Forum Post Formatter

Can anyone suggest a website similar to http://www.theofficialbellybuttonforum.com ?

This site is excellent for Imagevenue users for setting up a large image post before making the actual post but it's down, are there any similar sites out there?

Code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">

<html>
<head>
	<title>SpacerMaker</title>
</head>
<script>

function addspaces()
	{
	
	var outputvalue = "";
	var elm = document.getElementById("input");
	var	value = elm.value;
	elm.value = "";
	
	// remove linebreaks 
	for (var i = 0; i < value.length; i++)
		{
		if (value.charCodeAt(i) != "10" &&  value.charCodeAt(i) != "13" ) outputvalue +=value.charAt(i)
		}
	
	// insert spacers
	
	if (outputvalue.indexOf('[URL') >-1 ) outputvalue = outputvalue.replace(/\[\/URL\]/g, '[/URL] ')	
	else outputvalue = outputvalue.replace(/\[\/url\]/g, '[/url] ')		
		
	elm = document.getElementById("output");
	elm.value = outputvalue;
	
	}



</script>

<body>

	
<textarea id="input" style="width:400px; height:400px;"></textarea>
<a href="javascript:addspaces()" >Add Spaces</a>
<textarea id="output" style="width:400px; height:400px;"></textarea>
<br><br>
<strong>howto:</strong> insert original bbcode into the left textbox, click "Add spaces" and copy the result from the right box into your post.
</body>
</html>

copy code, paste to textfile, store as *.html, open in browser, set a bookmark. works with all hosts providing bbcode usable in our forum

it removes all linebreaks and adds a space between each image. this way your post will place as many images in one line as possible without destroying the VEF post layout.

if you're using noscript or similar tools you have to whitelist this helper.

How do you save as html? With notepad I just get two options *txt or all files.

**hos** · August 2nd, 2013, 04:24 PM

in save file dialog select "all files" and enter the file suffix by hand

myhtmlfile.html

or whatever you like to call it

you can also save as *.txt and rename the suffix later in windows explorer, but here you need to disable the hiding of suffixes for known file types (if hide suffixes is enabled in your system, check explorer menu->extras->folder options->view to change it).

Excellent, when it's explained even an idiot like me can use it.

I'll give it a try when I next post a set of model pics.

I think we'll keep this thread in Help for useful info. Cheers

I just use Notepad. I use IIIUploader to load the images to IV, copy the links to a Notepad file and add any text I want. UBB posting codes are simple enough I can just type them in if I want to use them. This also allows me to save the posts for re-use later if I want.
