    HTML in blogs

    Would it be possible to enable HTML in blog posts? I think the formatting would be enhanced by the ability to format material into tables - i.e. offsetting images to the side, presenting statistics - unless there is a way to do that in UBB, but I wasn't able to find a method for that.

    Michael, that is considered just about the quickest and surest way to invite hackers into your database that you can devise. Allowing html on forums is a huge no-no and a major security risk.

    About the best solution I can offer for that type of data is to put it in an Excel file and attach it to the post.

    Well, one could screenshot an excel and post it as an image also I guess.

    If you got your Gallery works linking again.

    Really, though, I think you should switch to all HTML. Make it like the Tet Offensive. Flush the hackers out into the open and finish them off like the Viet Cong were eliminated in 1968. Or somefink.

    No good?
