Apparently no one has a clue. Amazing how the supposed "programers" jsut dont know. I'll tell you why the forced block is not good:
1 - My users are knuckleheads and like to display background images on their posts for uniqueness and creativity
2 - My users embed audio clips in the posts which is VERY funny to hear when you read a post.
3 - The BODY TAG feature does nothing to UBB. It simply overr-rides the existing BODY tag which only affects the layout of that particular topic (not the entire website).
SOMEONE has to have a clue. For me to find it and disable it would not say much for the creators of UBB who cant seem to locate the block.
Posting the answer here would not cause any security issues at all since its editing a file that no one has access to. Any dummy knows that hacking ANY cgi file related to UBB could kill it totally. If someone knows and doesnt want to post just email me or request me to email you.
