[smithy256]

thanks keep up the good work

[lichtflits]

have you a acemple of this?

[smithy256]

how do i install these?

[ozone2000]

here's a screenshot:

[smithy256]

ozone will u install all these on my forum?

[ozone2000]

Installation notes:

1. Open your browser.

2. go to your boards admin center.



3. scroll down in the side menu untill you see the option called Custom BB codes click on the Add link.now you see some text fields and boxes in the main frame, those fields have names as you can see, these names i used above in all those BB codes, so now you simply have to copy and paste those codes into the matching textfield or box.



4. Now click save to save the BB, repeat all this if you want to add more BB codes.

[floleb7]

if we use [fliph][flipv] ..... together it's no good for the table

[WEBDosser]

These are GREAT.. i like it..:D

[Martz]

Fantastic, I like these :)

[BBInsider]

Thank you! I was nervous at first, newbie here, but your screen shots and directions made it easy!

[ubje]

Thanx i used some :)

[ozone2000]

thanks, ive been looking for that code, i knew it was already posted but this time i finally could get it to work proberly

[mojotim]

Nice stuff, thanks for posting them :)

[orca]

Just also thanks from here. They worked great :).

[orca]

Here's the modified bbcode template for the added codes. Just replace your old bbcode template with this. Of course you can edit it more if you like. You can see an example of how it looks like @ http://forum.arachid.org.
In the inwindow code is a little bug. The closing div tag got forgotten. If this tag is not closed, everything after the inwindow will be centered. The correct code should be:


<div align=center><iframe name="cwindow" style="border:0" width=500 height={option} src="http://{param}"></iframe></div>

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

vB Code example
----------------------
This Text Goes Up From Down

Use {option} ?
---------------------
no

[Martz]

Problem!

This has the potential for a poster to mess up the appearance of your showthread - the codes use <table> tags and if a user doesn't close them correctly, their entire post gets screwed up :( Is there anyway to do this without tables?

[ozone2000]

Maybe, but i dont know any

[Hoffi]

Hi,

just use this instead of Table:


<div style="width:100%; filter:glow(color=blue, strength=4)">{param}</div>

take a div-Tag and include a width option. Then it works.
which width you must built in different. at the flipH you need to paste a 1.

regards
Hoffi

[Hoffi]

I just changed the Code foe my glow with color Option.

vBCode tag:
----------------
glow

code:------------------------------------------------------------------------
<div style="width:100%; filter:glow(color={option}, strength=4)">{param}</div>

Use {option} ?

I'm not sure this is a problem. I tried to break the glow tag by not closing it correctly and it doesn't dispay glow right, but it doesn't mess up showthread.

[WEBDosser]

Works fine for me i have ver 2.0.3 no problems

[foens]

I am very impresed - especialy with the [inwindow]

However - that can give a very heavy load in the users browser as it makes "a lot of windows to the world"

Is there a way to modify so it gives a "still dump" - ei the screen of the locatioin without the possibility to navigate in that window???

Well, the post that the user makes is broken because of the table not being closed, the rest of the thread is unaffected but it certainly is messy. I'll try using the <div method when my forums are back up and online. :)

[Goddess Washu]

What about a spoiler tag, something that makes the text the same as the background... :D

[Johnny]

is there to a bb code that the text go's vertical over the screen!

[Dunny]

cheers mate, worked a charm!

[blade57]

bro can you tell me what the bb code is for the text ive took mine out and i need to replace it with the right code for the text colour to work please help

[Steve Machol]

blade57,

Please enter your license info into your user profile. See my sig for details. Thanks! :)

[NYI Fan]

These are all awesome, and they worked without a hitch.
I do have a question though (my search came up with close to, but not exactly, what i was looking for)

Which template do I need to edit to include these new items in the vBcode help page? (the one that pops up, not the normal FAQ page)

Thanks!

[JJR512]

I have customized the glow tag so that you can specify both the color and the strength through the tag itself.

