Here is a brief explanation of some of the questions you may have about WWWBoard.

• Can I use html tags anywhere in my posts?
• Why are there colons in the message section when I try post a followup?
• Why didn't my post show up?
• Where can I get the scripts for this program?

Can I put html tags anywhere in my posts?

No. You can not use HTML tags in any field except body of the message.

We have set this wwwboard up to Allow Hypertext in the body of the message...
I tried to set up a View before posting modification... I had problems... maybe later.

We would prefer if you did not use this option.. Unless you know what you are doing..

Prepare your message ahead of time, and test it on your browser.. Then you MUST REMOVE ALL Carriage Returns!! Or it will be spaced out!
If you did all of this and it still doesn't work.. try again and I will delete the duplicates... (this is a hassle though.. we will see how it works)

Why are there colons in the message when I try to post a followup?

Colons appear in the message dialog box when you try to followup up on a message to indicate that those lines are quoting the previous document. The owner of the WWWBoard can decide whether they wish to enable or disable the quoting of previous messages.

We have enabled Quoting.

Why didn't my post show up?

Your post most likely did not show up, because your browser did not reload the page, it simply pulled it out of cache. Please reload your browser and it should then appear.

Where can I get the scripts for this program?

The scripts are written in Perl and created by Matt Wright. They are free to anyone who wishes to use them and you can get them as well as other scripts at: http://worldwidemart.com/scripts/. Enjoy!
