HTML from in posts : FFXI General Discussions

Just a quick question. Been having to modify alot of my guides to the type of html that is useable on these posts. Is there any way that the forums can be modified to use the HTML from MS word?? It would make it easier to make Guides and the like and post them nice and neatly on here. Unless i am just uneducated and there is a way and i do not know how.

Thanks for any help anyone can give!!

hm, cant you just copy and paste it on here?

I have tried that, but when i make lists or what not (like the choco guide i made) the spacing does not come out at all. Tabs do not work and i have to manually change the text they way i want it to look. I have even copied the HTML code and it comes up with an error when trying to post. I can work around it, but it makes posting a guide for me a real big headache sine most of the stuff i would post here i already have made out and/or type up on word before posting.

Post the html in like front page. Then copy that front page text and copy it here. That might be able to work

ok i will try that. gotta find front page first though . Thanks for the help

Yea MS word makes horrible horrible code if you try making HTML in it. Simple things like tables come out as ungodly long code with extra ms codes in there that arent rendered well on most browsers, including IE. You should either use real HTML or a better wysiwyg editor like they suggest such as FrontPage. I use Dreamweaver 8 and love it.

You can also make bullets and things using alt-codes. Hold ALT and on the keypad type 0149. Let go of ALT, and you will have a • "bullet".

mircrosoft word 2000 has front page. you can download it from bearshare.com
