+Sensei TSKC Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 When writing logs online, I am aware that certain coding can be used to enhance the entry i.e. bolding text ([)b(])Enter text([)/b(]) removing the set of parentheses, results in: Enter text On another cache page I have seen recently, I have seen text in different colours as well as font face. Does anyone know which and what codes can be used when writing our logs online? Quote Link to comment
Deceangi Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Some BB code from a search on the forums ([)b]Bold[/b] Bold ([)s]Strike-through[/s] Strike-through ([)i]Italics[/i] Italics ([)u]Underline[/u] Underline ([)url=http://google.com]URL Link[/url] URL Link Leaving out () here in the forums it's ([)color=red] some text [/color] some text but in the logs it's [red]some text[/red]. Watch someone come along and correct me Quote Link to comment
+Sensei TSKC Posted February 28, 2007 Author Share Posted February 28, 2007 I tried the Underline code and it didn't seem to work. I'll try again later. I knew about Bold and Italic so thank you for the others. Quote Link to comment
+Haggis Hunter Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 I hope this is of help to you. I am afraid that I have copied it straight from a table so it isn't easy reading on here and the colour is repeated (which isn't required). If you want a copy just email me and I will be happy to send it to you. HOW TO APPLY THESE CODES AND COLORS HTML color codes are hexadecimal triplets representing the colors red, green, and blue. For example in the below example of the color red you can notice the color code is FF0000, which is '255' red, '0' green, and '0' blue. To change the font color add the following source code: <font color="#FF0000">Making the text color red</font> In addition with new browsers you now have the capability of changing the color by using the name such as: <font color="red">Making the text color red</font> Other ways to use these codes is within your BODY statement. This allows you to change the complete page: <BODY TEXT="#000000" LINK="red" VLINK="blue" BGCOLOR="#ffffff" > TEXT="000000" When used will display all text on page as black. LINK="#1F00FF" When used will change all links to red. VLINK="blue" When used will change all viewed links to blue. BGCOLOR="#ffffff" When used will display the page with a white background.

+Sensei TSKC Posted March 1, 2007 Author Share Posted March 1, 2007 HH, Thank you for the detailed colour codes but unfortunately, eveything listed here is for use with HTML coding and not BB code. I also believe that the online log only supports some BB codes and not all of them. I am trying to establish what that ultimate list is. Thank you anyway, the colour codes will come in handy.

+Haggis Hunter Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 (edited) The colour codes above work with BB code on the forums, for example rather than the word red use the code for red #FF0000. I don't know about logs though? Edited March 1, 2007 by Haggis Hunter Quote Link to comment

Nothing that I know of at the moment, there is a competition at the moment so there are new caches being placed, and all will hopefully be accessible by public transport? Quote Link to comment
