WTF! Some Users have weired not converted x html break tags in their postings(
) ...and I have completely N O idea how to remove that **** , perhaps one of you has the same error with this, that error really sux!

Post a URL.
What hacks do you have installed?

I am sorry , I cannot give out the URL, however, I have smashed the whole code with 100000000 of premade hacks and 1000000000 of small little changes in the code, and I found now a code block which seems to convert the break tags, BUT in fact is does not, it is so weired, because of that I need more information about this conversation,

one more info: these break tags... they are saved like this: <br /> in the forum .cgi files. I hope this give you a bit more help.

that doesn't help at all...

I think I know what you mean... You didn't use a WYSIWYG, did you?

Try to do it with UltraEdit/Noted/Notepad/whatever.

Hm I do not think that the board members do that on purpose...
Is there a possibiliy to convert the "<br />"-Type back to n or br ?

got more info, so I tested and tested and ... this happens on editiing a post.

File: ubb_edit_post.cgi
sub routine: edit_post
has to to with the $message variable and &CheckCoding and &prep_for_edit.

Got it now! This happens EXACTLY when I make a single 'new line' (only one)
like this
1
2

if I make two 'new lines' (twice) like that
1

2

it does not appear in editiing....

hm I do not supppose that you know where the error is?

yeah, just found it out on myself just had to add simple at the beginning of subroutine pre_for_edit: $_[0] =~ s/
/n/isg;

Now everything seems to be obiously but there I a lot you have to think about before you get it to work!
