Heretic86 25 Report post Posted May 31, 2012 (edited) I seem to be having trouble posting scripts. Even though I am CODE tagging the scripts, the forum seems to be parsing for email addresses and changing anything with @'s and Periods into Email Addresses which dont just copy and pase right into RPG Maker. @actor_foo = "something" $game_party.actors[@actor_foo].something_else for example has @ symbols and periods in it. CODE tags need to not parse for email addresses. Any way we can fix this? Edited May 31, 2012 by Heretic86 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kellessdee 48 Report post Posted May 31, 2012 I'm not sure what you mean.... this doesn't appear to be happening on my end. I'm using Dragon Browser (Fork of Chrome, of the Webkit family). It might have to do with the way the rich text editor behaves in various browsers. I believe, though (as I mention above) that what you describe is an unfortunate side-effect of these fancy rich text editors (urls, bbcode, etc being parsed directly IN the editor, i.e. it's a feature of the forum software). Try this: 1. In the top left corner of the reply box, there is a "light-switch" icon, this toggles between formatted/non-formatted modes. 2. When you paste text into the editor, right-click and select "Paste as Plain Text." This option usually (I find) forces the editor to ignore attempting to parse the text as anything other than...well...plain text. Thanks for the report though, I'm not sure whether this is something Mark has control over (short of, switching forum software...I dunno if IPB is editable/can be modified...we'll wait for his reply) I think, in the meantime, one of these options *should* help you out. Also, out of curiosity, what browser are you using? I have similar issues to you, but never with @/. for e-mail addresses. Hope this helps, until a fix can be procured. *runs off and tries other browsers* EDIT: I managed to recreate this in Internet Explorer only, and only in some cases: actors@actor_foo.something_else # Triggers "E-mail" $game_party.actors[@actor_foo].something_else # Does not trigger "E-mail" This *could* be more of a Internet Explorer "thing" in the way it renders RTF web controls. *however*, I could be horribly incorrect, and this is just an assumption. Tried: Comodo Dragon v19.1 Google Chrome v19.0.1084.52 m Firefox v11.0 Internet Explorer v9.0.8112.16421 Turning off the "light-switch" (Rich Text mode) or Pasting as Plain Text should be a good workaround. It would be nice to see the editor stop parsing everything in the editor, if it's feasible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
