vB Code Help

[revision3fan]

I'm having trouble putting 2 or more tags around text.

Could you also link or post to the documentation for the vB Code language?

Firstup ...

List of BBCode Tags (http://revision3.com/forums/misc.php?do=bbcode) available to you.

Second up, how are you trying to do the tags?
They need to be nested, and "closed".

Replace the <> with [] ...

<b><i>Bold italic example</i></b> Good
<b><i>Bold italic example</b></i> Poor -tags should be nested, with tags wrapping other tags. It works in this example, but might fail in others. Start with good habits.
<b><i>Bold italic example<i><b> Bad - trailing tags need a / to close them

Care to post an example of what you were trying to do?

Thanks for the help. My problem might have been the nesting. My sentences would display the vB code of the innermost tags.

The vB code information page on Revision3's site that you linked to didn't mention nesting of tags so thanks again.


Do you know what vB code is in relation to BB code?
