Don't worry, I've backed up the entire website onto ZIP yesterday, so worst comes to worst, we lose like five posts.
This is all in an effort to constantly improve OSY for you, the loyal OSY members!
One little fix I've already put in: if you click on the "jump to forum" thingy at the bottom, it no longer overwrites the frame at the top. I know, I know, nobody ever goes to the "Pegasus" or "Jeremy" sections of this website, but one day they will, and we'll be ready. ;)

(of course, I'll have to put the <pre> tags back into the code before this works....)

I thought they would do something ret4rded like encompass the whole lot in a 1 cell table. That si dum.
Congratufirckinlations! :) (doesn't work on the reply page though. That likely doesn't matter though, as it's all left aligned.)

I have to go find wherever the fuck it was that the <code> tag is translated and put back the <pre> tag inside, to preserve whitespace, now that line wrapping isn't a big deal.
Still, I did accomplish something! And it took me about half an hour! Take that, Infopop!
Incidentally, iKonboard is going "professional" with version 2 development scheduled to stop after the release of 2.2. They will focus on 3.0 and up, with "lite" versions for free and "pro" versions for, well, not free. I think I will be sticking with 2.x, given what I've seen about how difficult it is to mod and hack 3.0, and the fact that it requires MySQL, which I really don't want to have to fuck with. Sure, text files might be crap in terms of speed, but if one bit flips, the most you will lose is a thread, whereas with a freeware database and application, if there are bugs.. whoo boy!
I mean, I can go back and revive threads from last year, and it's no big deal. Infopop now automatically locks threads that are inactive for more than 30 days, because it was fucking things up so much. Oh well.

Preserving spacing is cool isn't it?

I can't make the words wrap in <pre> tags, though. I tried this in a blank page in my browser.. the <pre> tag simply turns word wrapping off. That's part of IE, I can't change that.

I don't even think HTML between <pre>'s is supposed to render.
"pre" says "switch to a monospace font and honour whitespace". That's all. So if you have newlines, it inserts them, if you have multiple spaces, it doesn't elide them. Normal HTML (and XML) will elide any amount of whitespace into a single space. "pre" says "don't do that".

Then why doesn't it word wrap?
[code]
#include <stdio.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
printf("Hoo-rah");
} /* main */
[/code]
See, that's perfect. And if I had a 90 char line of code, it should be 90 chars wide in the browser window, because linebreaks mean something to the compiler in most languages, and you don't want a board to randomly mess with your codie bits. :)
BTW: the board thinks that ") should be a wink. In short, bah.

I can take out the " ) one though.

I think the Reply page is fixed too. It looks a little weird in parts but it does the job.

My next adventure... a forum poll hack. It's big, I need to back up the board again first before attempting it.

That means both keeping the whitespace that's there, and not inserting more whitespace.
You want lines to wrap in code blocks? You'll have to break 'em yourself.
