Having accessible source code formatting in Vbulletin

[fabianv]

Hi guys,

I thought this might spark an interesting discussion since it has been plaguing me for quite a while now.

Some might argue it is not important to have accessible source code as viewers only care about the the visual output of code but to some of us clean code formatting is essential.

After doing a couple of template modifications on my vbulletin style I noticed that the web generated modifications actually caused the formatting to get lost.

Whenever I go to "View Source" in my browser the code is shown without formatting/breaks/tab spacing.. everything is just one big inline soup mess that breaks occasionally when it hits content (ie.not tags) then continues doing the same thing.

Since vbulletin templates are database driven and can only be modified from the backend it makes formatting the code even harder.

Any thoughts on this, anyone?
