Formatting posts

[nighthunter]

<p>Ok, so I am really happy that a lot of the issues with the forums are being fixed but I still have an issue. When I either type up a new post with multiple formats or multiple colors when I hit submit is messes everything up. Example...</p><div align="center"><b><u>This is centered, underlined and bold</u></b> <div align="left"><span style="color: #cc3300">This is left justified and in red</span> <div align="center"><b><span style="color: #6699ff">This is centered, bold and in color</span></b><b></b></div>Now when I hit submit the bold, color and underline seem to stay fine but the justify will randomly change along with the blank line spaces. Is anyone else seeing this? I have tried typing directly as a post, typing the post up first in notepad then editing and typing it up in word getting the post the way I want it to look and pasting it into a post and all three will do the exact same thing. </div>Now see its doing the same thing with this post, this paragraph and the one above is set to left justify but when I submit it, it changed to center justify. </div>

Yep, everyone's experiencing the same thing.  I've had this problem a few times myself, and finally gave up on trying to get the centered text (which should have been left-aligned) underneath the centered text (that I wanted to stay centered) to behave after maybe half a dozen edits.  Frustrating, yes...not sure if it'd be considered a deal-breaker, though, so it's probably not a priority on the forum "to-do" list.  <img src="/smilies/136dd33cba83140c7ce38db096d05aed.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

<p>The WYSIWYG editor's been glitchy at least since the changes to the Forums that coincided with EoF being released. They switched forum software, among other things. At least before we could edit the raw HTML to clean up any problems.</p><p>The editor seems to freak out more often when you have more than one attributed assigned to a block of text at a time. I had problems when I had two headings that only had color, size, link applied to them. The first would be fine, while the second would randomly lose an attribute or two. Never bothered to try and figure out the conditions under which it happens, as I've got other windmills to tilt at at the moment.</p><p>You're not imagining things though, the editor will eat formatting under certain (common) conditions.</p>

It is a known issue, Can't give a firm date when it will come down the pipe but its definitely on the list.

Ok, I can live with that then. I dont do a lot of posts that have multiple justifications etc. Heck I think I am the only person who posts on our guild page anymore. Thanks for the information.
