Helvetica BB Code

[yoyoyoyo]

HELVETICA BB CODE
for VB 3.0.0 through 3.0.7

It seems that the kids these days just can't get enough of Helvetica, and I noticed that VBulletin doesn't have Helvetica listed as a standard font, so this BB code adds helvetica to your forum. Users can also choose to define the font size from withn the BB code.

NOTE: Many people will say that Arial and Helvetica are basically the same, but this is not true: many of the characters in Helvetica and Arial are very similar to each other, although none are quite identical.

To add the BB code for Helvetica go to your ACP -> Custom BB Codes ->Add New BB Code.

Title: Helvetica
Tag: helvetica
Replacement: <FONT FACE="HELVETICA" SIZE={option}>{param}</FONT><BR>
example: [helvetica=5]test[/helvetica]
Use {option}: YES

click save
then click on "Add New BB Code" again and enter:

Title: Helvetica
Tag: helvetica
Replacement: <FONT FACE="HELVETICA">{param}</FONT><BR>
example: [helvetica]test[/helvetica]
Use {option}: NO

click save

Now you have installed Helvetica BB Code, and you can either choose to indicate the font size, or leave it at the default.

Please click INSTALL

<FONT FACE="HELVETICA" SIZE={option}>{param}</FONT><BR>

should be

<font face="HELVETICA" size={option}>{param}</font><br />

xhtml transitional. Im sure you can figure out how the otherone should be.
