Wow I was looking for this.

Thanks Loam we miss you at the Opera.

Great work you compiled here niely.

S&F

Very very excellent. Thank you so much for your time, and for thinking about those of us who are still trying to figure everything out.

im placing my bold taxt and i should be all set.

A Guide to BBCode on ATS




I got them to work so this needs to be "updated"

For quotes " you would use the following without spaces

& q u o t ;

For apostrophes ' again without spaces Those can be used within the color brackets.

& a p o s ;


I'd "Love" for this to work and so it does

Does this only work in an alternate reality?

Here's what I'm seeing Screen capture ( PC XP IE8)......................................



I don't see an apostrophe. I was puzzled by it in issues thread where it was supposed to have been resolved.

Try refreshing your screen or restarting your browser. Also how long ago was that screen shot taken?

There is no quotations nor apostrophes in this sentence though that's what we had to figure out how to do it.

Hey S69, I am @ home now.

It reads correct, but I'm on my Macbook w/ Safari. I'll check back tomorrow @ work.

Totally bizarre.

But you rock regardless. Quite impressive.

Anybody know how to do foreign language stuff on ATS, i.e. what works for the tilde (man~ana), and you know, the accent mark (the apostrophe works at the end of the word ("nacio'") but not in the middle ("Cato'lica"))...and then French grave, circonflex aigu, and then umlauts, foreign currency symbols, et cetera...Is there a list somewhere of what code works on ATS for like this?
Thanks in advance.
(Oh, yeah, and plus maybe how to embed other types of video besides youtube, google, ATS ...for example I was wanting to embed a video from USTREAM and I did not even know how to try...)
But yeah also thanks to loam for this thread, before I read this I did not know how to do anything, and now I know how to do at least five things ..." And I am so much better now Doctor "

I think you have to use the HTML names for those, like á for á.

You can see them all here.

I've had moderate success with the foreign characters by just copy/pasting.

Lots of the symbols can be found at Google sites, for example....entire words and phrases, ready-to-go, as it were!

For what it's worth. This looked OK at home on MacBook Pro with Safari.

Here is what I get at on my work computer. Big mofo Alienware. XP SP3
IE Ver 8.0/ No other issues.



Not that it matters but......

Yes, it also appears like that on my computer in IE7 (Windows Vista).

As I have been using Opera (the browser I use the most) I was seeing things fine. Apparently only IE shows it like that (I tried Opera, Firefox, Safari and Chrome).

Edit: let's try it without the colour tag.

Edit 2: yes, it looks like IE does not translate the &‍apos; into '

[edit on 21/8/2009 by ArMaP]

From a quick Internet search it looks like the &‍apos; and other related ways of coding some characters are only for XHTML and not HTML, and IE does not recognise those codes.

Yeah I see the same thing with IE but not with chrome or Firefox which are the two I use.
