Good question :erm:

HR stands for Horizantal Line

[Dismounted]

Wrong, horizontal rule.

Tag = 'hr'

Replace = '<hr color="{option}" width="100%" size="1">'

[ssslippy]

Thanks paul i couldnt figure out the proper way to do it.

[cyberphr]

Tag = 'hr'

Replace = '<hr color="{option}" width="100%" size="1">'

You've forgotten something...
<hr color="{option}" width="100%" size="1" />

[Paul M]

I can't see any difference in what you posted, but as it happens, we don't use that exact code now anyway, we use ;

<hr color="{param}" width="100%" size="1"/>

It should be a self-closed element is what he's saying.

Correct. XHTML. ;)

Well it would be much more helpful if you had just said so, instead of expecting me to spend time trying to spot the difference ......

Shouldn't take more than a few seconds lol

It doesn't work for me unless I write:

This is over [hr'] whatever [/hr'] This is under.

Is there a way to make the forum software understand that I'm not interested in having to write junk text and a closing tag?
The ordinary HTML only has one tag for HR, and that's <hr>... no closing tag required.

Actually, in XHTML 1.0 and onwards, it's <hr /> and technically the validators consider <hr>Text</hr> valid XHTML as well. I personally just did the replacement for my version as <hr /><p>{param}</p>, and asked them to put the text to go under the horizontal line between the tags.

<hr color="{option}" width="100%" size="1" />

You left out the ' ?

It doesn't work for me unless I write:

This is over [hr'] whatever [/hr'] This is under.If you use this code ->

<hr color="{param}" width="100%" size="1"/>i think you should put between the tags a "COLOR" like red or green => [hr ]red[/hr ]

[Distance]

It would be better if it should just use a default colour if nothing is put in between. Also yeah a default character for the middle would be good.

[skepticality]

I don't want the "extras" implemented.

I just want one tag, [hr] to translate to <hr> without the need to have a closing tag. If I write <hr> in the most basic HTML page you can think of, then you get a default Horizontal Rule. That's what I want. Nothing more, nothing less.

vBulletin doesn't work without a closing tag -> if you use bbCode, you always have to close the tags.

i myself use this code:
<hr color="gray" width="{option}" size="1" />so users can diced, how long the line shuold be (in percent)!

In that case just set-up a replacement variable to replace [hr] with <hr />

[skepticality]

Ah!

Thank you!

I never realised that replacement variable kicked in between post database and output compiler. :erm:

Thank you very much. Works like a charm even on vB 4.0.6. :)

Actually, for some weird reason, it only shows in the post preview but doesn't show in the actual post.

This is VB3 discussion, please make a new thread in the VB4 area if you're having issues with VB4.

Thanks.

Thanks for pointing that out, BirdOPrey5. :)
