A couple questions:

1. What are "Code Tags", "HTML Tags" and "PHP Tags"?

2. Why would you use them?

This is from the forum FAQs. (http://www.heavyequipmentforums.com/Forum/faq.php?faq=vb_read_and_post#faq_vb_special_codes)

And this link is provided at the end of that section. (http://www.heavyequipmentforums.com/Forum/misc.php?do=bbcode) It explains more than you'd ever want to know. :bash

The only part that it leaves out is that, if you make a post with exactly the right (or would it be wrong?:confused: ) combination of code, HTML, and PHP tags, the entire fabric of the space/time continuum will suddenly unravel. Experimentation is highly discouraged... :nono

Oh geez! Now I feel the urge to try. But then I'll get yelled at again. But I really want to try. But no I'll get yelled at again.

I must resist the urge... :spaz

Well I will ask one question though. Down at the bottom left of this screen is the "Posting Rules" box. Why is the IMG and HTML code turned off? The IMG code might be nice when posting/explaining multiple photos.

I'll just have to take the "Flux Capacitor" out of the DeLorean and use it to hold the fabric together during experimentation. :bouncegri

Thanks for the references. All that stuff is too advanced for me. :yup

Don't do it Constsite. :spaz I only have one "Flux Capacitor" and I don't know how to use it. :D

Those functions are not activated for security purposes. They are too big a risk to boards like this to hackers.

The other night I started pushing buttons to see what they would do in a post. Those wouldn't do anything so I figured I was doing something wrong but I guess I wasn't.

Thanks for clearing that up Steve. :thumbsup

I sometimes drive on the left side of the road, but only when I'm going the opposite direction... :yup