This is my code replacement:

<div style="width:100%; filter:glow{option}">{param}</div>
This is my example:

this text is glowing

Goddess Washu, here is my spoiler tag: http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?threadid=16306

Thanks!
==============================================
<feeling like a moron>
Nevermind, somehow I overlooked the (DOH!) bbcodes template
Thanks anyway
</moron mode>

[Alien]

It's been mentioned before, but thought I'd ask too...

One for "spoilers" where the foreground and background color is the same (and you have to highlight it with your mouse to see the spoiler) or something would be really great!

Either that, or it could could give a warning, then count to 20 down the screen before revealing the spoiler...?

Hmm.

:D

[Alien]

Whoops, didn't catch the post on spoilers by JJR512, but got it working now.. Thanks guys! :)

Thanks god you gave me a idea!!!:D :D
Ill see if i can fix up a code where you can choose the height and width!

[JJR512]

To get both the height and width as user-specified, what you have to do is something like this:

Tag: swf

Code Replacement: <embed src={option} type=application/x-shockwave-flash></embed>

Code Example:

You see, because the user must type in the source path to the flash file, followed by height= and witdth=, and all that is inside the quotes, all of the becomes the {option}. So the code replacement, which is embed src={option} type=application/etc. then becomes embed src=<path> height=xxx width=yyy type=application/etc.

Note that nothing actually goes inside the tag, inside the square brackets.

[NYI Fan]

Would someone be so kind as to point me to the proper template to add these to the pop up FAQ for BBCodes? I have added many of these, but am unsure how to share them with my members.

Thanks much!

[Steve Machol]

BB codes don't go in the templates.

Admin CP -> Custom BB codes -> Add

[NYI Fan]

Sorry Steve
Thats not what I meant
I successfully added the code in, i just need to know how to edit the FAQ to reflect the new bbcodes available to my users
(Unless i missed something, and they shoudl be there automatically after I add the code?)

Thanks!

[Steve Machol]

Ah, I see. Nope, you'd have to manually add these.

[NYI Fan]

OK, thats my question ;)
Where?

And, part II of the question, how do i show the syntax without making the action happen? (like here I would use spaces to show [ b ] example of bold [ /b ] )

[Steve Machol]

I think what you're looking for is the bbcode template.

And as for the second part of your question, you can see how this is done by looking at the examples in the bbcode template.

[NYI Fan]

<blockquote>!!!!
I was reading thru the bbcode template as you posted this
Thank you so much

(are you blinded by all the light bulbs that just went off over my head? ;) Shesh, if the template had teeth.... sorry for not catching this before asking dopey questions)

Thanks again!

[ozone2000]

THANK YOU, and everyone who has posted new bbCodes. It is totally appreciated!

Excellent stuff, Ozone2000!!!

Thank you and all the others who contributed.

[slice]

is there anyway of putting the buttons for these new vB codes in the 'post reply' and 'new thread' areas like the 'b' for the bold and the 'i' for italic functions are?

[Cyrus]

ditto to slice !!

[Maxsteel]

This is wrong ... flash uses 2 tags

<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=5,0,0,0" {option} >
<param name=movie value="{param}">
<param name=quality value=high>
<embed src="{param}" quality=high pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" {option}>
</embed>
</object>

You NEED to have both Embed and Object for flash to work in browsers IE 5.5 and IE 6

But I can't for the life of me get it to work in vB

See I can get it to work if only using the {param} for the URL of the file, but when I want to add {option} for the width and height...it doesn't work

[GenSec]

As example.
Add to vbcode_buttons template
<input type="button" class="bginput" value=" X " onclick="vbcode(this.form,'spoiler','')" onmouseover="stat('x')" title="Spoiler (alt+x)" accesskey="x" >
And you will have "X" button for the spoiler

[cooldude]

how do u make the users names glow it is not working on my forums

[EgoProwler]

I'm having some trouble understanding the use of the {option} portion of the [inwindow] BB Code

<div align=center><iframe name="cwindow" style="border:0" width=500 height={option} src="http://{param}"></iframe></div>

I want to specify a height for the window but can't seem to figure out how to right the [inwindow] code. Any help is appreciated.

