Hi Elven,

You've hit on a point that has been bugging me for some time now. 

Often times, whether it be Joe, Limbic, myself, or whomever, whenever we insert html links to something off-site, it ends up breaking the link up into 1/2s.  One 1/2 active, the other 1/2 inactive, effectively making the link a broken link. 

Do you know of any website design tools that would make it easier for novice users to use the CoV site and insert links without this posing as a possible dilemna. 

Also, I've noticed that some posts to the email list are formatted very oddly.  Random characters are interspersed throughout the posts, or the posts are poorly formatted when they arrive at the list - making them quite difficult to read. 

Your thoughts?
Casey

My only idea on this is when we update the BBS system, we should allow some basic HTML to be displayed.  Pretty much everyone knows basic HTML, so if we go that route there shouldn't be much of a problem.

As for software... no I'm unware of anything to help formatting on things like this because I've never really had some of the odd formatting issues I've seen on some people's posts.
