vB And Spaces
 

When you edit a post and add spaces, they don't show up.

I've tested this on my board and this board, does anyone know why?

its a standart formating issue in html

use the [code] tag to also show spaces

I posted a football (soccer) result at my forums and now I can't lay it out properly because the spaces are not showing up.

as said youse code tags for it:

Ok, thanks :)

I didn't realise this before, that the spaces don't show up unless in code tags.

By the way, why was my original post edited?

There is a hack out that will allow you to add spaces inside posts. Check my profile here. ;)

Can't you just make a vbcode for it?

vbCode tag: space
vB Code replacement:  
vB Code example: [space][/space]
vB Code explanation: Allows you to put spaces in your posts
Use {option} ?: No

Done :)

@mist: afaik it's a html thing, so you should enter the correct replacements ;)
but then i think it's possible

@boofo: oh didn't realise it *shame*

@Joe: nothing was really edited, i just tested what you said *gg*

Mist - you will get an underscore where the space should be unless you comment out the code for it in the php file. It is in the hack.

Xenon - That's ok, it is really a small hack, easy to miss, but very useful at times. :)

Boofo - i just tested it on my local board and it works perfectly

I think putting [space] and [/space] is a little ridiculous if you want to add any amount of spaces in a message when the hack will do it with a button click easier and use way less code. Use it your way and see how the amount of characters adds up.

Indeed your way is far better. But this doesn't require hacking :)

This is one more time hacking would be a way better way to go. Your way would be way too cumbersome and way too much trouble for something so simple.
