HTML code is parsing!

[Lea Verou]

Sometimes when I try to post a hack which involves template changes and try to wrap the HTML code around the HTML tag sometimes it "parses" the html so it's not what I posted. For example see what I did here https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=99530 to show the users the template changes needed cause I couldn't use that tag as it parsed the < strong > tag! Same with CODE, QUOTE and PHP tags that I tried :(
I can't understand why this is happening since:
HTML code is Off
Maybe it isn't really off?

Testing:

<td>
$vbphrase[total_posts]: <strong>$userinfo[posts]</strong> | Total threads: <strong>$threadcount[count] (<phrase 1="$postsperday">$vbphrase[x_posts_per_day]</phrase>)
</td>

<td>
$vbphrase[total_posts]: <strong>$userinfo[posts]</strong> | Total threads: <strong>$threadcount[count] (<phrase 1="$postsperday">$vbphrase[x_posts_per_day]</phrase>)
</td>

<td>
$vbphrase[total_posts]: <strong>$userinfo[posts]</strong> | Total threads: <strong>$threadcount[count] (<phrase 1="$postsperday">$vbphrase[x_posts_per_day]</phrase>)
</td>

<td>
$vbphrase[total_posts]: <strong>$userinfo[posts]</strong> | Total threads: <strong>$threadcount[count] (<phrase 1="$postsperday">$vbphrase[x_posts_per_day]</phrase>)
</td>

Sorry no - I cannot re-produce this :ermm:

It's possible that you have an issue with loading the WYSIWYG editor (assuming you use it) and it is incorrectly interpreting your <strong> tags as bold...

Yes I'm using the WYSIWYG editor.
Is there anything I can do apart from swicthing to the standard editor? (I love WYSIWYG! :p)
Can you pleease change it in my hack since I cannot, if, of course you have time?
Thanks for your time anyway :)

Hopefully this issue will be sorted when we upgrade to vB 3.5 - There are some issues with the vB3 editors that basically paved the way for the new editor in 3.5 ;)

I've altered the post and added [html] tags to your post, but for now I suggest using the standard editor :)

Thanks a lot! :D

(I hope you upgrade soon, I'm addicted to WYSIWYG! :p)
