Re: Allow the use of less than sign in forum posts

How about < 5?
How about &lt; 5?
It's not being blocked, it's just how HTML works. You can't write a < or > without writing them as &lt; and &gt;

I know that, you know that, but jeez, this site is not supposed to require knowledge of character encoding to type a message.

Life sucks. This site allows us to use HTML tags like <b>bold</b>. The forum software isn't intuitive.

Object.

So feature request to make the forum software intuitive.

FWIW this "bug" is not an issue with vbulletin.

I've used vBulletin. They have a limited HTML clone, not real HTML, and it's a pain in the ass to do anything besides text.

Here, you just code HTML. If you muck up the HTML, learn to fix it. What you're complaining about isn't a bug, it's how HTML works.

Object to making the software intuitive.
