Title: Using the WYSIWYG link
Post by: Jennifer on October 30, 2003, 06:56:52 PM

I am recopying a post I sent to the main board.  Basically I"m having problems with the "WYSIWYG" button.  Maybe it was not meant to use many colors and fonts.  But when I "preview" using different fonts and colors, I see actual code all over my message.  The only way I've been able to rectify this is by deleting the extra code (whatever code appears written out).  Should I have to do this?

Yes. That's really what it stands for. And why in the world would you go through all the trouble to ADD the code through WYSIWYG and then immediately delete the code immediately after???

You totally misunderstood what I meant.
The codes appear IN MY MESSAGE. I'll show you.
I click on WYSIWYG, and I change the fonts and colors. But when I press submit, the codes are showing in my message.

I "previewed" and saw which codes appeared.  And THAT IS WHAT I DELETED.

Here is an example:




[font="Times New Roman"][/font]


[font="Times New Roman"]I am now using Times New Roman, size 4
font.[/font]

Now I am using Georgia size 5 font.[/color]


My question is why are these codes appearing.

In my message box this appears first:font="Times New Roman"][/font

If I erase this then everything appears as normal (the codes don't show).

Does this make any sense? Am i choosing fonts and colors that don't exist?  Thanks (sorry I guess this should be on the technical board, i apologize). I will post it there as well. But if anyone has any idea feel free to email me, thanks.
