<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>It's a feature, not a bug...</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br><br>At any rate, it's not a dark conspiracy against individual posters by the overlords of EZBoard.

Just something to keep in mind. And if you spend a lot of time on a comment, consider editing it somewhere else, and saving it frequently.<br> <p></p><i></i>

Thanks for the nuts-and-bolts assistance in dealing with this feature.<br><br>Much appreciated. <br><br>I have saved some stuff that wouldn't post and it seems that adding the bold and italics and underlining has ezboard's software inserting its own characters that it then rejects.<br><br>And to that I can only repeat 'WTF?':rolleyes <p></p><i></i>
