Is there a WORKING version of [code]?
You just used it right now. You can now use the [noparse] command to show [img] tags and such without having to "trick" the system into displaying them by inserting code within the code, like [img]. Other programming language might be a bit different though.
I suppose you could just nest it like [code][noparse] Content here [ /noparse][/code] and see what happens. I don't know about how the alignment would work though. Good luck!

I suppose you could jsut nest it like [code][noparse]/noparse][/code] and see what happens. |
Once upon a time, [code] used to force all symbols to be given equal spacing, so that smaller ones simply had more room around them, like you'd see in pure plain text. That does not appear to be an option any more, and I can't seem to find a font that does that.

Yes, but that still reformats the text, and I can't stop it. For instance, the horizontal size of a dash - is a low smaller than the horizontal size of, say, a capital W. So if I had a row of ten - and a row of ten W, then the row of W would be nearly twice as long. That's a big problem when trying to make a presentable table, because it prevents me from making straight columns.

He's wanting a monospace font, as well as the text to be wrapped in a <pre> tags so that extra space characters aren't ignored (although turning them into the html space & character would work)

Oh snap, I didn't even realize there was an option for changing the font!

Courier is the default monospace font just about everywhere. A combination of [font=courier] and [code] should do what you're looking for,
just like so.
Also a LOT of the old code still works, you just have to capitalize it now.
Capital I and capital B in place of the lowercase versions we used to use.
I only have the vaguest idea about the rest of the code you're discussing, just thought I'd mention this.

so you'd have [ I] instead of [ i] for italics. |
Also, the forum automatically made your code lowercase because you didn't use [noparse]

I still use lowercase for all of my [quote]tags[/quote] and have no [code]issues[/code]... so... what are you talking about? :confused: (all of those were lowercase, in case you were wondering :p) |
Okay, I guess they do still work.
Wonder why lowercase wasn't working for me for a while? I didn't do anything different when I was using them, so I don't think it was user error.

Who cares, lets just get drunk!

I've become a big fan of Consolas, which was released with Vista. Sure, not everyone has it, but I changed Firefox to use it for any fixed-width fonts.

Courier: Font of the gods.

oops, just experimenting with coding.... disregard, please.

I have no idea which greasemonkey script I'm using is breaking it, but I'm not seeing anyone's customized fonts. wahhh

Once upon a time, the [code][/code] block used to kill formatting and reduced whatever was in it to a sort of plain text block where each symbol was given equal spacing. This, as you might understand, was very useful for showing bits of programming code, as well as for making make-pretend tables. This no longer seems to work. The tag just creates a Code block, but everything in it remains identical to how it would have been outside of the code block, and smaller symbols like the dash get horribly smushed together. I noticed someone posted an HTML table before, but since I haven't coded in HTML in over five years, that's really not an option for me.
So, is there any way to get my text neatly lined-up and formed into a make-shift table now that the code tag doesn't do what it's supposed to?
P.S. when I say "once upon a time," I mean "on the old forums."
