I wasn't aware that those ever existed as UBB tags.

Of course they didn't. Why would anyone allow

's in a forum post?

As I said, why do you allow <h1>'s?

Because we allow HTML, as I can generally trust you guys to not do stupid things. Like leave open tags.

But it didn't work for me! [Frown]

[h1]See . . . it doesn't work![/h1] [Frown]

Oh! Now it does! LOL!



Say, since when do we use "<" instead of "["? [Confused]

Pointy brackets are HTML code, which work more or less anywhere that doesn't strip them out when you post. Square brackets are UBB code, which only works on UBBs.

That might be the nicest thing anyone has ever said about, well, any of us.

�! Not $! [Razz] [Big Grin]

I'm in the UK guys so please quote � sterling [Wink] [Big Grin]

Mmm, we're probably going to go cable as we've heard that people can hack into a wireless one - but parents are still discussing/considering it. Hope to make the transition soon! [Big Grin]

Point. And there are probably security things you can set up to prevent bandwidth theft or general hacking.

Oh, come on, surely you can convert $ to �. We do have to do it almost everytime we watch TV.

$10 = roughly �6 off the top of my head. Go to [url="Currency Converter"]http://www.xe.com/ucc/[/url]. Also remember that things are often massively overpriced over here.

Check dabs.com.

Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

There were only four smilies in your last post, so it was hard to tell.
