I accidently clicked on Maggie B's name, but she didn't have a post on that page. It also ate my post.

Do we allow the blockquote tag?
Let's find out
No we do not! Can we add that in? I know that the > quickedit handles it, but if I want to have a "second-level" blockquote (i.e. a double indentation), I'm stuck.
(If we do add that, can we add
t tt
and
t small
?)
I'll second the request for blockquote. It's handy.
I just think it's rather odd (they sit) that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby
Giles, 'Some Assembly Required'
I just got this quote. Is the "they sit" a misplaced stage direction?
