Does this forum area support format tags for posts?

[Anonymous]

In other programming forums I use there are Forum Specific Tags that display posts in certain formats.

For example:
[VB]

[/VB]

This tag keeps indent format (And color codes) so code is more understandable.

Does this forum have such and animal? If so where can I get a list of them?

Thank you

It does not...

The one tag that we do support is the pre tag (in square brackets) to maintain formatting primarily for code snippets.

Important: Be sure to use square brackets [] not the angle brackets <> used for html tags. Details are included on the Help page.

A more simple method is to attach a txt, lsp, or other file. We recommend that you zip your code files before attaching them.

Here's a sample using the pre tags

Thank you,

I'll start using the pre tag on my code snippets.
