[SOLVED] Using html tags in threads

[Chaser27]

I think it would be nice to be able to use a few html tags in a post to clean it up a little.

for example:
Instead of

1. Ordered list 1

• Ordered list 1, Unordered 1
• Ordered list 1, Unordered 2

1. Ordered list 2

Allow a user to type in their own and have it render:
<ol>
<li>Ordered list 1</li>
<ul>
<li>Ordered list 1, Unordered 1</li>
<li>Ordered list 1, Unordered 2</li>
</ul>
<li>Ordered list 2</li>
</ol>

Also, instead of posting every link, allow <a> tags. The user can hover to see the link anyway. I was trying to put a supply list on a how-to and would have preferred it to look like EX with each think clickable:

1. Car Shampoo
2. Buckets w/ Grit Guards
3. Wash mitt
4. etc.

instead of

Car Shampoo
<link fjdkafldk;ajfkdlsjafdklsa;fjdklsafvdnkslaf;dmnsklafsvcmdsa;lvckjdsam'djsalkf;djfdkls;ajfdk'fkldsafj;dsaf>

Buckets...
<link afjkdla;cvndwaio;vcneisavnlkdcksla;gdska;vnkdfsvakl;djansmkvcldm;salcvijdns;afdhsgldk;sa>

etc.

It is sometimes easier to just add your own <em>Italics</em> or <strong>Bold</strong> tags instead of having to click a button, too

Nevermind. Figured out how to do it with BB codes. I just have to constantly remind myself it's different.
