BB Codes?

Ummmm....

As STRIKE isn't found in the reply zone, does that mean there are others that can be used, Reeg?

STRIKE & YOUTUBE or the only extra ones i'm aware of.

there used to be something with FLASH, but i don't think it works any more -- not since the big site overhaul of '08...

You might find this old tutorial helpful.


How to Set Preferences, Navigate, Format Posts, Sort Topics on A2K

I managed to get the Flash one to work one or two times but I forgotten what special link one needs to use to make it work. So the option did survive the 08 overhaul. I may have been lucky with my only successful attempts.

The list code is also available.

• Eenie
• Meenie
• Minie
• Moe

i forgot how to do that one, so i've been copying a bullet point symbol from an alt code page...

•.. big bullet

good stuff to know.

You can also make a numbered list.

1. Matthew
   
2. Mark
   
3. Luke
   
4. John

Or a lettered one.

1. Matthew
   
2. Mark
   
3. Luke
   
4. John

Will that work to make a list with no numbers or letters, Jespah?

Not exactly. It seems to just indent without making a hard carriage return.

First Second Third

But it can't indent more by repeating the list element. You just get a bunch of broken code.

[list][list]First Second Third

[/list][/list]

You can bullet (George demonstrated that, above). But when you don't put anything after the list= element, you just get the below.

[list= ][*]First
[*]Second
[*]Third[/list]

But capital letters work just fine (other characters, like the # sign or hyphen or + don't seem to work at all. You also have to start with a or A or 1. You cannot start at any other numbers or letters, it seems.

1. First
   
2. Second
   
3. Third

You can also nest lists.

1. Shopping list
   
   1. Milk
      
   2. Bread
      
   3. Eggs
   
   
2. Stuff we already have
   
   1. Flour
      
   2. Sugar

I just figured out nesting, just now. So thanks for asking.

Nesting might be useful. Thanks for your research.