[slice]

How do I create a button for the newly added vB Code?

thanks

do you mean writing it in a post, or setting a specifik height in the BBcode setup?

heres how to do it in a post:

type:
****

info:
**= replace it with the height you want!
****= replace this with the url!


... i pmed you with the BBcode setup stuff earlyer,!

[Smoothie]

For some reason, I can't seem to get any of these BBcodes to work on my board. Using version 2.20. Any suggestions?

I got all of them working on my test forum, now I am wondering If I should add them or will they abuse them, but I dont have enough members to worry about..

[DarkReaper]

Wouldn't it make sense to have vB automatically have the added vB codes in the FAQ?

[vB Warlord]

Could you please explain how to add buttons for the glow, shadow, scroll up, and marquee features in lamens terms for dummies like me? :D

[Dalius]

Anyone got code + example of a the quote tag changed to its in a table?
like talkloud?

[Rose]

OMG!!! Thank you, Ozone and all those who participated in this thread - this was a lifesaver!!

I originally searched to make the 'glow' code into vb code as this is really popular. However, I found so much more than I wanted!!!!


Thank you! :D

[Bioderm]

goto www.vbulletin.org for my hack that adds these to the buttons list.

im still working on inwindow and the others but glow and shadow are up.

[Scrooge]

First, thank you for all of these codes, they are great!

I would like to point out one problem though. You cannont use glow and shadow together. The problem seems to be that they both use /table, so when you close one and then the other, you get strange effects. You can see this on my board at http://www.reefaquariumguide.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&postid=26036#post26036 near the bottom of the thread.

If there is a solution to this let me know please. Otherwise, you might want to inform your users that they can't use both of these together.

vb Code Tag
----------------------
quote


vB Code replacement
----------------------------
<table border="1" width="80%" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" bgcolor="#a0a0a0"><tr>

<b>Quote:</b><br />{param}

</tr></table>


vb Code example
-------------------------
[ quote ]blah blah blah blahzy blah[ /quote ]



Use {option} ?
-------------------------
Nope



==============================
Remove the spaces from the [ quote ] in the example and that should give you a similar effect to talklouds. In fact, Im willing to bet its the same one. :D Sorry Im a bit late with response.

[Streicher]

vb Code Tag

One problem with the inwindow. It will show the site in the window, then just go to that site alltogether. How can that be fixed?

[Dotagious]

For the glow vbcode... do you have to make a new code for each color you want to glow?

[Zzed]

Thank you ozone2000. :) You are awesome. :)

[marc_t]

First of all: This is damn GREAT! ;)

But: I have a question to all this

->
When I want a special bb-code just to be used by certain users, the moderators for example, what do I have to to? Is thee a chance to allow certain users to use the code an others to not use it?

Thanks for help!

smachol->
I don´t have the permission to make a request though I registered. Could you probably make a request for me instead?

Would be great.

thx

[Xelation]

If you bought a license you would be able to request this... which means you probably have an illegal version.

I have a legal Version www.flashforum.de!

Where do I have to enter the code of vBulletin? Didn´t see it...

<blockquote><smallfont><b><font color="#000088">.:Your Forum rules:.</font> </b></smallfont><hr><b>View full rules <a href="rules.html">here</a></b><br>{param}<hr></blockquote>

vB Code example: Place part of the Your Forum rules here

Use {option} ?: No

Where it says Your Forum (in there twice) replace it to the name of your forum.

Where it says rules.html change it to the URL of the rules on your site.

It looks like this on my site:

[DWZ]

hmmm... my picture didn't upload...

