So I'm trying to put a code example in my FAQ, but it automatically parses my text entered for the description!

How in the world do I stop it?

Thanks,
Brinnie

I think you can do something like <b<b>>bold</b</b>> or something.

[ noparse] maybe?

It doesn't listen to BBCode. :(

Brinnie, try without the beginning space.

[noparse]Some bbcode stuff here

I did that, but I don't think the FAQ parses BBCode like anouncements and stuff do. Just HTML.

ok, I see what Marco meant now. What you need to do is add a space before the code like he did:

[ b]
That will disable it although there will be a space in it. Can you use quote tags in there maybe and put the code in that?

I was looking at this and wondered how they did it for the bbcode examples. What I discovered was it isn't located in the FAQ. What they've done is call from misc.php.


'bbcode' => array(
'help_bbcodes',
'help_bbcodes_bbcode',
'help_bbcodes_link',
'bbcode_code',
'bbcode_html',
'bbcode_php',
'bbcode_quote',
),


I think you'll have to do something similar in order to display raw html within the FAQ.

um.. don't use html? use the proper ascii characters to represent the html code you want to display.

The FAQ parses HTML.
It doesn't parse BBCode.

So using a BBCode to stop parsing HTML is impossible. Because It doesn't Parse BBCode!!! :mad:

&gt; &lt; Should end up parsing as < and > (might have goten that backwords)

&gt;html&lt; should parse as <html>

yep it's backward

&lt;html&gt;
lt = less than
gt = greater than

Bah I haven't slept in hours, besides she'd figure it out when it got parsed :D

How can I enable the FAQ to support bbcode and everything the Forums do?

Or does this pose a threat to the security in any way.

<a href="http://www.onlinetools.org/tools/htmlizerdata/" target="_blank">http://www.onlinetools.org/tools/htmlizerdata/</a>

Use that, then post the resulting code into your FAQ.
