newly created SMF articles all messed up when using disccusbot

« on: February 23, 2007, 05:41:33 PM »

Hi all

I hope someone could assist me with this one. Most of my website has some standard HTML formatting in the content (tables, lists, bold / italics, etc). I installed discussbot, and the moment I click the link to make a disccussion, it creates it ok - so far, so good. But, most articles are misformed. Instead of parsing the HTML formatting code, it prints it out on the forum, thus creating a mess.

The link below is a sample of what the content looks like on my website:
http://www.softdux.com/web_hosting/linux_hosting_packages.html

And the following link, is the content created in SMF:
http://forum.softdux.com/index.php?topic=81.msg88;topicseen#msg88

I'm running:
Joomla 1.0.12
SMF 1.1.1
JSMF 2.0.2
Discusbot 2.0.1

First off, the example link is set to registered so noone can view it.

Unfortunately the discussbot isn't some full featured library to translate all html to BBcode. If you are cutting and pasting advanced (X)HTML it might fail as it appears it has for you. Not sure what all the slide references are, but I doubt you would be able to do that in bbcode anyways.

Ok, here's another one:

http://forum.softdux.com/index.php?topic=83.msg90;topicseen#msg90

I hear what you're saying about the XHMTL, but HTML table code is / should be standard, right?

th is not handled, h# with styling is not handled either. That is the problem with that article. I'll add some of those but you don't have power to add styling to individual tags in bbcode.
