HREF Syntax In UBB?
    #5705117 - 06/02/06 06:59 PM (17 years, 8 months ago)

For those of you who know HTML...

Know how <A HREF> has the ability to link to a specific point in a document by adding "#name" to the end of the URL?

Code:
<a href="/index.html#BoilingJars">Can I sterilize my WBS jars by boiling them for 20 hours?</a>



...and the link on the target page itself (index.html) might look like:

Code:
<a name="BoilingJars">



...and so clicking on the link would bring you to this specific part of the page.

I was thinking about drawing up my own little FAQ, questions I hear (and answer) most frequently, but it would require that UBB have some sort of analogue.

Suggestions?

I don't think regular users have any option to use HTML in a post. This was done because we had some issues with people using HTML maliciously in the past.

Mods and admins can use HTML however, so if you make the FAQ, a mod could edit your post and do what you want to do.

Hm. That's interesting. I wonder if the mods could "allow" the <A NAME=""> equivalent to work in UBB code. I'm not even sure it's possible, much less allowable.

Can any moderators speak to this? Obviously we can already link to documents via [URL] but would there be any problem with adding the <A NAME=""> equivalent in UBB so we can link to specific points within a document?

generally html is disabled on bbs.

Although I'm pretty sure you can use #name markers in bbcode with [ url=bleh#pie ] pie [ / url ]

Yes, but he is looking for the UBB code equivelant of the other half of the equation: the (A NAME) tag...

Perhaps some enterprising Mod or Admin would be willing to edit your FAQ and insert the various HTML (A NAME) tags where you specify...

You need both tags to do what he's asking. A HREF has a UBB equivelant, A NAME does not, at least in our implementation of UBB code, which is limited...

I wish we either had limited HTML, or expanded UBB, as I miss being able to change the size and colors of my fonts for my artsy-fartsy posts...

PS: Basic tables would be nice too..

Drat.

Asking a mod to do it wouldn't work well since it'll be a work in progress. I'd be bugging a mod every day and I'm sure that wouldn't win me any friends.

Foo.

Wait until the FAQ is done (ready to officially post), and then indicate where the A NAMEs should be, and then have them do it all at once.

Or, bother Anno to include a limited HTML engine for our posts...

PS: Mods like it when you bother them. It gives them a feeling of job satisfaction and of being helpfull and needed... :wink:

I would wait until it was done but that's probably years.
