Custom Page parsing List BB's problem

[extends]

Have a difficult time parsing List's using the vB_BbCodeParser function


$parser = new vB_BbCodeParser($vbulletin, fetch_tag_list());

$customPreText= '

Testing
Testing List 2
Testing Color


How to Join';

$customText = $parser->parse($customPreText);

//...Register variables and place in template ...


The problem is, is that everything works (bold, underline, center etc) except the List.

How do I fix this?

I tried this test program and it seems to work:

<?php

require './global.php';

require_once('includes/class_bbcode.php');
$parser = new vB_BbCodeParser($vbulletin, fetch_tag_list());

$customPreText= ' Testing Testing List 2 Testing Color
How to Join';

$customText = $parser->parse($customPreText);

echo $customText;



What do you do with $customText after it's set?

I don't understand why I'm having such troubles then :(

I register it
$templater->register('custommsg', $customText);

then I display it in the template

{vb:raw custommsg}

I even tried to echo it, still does not work.

ugh. Maybe its working, but I just don't get the small bulletins that are suppose to appear.


<-Like these
<-one's
<-here


It formats them to drop down over one another, but no bulletins.

Have you looked to see what the html looks like?

Have you looked to see what the html looks like?

<li style="">Testing</li><li style="">Testing List 2</li><li style=""><font color="#ff0000"><b><u>Testing Color</u></b></font></li></ul><div style="text-align: center;"><b><font color="#333399">How to Join</font></b>

Does it have <ul>...</ul> around it?

I'm thinking it's something to do with CSS (and I'm not really a CSS person). I was playing around with FireBug (it lets you see the CSS and change it to see what happens), and I notice there's a "list-style: disc outside" that comes from the vbulletin.css template, and if I remove it I get no bullets.

Yes i'm pretty sure it's a css problem, maybe you have this code somewhere?
list-style-type: none

[extends]

nvm... I'll have to wait till I go home to try somethings with the CSS

[Scanu]

Oh i just remembered that vbulletin does it by default you can try to wrap you variable (on the template with a div like this

<div id="test">{vb:raw custommsg}</div>

And then add this css code

#test {
list-style-type: circle;
}

[extends]

Thing is, it's not evening indenting to the right or putting the bulletin.

I see nothing in the CSS's using firebug that has list-style-type: none. Only if I dig deep into the HTML (that I believe does not effect it) do I see that command.

I also tired Scanu's css solution to no prevail. Though all that would do is change that to a bulletin, which didn't work. Even when I tried to force it on firebug.

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

Something in the {vb:raw headinclude} is preventing me from using these bulletins. When removed it works as intended. But of course it messes up my display.

[Scanu]

#test {
list-style-type: circle !important;
}

You can try this it should overwrite vbulletin's css
