Hello,
I just wanted to ask that how can i replace a text with some other text on my forum.
For e.g. I want to replace "cat" word with "dog" :D
So how can i do that ??
It should be like if any one types the "cat" word in any post then it should automatically convert to "dog"
PS- "cat" n "dog" are only examples :p

You can either use Replacement Variables (under Styles & Templates) or get a mod - search "replac*" "all mods" "titles only"

Why? Is that because you see " text all over the places? If yes, then simply create a replacement variable from &quot; to ". If not, then better leave " as it is since it's the way HTML escapes (encodes) the character " so that that character in actual text does not interfere those used in HTML attributes, as in <img src="clear.gif" />

Yes actually it comes something like that given below :
I am trying to submit a new url to Google, but after I press "Add Url", it only takes me to a blank white page.. Any idea whats wrong?
And it should be :

Are you saying that everytime someone posts an actual double-quote, ", that it shows up as " instead? It sounds to me like you should figure out why that is and fix the issue (that is not standard vbulletin) instead of patching it with replacing text.