It looks like this on my site:

[Bald Bouncer]

This is really a code for moderators and admin, you can replace the text with whatever you want and I find it tends to stop a string of messages like Why has my message been edited
This could be abuse by members , if so change the tag.

<div align=center><font color=red>{bbusername} {param}</font></div>

vB Code example

Use {option} ?
No

NOTE: I have not tested this code. I have not installed this hack or put this BB code on my forum, so i have no idea if it works or not though I see no reason why it shoudn't work... post a note, tell us how you go...

Thanks DWZ.. I'm checking what version of php is running and then I'm going to install that. rock on.

Hmmm... the problem is of course that the name will change to whoever is viewing the page, not stay consistent with the author of the post. I'm looking for it to be the user's name.. not appear to be everyone's. Am I making any sense?

Is there a way to do this on any board other than ikonboard? Or am I dreaming?

I have another version of the Spoiler tag. This one creates a button with a customizable title, and when you click on it, it pops a dialog box with the spoiler contents.

vB Code tag:

spoiler


vB Code replacement:

vB Code example:

This is the spoiler text...

Use {option} ?:

Yes

Here's the correct way to add flash files WITH height/width options to your vbcodes :)

vB Code Tag: swf
vB Code Replacement:
<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=5,0,0,0" {param}>
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="{option}"> <EMBED src="{option}" quality=high {param} TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash" PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash"></EMBED>
</OBJECT>

vB Code Example:
width="400" height="100"

vB Code Explanation:
Adds a flash movie to your post or signature.
Just give it the height and width parameters and you're set.

Use {option} ?: YES

[plattopus]

If you use that Flash format, I've written how to add an SWF button to each posting screen:

I have a small problem. I got the Glow text installed, but when I click on the "G" button in the post screen, nothing happens and at the bottom left of the screen, where it usually says, "Done" on Internet Explorer, it says "error on page" Any idea what could be wrong?

[Dean C]

nice AIM code....

[TalonKarrde]

dunno if you were being sarcastic are not..could care less if you were, and if you werne't being sarcastic..well...it took me 5 seconds of view source of the aim remote stuff, and then 2 seconds of pasting it, and then 10 of chaning the SN to {param} and adding the message to "Hey, I'm from the forums!"
SO it doesn't really deserve a compliment =\

Hey Ozone, nice work. Very nice.

Had one question on the inwindow vb code

(<div align=center><iframe name="cwindow" style="border:0" width=500 height={option} src="http://{param}"></iframe>)

I'm using it to have a QuickTime viewer show in my thread, but I've noticed that even though " border = 0", I've got a border showing up around my "inwindow" box. I'm using a blue html page with QuickTime embedded in it, so that the QT player shows right in the message box. But, you can see the outline, in my blue VB, of the inwindow box. How do I get rid of that???

Thanks!

Is there a way to make it so the text used in the glow tags remains on the same line, i.e.

...where the word "text" is glowing and the others are not, as opposed to...

[diades]

hmm i need code tags for tables
because when people use the image tag they just end up displaying all the way down the page

This can be done but, it is another dangerous one in that it can screw the page if the user gets it wrong. For fullest adaptability I have done it using three tags, , and you would also have to eonsure that no whitespace is between any vbcode tags, eg:
[grid][row]Blah
not:


Blah


as that also has an adverse effect.


bbCode:
Table content
HTML:
<table [option] summary="">Table content</table>
Use option = yes


bbCode:
Row cells
HTML:
<tr>Row content</tr>
Use option = no

[cell]
bbCode:
Cell 1
HTML:
<td [option]>Blah</td>
Use option = yes

Now it has to be put together:


[grid="style='width:200px;border-collapse:collapse;'"][row][cell="style='width:33%;border:1px solid #0000ff;padding:5px'"]Your bbcode/text hereYour bbcode/text hereYour bbcode/text here

We run an web development forum and it is not one that I would allow the members to use as it is far too easy to mess up.

