Prevent <img> tags from being parsed to [img]???

[cleck673]

Is there a way to prevent HTML Image tags and formating from being parsed into bb image tags, thus losing formatting?

I am using an article system and have tons of review to "port" over and the form is parsing to BB code from the cutting and pasting of the content. The only real trouble I am experiencing is the Image formating getting whacked out.

The best solution I can think of is to force the HTML code to stay in place.

Did I ask this question right, or have I left people in confusion?

I can't bump this I bet? It will automerge?

Not quite understanding what you're saying, but I think I understand. You want to post something that has a lot of HTML and don't want it to convert over to bbCode?

Correct. More specificlly, images...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

IN 3.5's entry box, I can take and highlight a page.... copy, then past in the box. It displays properly including the image alignments (ie. align="right"). Once hit post, it messes up alignment. When I go into and look at the source in the entry block in edit mode, the images are now [img] tags.

Maybe I am not describing what I am trying to say right?

Is HTML enabled on your forum?

Use the [noparse] tags around the HTML and see if that works.

Thanks. (belated) --- no parse tag hooked it up just fine!
