UBBCode™ 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. You can use UBBCode™ even if HTML is not enabled for the forum you are using. You may want to use UBBCode™ as opposed to HTML, even if HTML is enabled for your forum, because there is less coding required and it is safer to use (incorrect coding syntax will not lead to as many problems).
All current UBB Code options are listed below.
[url=http://www.infopop.com]infopop.com[/url] [url]http://www.infopop.com[/url]
For automatic hyperlinking, notice that you can either use the complete http:// address or shorten it to the www domain. If the site does not begin with "www", you must use the complete "http://" address. Also, you may use https and ftp URL prefixes in auto-link mode (when UBBCode™ is ON).
When using the URL UBBCode, the UBBCode™ automatically generates a hyperlink to the URL that is encased. It will also ensure that the link is opened in a new window when the user clicks on it. Note that the "http://" part of the URL is completely optional. Also note that you should NOT use quotation marks inside the URL tag.
[email]info@test5324566.com[/email]
In the example above, the UBBCode™ automatically generates a hyperlink to the email address that is encased.
Hello, [b]James[/b] : BOLD Hello, [i]Mary[/i] : ITALICS
Unordered, bulleted list:
[list] [*] This is the first bulleted item. [*] This is the second bulleted item. [/list]
This produces:
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]
[img]http://www.infopop.com/artwork/footer_logotype.gif[/img]
In the example above, the UBBCode™ automatically makes the graphic visible in your message. Note: the "http://" part of the URL is REQUIRED for the [img] code. Also note: some UBB forums may disable the [img] tag support to prevent objectionable images from being viewed.
[QUOTE]Ask not what your country can do for you.... ask what you can do for your country.[/QUOTE]
In the example above, the UBBCode™ automatically blockquotes the text you reference.
[CODE] #!/usr/bin/perl print "Content-type: text/html "; print "Hello World!"; [/CODE]
print "Content-type: text/html "; print "Hello World!"; [/CODE]
You must not use both HTML and UBBCode™ to do the same function. Also note that the UBBCode™ is not case-sensitive (thus, you could use [URL] or [url]).
