Hello,

I was wondering if there is a way to filter characters out a text.
example: the text is "24/7", and I want to filter "/". How do I do this?

Here's another way:

Your way it almost the same, only you have used more lines... If you replace the %P variable with the value of it, you have the same code... Smile

Different strokes for different folks!

My way uses one more lne of code, but the way my mind works mine is easier to read, for me that is.

You're right there. I sometimes want to make code to complicated...

One of the many ideas that I have about programming is to not only make it as useful as possible, but to make it so I can read the script to be able to see what it is doing. One bad habit of mine is that I do not use alot of comments in my source code, because of that, I had to adapt my programming to adjust for that.

Hey? Who added that long line to my post??? Or am I going mad? Neutral

LOL, I did. Laughing

On some browsers (mine for instance) code displays
with line breaks within the code tags. You can remedy
this by adding an unbroken underscore long enough
to make your longest line of code stay on one line.

Tommy had fixed that before the board upgrade,
I don't know if he'll do this one or not.

I think it is easy to fix that. Just add a long line with the backgroundcolor as textcolor to the post, everytime the CODE tag will be used. That way you don't see it, but it will still be there...

Oops... Doesn't work like it should be, because that long line will also disable the breakoff of normal text, like this long, long line.... Crying or Very sad

I don't know how he did it, but it only made the post
as wide as needed. An arbitrary line length as you
suggested would prolly be too long or too short most
of the time.

Here's an old announcement for the line fix. We used
it until Tommy modified the board.

The text outside the code tags didn't break after
his fix either. Ya just hafta use the ENTER key...