[Faruk]

http://everythingvb.com/misc.php?do=bbcode#float

You can use my float tag to mimic tables without the risk of your page layouts being messed up by people using table-bbcodes improperly.

See attached image..

No Hacking required for this.

Take the following Image and following BBCode:

Title: Schield

Tag: schield (or whatever you want)

Replacement:


<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td align="center" style="background-color: White; border: 1px solid Black; padding: 1px;"><normalfont>{param}</normalfont></td>
</tr>
<tr><td align="center">
<img src="absolut/path/to/your/image.gif" alt="" border="0">
</td></tr>
</table>


Use Option: No

Works on vB2 and vB3

If you want more than one Image use the Option tag and name the Images to schield1.gif etc. and use Filepath shield{option}.gif
Than call with [ schield=1]test[/shield]

Have fun.

Do NOT install this bbcode. Or anything that allows members to input information into an input variable like that. It allows members to copy cookies onto their own computer and log in as that member. How do I know this? It happened on my forum last week, and someone had access to our staff accounts and forums for weeks. :) Luckily, this "hacker" was benign and did no damage.

Basically, allowing a member to input stuff using an input variable is not a good idea, as it brings up a XSS security vulnerability.

If you've had this bbcode installed, be warned that your forums may have already been compromised, since this vulnerability is apparently well-known.

[Erwin]

Another example of a bbcode that has a security hole is this one:




Button

Example - Click Me!

Replacement - Code:

<FORM><INPUT TYPE="button" value="{param}" Name="Button" onClick="window.location='{option}'"></FORM>






If you have this, remove it. Again, it allows a member to inject javascript to copy cookies using the input variable.


To stop the hacker from using stolen cookies, just get all your members and staff to change their passwords. Once the password is changed, the stolen cookies are rendered useless.

Just sharing my experiences. :)

[msimplay]

what about the anchor code does that allow for it aswell ?
or just the javascript ones ?

I was wondering how to show a BBCODE tag in a post without parsing it but I didn't find anything useful.
I wrote this little custom BBCODE to handle this problem, and this could help you if you need to explain a BBCODE syntax to someone:

Title: Showing a BBCODE
Tag: SHOWBBCODE
Replacement: [*{option}]*{param}[*/*{option}]* (you need to replace * with ; )
Example: Bold text
Description: Shows a BBCODE tag in a post without parsing it
Use options: Yes

I found this easy bbcode useful for my forum and I really hope this could be the same for you all!
At now, I'm looking to find a way to separate the open tag from the close tag.
If you'll find some bug or whatever else I'll be glad to read your replies

P.S: each time you'll modify this BBCODE, you'll need to type again the code written in 'Replacement' because VBulletin will show it parsed ;)

[Zachery]

You try showing the users misc.php?do=bbcode

http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/misc.php?do=bbcode

[muscle-mustangs]

hmm.....I added the codes, all went well but when I type on the forum for example: this text is blurred it just says: this text is blurred. Any reason why my bb codes wont work? I even tried the shadow one and nothing?

[Zzed]

hmm.....I added the codes, all went well but when I type on the forum for example: this text is blurred it just says: this text is blurred. Any reason why my bb codes wont work? I even tried the shadow one and nothing?

It's your browser. ;)

Blur/shadow/glow are HTML tags that are supported by IE only. :)

[Khaleel]

Thanks this is a good thread *rates* its good that they are all html valid as well -thanks :D

[mentalrz]

the iframe code, i want it so only an admin or mod can use it ..

How do i do this


cos if sum noob puts this onto a thread witht housands of cookies or whatever....

DOH!!!

[TruthElixirX]

THanks guys. My forum is just getting started and I was having lots of toruble tracknig down some good HTML to convert to bb codes. but this works beautifully. Thanks to eveyone who contributed.

[Michael Morris]

Someone else caught it, but it bears repeating...

