Maestro Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Sometimes I see HTML code in posts like <br>, etc (example). I am trying to recreate this oddity, so that I may advise members how to avoid it. If anybody has any ideas about it, please post it here in this topic. -- Maestro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you preview your post? what is your browsers code page? is your editor set to plain text or RTF? do you use any spellchecker add-on? do u use the Lazarus add-on? do you have the skype extension enabled?

If you did, did you type directly in the reply box? Perhaps it has nothng to do with the copy/paste from Notepad, which I did when I got the problem once, but not on subsequent tries. -- Maestro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
