Title: oh crap! administrator read!
Post by: Stealth on September 18, 2002, 04:46:38 pm
gaaah, an0n said HTML worked in these boards, so i was trying to do a 'text box' and a 'submit' button...and this is the result...


http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,10112.0.html

i think it screwed up the whole thread!!!!!  Can an admin try to fix this cause i don't know what to do

could you perhaps edit my post and remove the code?

Heh, I managed this once by trying to use IFRAME - best idea is to find the "Edit" link in the source and paste it into the address bar and then fix things.

the whole rest of the page source code is trapped in the textarea... smooth

thats unfixable, unless you execute a few sql queries to change the post, otherwise its fux0red.

Actually I just thought of a quicker solution. Im not exactly sure, but i think there is an administrative option to ban a user and delete all posts associated with them. That would definatly fix ... many problems.

yeah yeah, i'm sorry :(

I won't do it again i promise :D
I'd have examined the code in the textbox, but i didn't have time to find the 'edit' link in it... i had to go to work.

i guess i'm the first one to break a thread :D  And at the same time i succeeded in doing the coolest thing in the history of HLP :p just kidding

Sorry Shrike, it seemed a good idea at the time, and i was testing what WOULD have been my signiture in my post.

Thanks for fixing it... :)

1)  Yeah i know the whole rest of the page source code is trapped in the text area... genius

2)  it's not unfixable you dork, you can simply EDIT the post and change it :doh: .... i would have done that, but i didn't have time to go through the thing and find it (i would've copied it into microsoft word (the contents of the textbox) and then searched for "edit") (i had to go to work) so i let an admin know. At the same time, let this be a lesson to all to never do what i did ;7 :D

:rolleyes: One of these days you should try posting a positive post for once.
Oh, wait, you already have- only you tried to pass it off as me editing the post to praise my own idea. :doubt:

Meh. I killed one thread too. Someone posted a big smiley with some HTML tags, and I don't know how to use HTML, and I copied that but made it much bigger than that big was.
 
The thread didn't work after that.
 

*runs*

LOL - as a matter of fact, I didn't even read the rest of this thread, just went to the screwed thread to see what happened. But as luck would have it, I ended up fixing it using the exact same url as you supplied - I just figured it out myself. :p

Haven't you seen that siggy that says "I demand unfettered access to HTML in my siggy"? HTML is not allowed in siggys, so there. :p
