bbCode
Wed, Mar 08, 2006 - 01:04am

With Bret's help, I have now implemented bbCode on pimpybra.com!

This is the use of items like [u] and [b] to add style/functionality to some text.

Full bbCode details is listed under the box for comment posting.

Because of this, standard html is no longer allowed.

Mood: Woot!

Yeah... I was going to do that, but I got tired last night...

What's wrong with having bb code? It makes life simple. (And it taught me about how to do regexps in php :) )

nothing is wrong with bbcode, i was just poking fun at you. it's good learning even though someone has done it before.


must be your handling of the multiquote that is failing.

Your website, you plan on doing it yourself, though many other people have gallery alternatives! So don't preach!

But I need to fix the email notifications, it's doubling the friggin lines :(

Shawn, Apache Gallery is all you need.

Eh, being a web application guy, I'll disagree with you.

However, Shawn isn't a a webdev, so... who knows.

Obviously a pre-packaged gallery is easier, but might have annoying side stuff you don't want/need/etc.

Apache Gallery does the job well, as does Gallery, but ehh they both annoy me for certain reasons.

Same here, plus it would be good for me to learn php and learn databases for purposes of possible future employment. I dont want to limit myself if I ever wanted to find a new job.

Yeah, I said in a comment under another post that I did bbCode, but was saving the generated html from the bbcode in the database...

I soon later realized that I should be saving the bbcode in the database instead... So some comments/posts are in this weird mixed state now :(