Filters are Micro$oft proprietary tags. They only work on IE. Firefox, Netscape & Safari (I think) use moz tags, but not all the tricks you can play with IE are possible with those tags.

Be aware of this when installing these tags and if you have a large user base make sure they understand it to.

It would be nice to be able to set up a conditional to alternate between methods as necessary, but condtionals can't be put in bbcodes (yet - I'd like to find a hack to allow it). Hence...

<if condition="is_browser=='IE'">
Code for the IE method
<else />
Shoot the code for mozilla and pray.
</if>

You most likely could if you hard coded it in includes/functions_bbcodeparse.php

[Michael Morris]

You most likely could if you hard coded it in includes/functions_bbcodeparse.php

Possible yes. I still would rather have the ability to use conditionals in any bbcode I create rather than having to hack functions_bbcodeparse. I haven't investigated doing this - it may be simply a matter of evaluating the bbcode insertion before passing it back out.

[nubian]

can someone please explain this the inframe bbcode?
it's seems a bit strange on how to set up an iframe window






title = Iframe
tag = inwindow
replacement = <div align=center><iframe name="cwindow" style="border:0" width=500 height={option} src="http://{param}"></iframe>
example = http://www.your_website_url.com
description = Insert Iframe
use option = yes
is this correct?
also the same with my flash swf bbcode


title = Flash
tag = swf
replacement = <embed src={option} width=400 height=300 type=application/x-shockwave-flash></embed>
example =
description = Macromedia Flash
use option = yes
how can i set up this flash bbcode so that i have options for the url = xxx height = xxx weight = xxx ?

i have vb 3.0.3 and very new to bbcode
any help on how to achieve this will be greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance

[Zachery]

1 WARNING THIS CODE CAN CRASH YOUR SITE AND STEAL YOUR USERS COOKIES IF ABUSED I WOULD NOT USE IT!

You cannot set hight and width, you are limited to two varibles {param} and option

use

<embed src={param} width=400 height=300 type=application/x-shockwave-flash></embed>

Instead.

[Tavernkeeper]

I like this thread, here's another one that will make your text change colour from right to left.

VB Code Tag

neon

That is great!

[Tavernkeeper]

Since the spoiler tag on the previous page is unsafe, can anyone recommend a different one?

[cinq]

I think I came across a Google bbcode on some boards
Anyway has that ?

[Webnower]

Hey guys.

A couple people here were wondering how to do the spoiler tags where it reveals itself with just a mouseover, so here it is. I hope this hasn't been posted already.

In your main CSS, add the following to your "Additional CSS Definitions":

.spoiler { COLOR: #000000; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #000000 }
In your BB Code Manager, input the following:

Title:
Spoiler Tags

Tag:
spoiler

Replacement:

<span class="spoiler" onmouseover="this.style.color='#FFFFFF';" onmouseout="this.style.color=this.style.backgroundColor='#0000 00'">{param}</span>
Example:
TheHeggy likes cheese

Description:
This tag will black out the text between the code, and make it visible only when you move your mouse over it.

[aranthorn]

I did not write these, but I couldn't find them on here anywhere, so I'm adding them to the collection. They were posted on vbadvanced.com for public view.


This prolly have been done before but here is how I added a custom BB code that will wrap text around a picture.
Might be useful in news forum etc

Title:
Wrap text around image

Tag:
wrap

Replacement:

<table border="0" align="left" valign="top">
<tr>
<td><img src="{param}" border="0" align="left"></td>
</tr>
</table>

Example:
imgurl

Description:
This will wrap text around a picture of your choice. Just add the url to the img you wish to use.

Use {option}:
No


This method requires no code changes and allows you to specify the alignment (left, right, top, or bottom):


Title:
Image with alignment

Tag:
img2

Replacement:

<img src="{param}" align="{option}" border="0" hspace="6" vspace="3" alt=""/>
Example:


Description:
This tag allows you to align an image to the right of left of your text.

