    BBcode for 'strikeout'?

    The usual [s] [/s] code for strikeout doesn't appear to work on this forum.

    Is this function handled in some other way?

    Also, try as I might, I couldn't find the Help page info related to use of BBcodes here.
    Some forums have a link to that right where you post from. Did I miss something obvious?

    Edit:
    OK, found it. Under 'Go Advanced' there is a Stikeout' button.

    It uses [s.trike] [/s.trike] syntax (without full stops)

    Or you could just paint the content and click the icon.

    That works as well
    The statement below is true.
    The statement above is false.

    In the 'normal' view that I'm using the ABC box isn't visible. It appears under 'advanced'.

    Help on BBcodes isn't visible with either view.

    Not sure what you mean by "normal view". The full editor is available when we select New thread, Reply & Quote, however if we select Quick reply or Edit - the "lite" editor appears - I guess because in both cases there's not generally much need for the advanced options.

    As for BBcode help - well you just found a bug - I spent the last hour chasing down an error that gets thrown up when accessing the BBcode help page - turns out it's caused by a clash with my side columns. There's no fix apart from turning them off and that's just not an option I'm afraid - they pay the bills.

    The next VB upgrade will fix it, but it's way too unstable for me to even consider it at the moment.

    Thanks Mike.

    I must be going blind. By 'Normal' I meant New Post, Reply, Quote. And I see the ABC there. Must have been looking too closely before.

    My vote goes to stability as well...
