Using HTML
You may not use HTML in your posts. For information on how to post links and enhance your text see the BB Code section below.
Using BB Code
BBCode is a variation on the HTML tags you may already be familiar with. Basically, it allows you to add functionality or style to your message that would normally require HTML.

URL Hyperlinking
Simply type the complete URL in the following manner and the hyperlink will be created automatically (BBCode is in red )

[url] www.myURL.com [/url]
Embedding - Soundcloud and Youtube
Simply copy the track or video url you want to embed and paste into the appropriate tag - the audio or video player will be embedded automatically (BBCode is in red )

[soundcloud] http://soundcloud.com/harderfaster/the-harderfasterf-net-414-takeover-magnetix-vs-firesky [/soundcloud]
[youtube] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddhpOmwxbmk [/youtube]
Email Links
To add a hyperlinked email address within your message, just encase the email address as shown in the following example (BBCode is in red ).

[email] billg@microsoft.com [/email]

In the example above, the BBCode automatically generates a hyperlink to the email address that is encased.

Bold and Italics
You can make italicized text or make text bold by encasing the applicable sections of your text with either the [b] [/b] or [i] [/i] tags.

Hello, [b] James [/b]
Hello, [i] Mary [/i]
Bullets/Lists
You can make bulleted lists or ordered lists (by number or letter).

Unordered, bulleted list:

[list]
[*] This is the first bulleted item.
[*] This is the second bulleted item.
[/list]

This produces:

  • This is the first bulleted item.
  • This is the second bulleted item.
Note that you must include a closing [/list] when you end each list.

Making ordered lists is just as easy. Just add either [LIST=A] or [LIST=1]. Typing [List=A] will produce a list from A to Z. Using [List=1] will produce numbered lists.

Here's an example:

[list=A]
[*] This is the first bulleted item.
[*] This is the second bulleted item.
[/list]

This produces:

  1. This is the first bulleted item.
  2. This is the second bulleted item.
Adding Images
Images may be added to your messages by one of these two methods: (BBCode is in red ).

[img] http://www.microsoft.com/homepage/gif/bnr-microsoft.gif [/img]

In the example above, the BBCode automatically generates an embedded image in your message.

The other way to include an image is to upload it to the site directly from your computer. At the bottom of the text box where you can type your message there is a an 'Upload Image' section. Use this to browse for the file on your PC and upload it.

Quoting Other Messages
To reference something specific that someone has posted, just cut and paste the applicable verbiage and enclose it as shown below (BBCode is in red ).

[QUOTE] Ask not what your country can do for you....
ask what you can do for your country. [/QUOTE]

In the example above, the BBCode automatically blockquotes the text you reference.

Code Tag
Similar to the Quote tage, the Code tag adds some <PRE> tags to preserve formatting. This useful for displaying programming code, for instance.

[CODE] #!/usr/bin/perl

print 'Content-type: text/html ';
print 'Hello World!'; [/CODE]

In the example above, the BBCode automatically blockquotes the text you reference and preserves the formatting of the coded text.


Note that the BBCode is not case-sensitive (thus, you could use [URL] or [url] ).

Incorrect BBCode Usage:

[url] www.myURL.com [/url] - don't put spaces between the bracketed code and the text you are applying the code to.

[email] billg@microsoft.com [email] - the end brackets must include a forward slash ( [/email] )