Use {option}:
Yes

[nathanaus]

Am I allowed to request a BB code here?

Sitepoint has a fantastic off-topic code they use. You type in [ ot] [ /ot] and you get a completely different look and feel to the generated box.

An example of it can be found here: http://www.sitepoint.com/forums/showpost.php?p=1573022&postcount=1

Anyone know how that was done? Much appreciated :)

[Webnower]

Here ya go. I just cannibalized Floris's Partner Box code and came up with this. Looks almost exactly the same as what you linked to.


Title: Off Topic

Tag: offtopic

Replacement:
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr><td class="alt1">
<div class="smallfont">
<div class="time"><strong>Off Topic:</strong></div><br />
{param}
</div>
</td></tr></table><br />

Example:
Hello!

Description:
Off topic box.

A attatched a screenshot as well. Hope this helps.

[nathanaus]

Wow thank you so much. Much appreciated :)

[eJM]

I am using this for an EDIT box, primarily for commenting changes made after the original post, whether made by the OP or a moderator/admin:

Title: Edit Box

Tag: edit

Replacement:
<div style="padding:$stylevar[cellpadding]px">
<fieldset class="fieldset">
<legend style="font-size: 11px;">EDIT</legend>
<br />
{param}
</fieldset>
</div>

Use {option}: No

I would appreciate very much if someone could tell me how to make the box outline and the text of the edit red.

Thank you.

Thank you ozone2000 for sharing your BB codes with us!!! And thank you to everyone else who shared them too!!! :D

[Motoscene]

Just wanted to Thank everyone here that has gave there input on this topic. I am new to working with my forums. And this topic help me learn alot more about the codes. I would like to add music to my forums. I like the mid code that Ozone2000 shared, How would I use that in a forum template or table. And what table would I place it in. Thanks to everyone. Chain

[TruthElixirX]

There is an Iframe code listed right? I thouht I'd let everyone know this has a security hole in it. If somenoe sticks this in a thread and links it to the log out page it will kick you out. Happened at some forums I frequent. I'd suggest getting rid of it before someone puts it in there sig.

[Eroc]

<input type="button" value="{option}" name="B1" onClick="alert('{param}')">Do NOT install this bbcode. Or anything that allows members to input information into an input variable like that.

<snip>

Basically, allowing a member to input stuff using an input variable is not a good idea, as it brings up a XSS security vulnerability.Is it the value=option that's the culprit or the alert(param)?

[mgurain]

Hello,

Are Ozone's Custom BBcodes validin VB3.0.7 ?

It was written 2001 !!! WOW

I was happy with them and just want to use them, but I have a lettle question :

What if I change these Custom BBcodes later on, will they be parsed correctly ?

for example :

instead of :

some text
I use :

some text
knowing that these both use the same HTML tags .

thanks in advance,,

[JsnakeJ]

I am making an updated thread that is easier for people to find BBcodes they want. I am also adding some codes of my own to it.

[angelicGrace]

Wow great custom bb codes everyone one!

[Deviant++]

screenshots not showing :(

[EasyTarget]

So if I understood some of this, is it true that bbcodes which use the table tag could potentially cause template problems if the tags aren't used correctly?

[diades]

Hi EasyTarget

Any bbCode that uses HTML within it has the potential to make a mess within the page if not byuilt or used correctly but tables are especially prone as they interfere with the structure, not just the formatting.

I tried to add the

code.. however all I get is the above code and a big white box.. where normally the "edit & remove" options are for the BBCodes.. well they arent' there. I have no way of removing or even editing this code now. How would I get rid of it ?

use the browser scrollbar at the bottom to scroll to the right and you'll see the buttons..I JUST had this same issue...and the white box is because you have no real movie at the example URL

Look back a few pages. I cant remember which page its on but theres a code there for mods and admin about editing code.
It a code where they can just stick in whatever, and then when they go to use it just . I'm sure you could adapt it.
