How to leave space before text in the Message Box?

Hello All,

When I post a message, I want my text of certain lines to appear after 2 or 3 tabs, or at 20th or 30th character space in the Message Box, basically I need some preceeding space. If I use tab button inside the Message Box, it doesn't work. If I type some blank space it appears while typing but after posting it doesn't appear. The text gets left aligned.

Please guide me to leave some preceeding space in my message lines.

Thanks.

In postbit or postbit_legacy find

HTML Code:

$post[message]

and before it put as many as these as you need

HTML Code:

<br /><br />

$post[message]

the space in the tag is intentional, now you post as normal but when the post is posted it will be x amount of lines from the top depending on how many BR tags you add.

Is that what you wanted?

Hi Simon Llyod,

Thanks for trying to helping me. But this is not exactly I was trying to do.
Sorry for not able to express it properly.

What I was trying to do is, inside the Text Editor Box, while typing I want to leave some spaces and type again after certain number of spaces.

For example, I have a poem, I want to post it in the forum, and I want to mention them that two lines are repeated, like how I coloured it in red here. I get space here, but only problem is not aligned. But in my board vb 4.1.x it is removing all spaces in between, like the last paragraph here.

Code:

My Butterfly

My butterfly

seemingly delicate

with wings of steel

cold sharp steel



My butterfly                                )   

draws the helpless                       )  2

with her unsurpassed beauty

there is no resisting



My butterfly)       (how it is appearing in my board)

who has no feelings) 2  

but is emotional

making me want

to hurt when

she hurts
