New Sticky for iPhone Programming Forum: [ CODE ] tags

[dejo]

Can we add a Sticky to the iPhone Programming forum requesting users to please enclose code snippets in the [ CODE ] tags? It just makes comprehension so much easier for those of us trying to respond. Thanks.

Seems like a reasonable suggestion, I'll add one when I get on a computer.

As a coder myself, please report any posts that need code, html, php, etc tags and I'd be more than happy to insert them in. It makes the code so much easier to read and understand!

Sticky created here:

Posting code, please use the

 tags[/URL]

Hopefully that covers the points you want, if not PM me or post here and I'll address them.

Perfect! Thank you so much!

Is there a way we can disable BBCode from being processed when they are in the code tags?

You should be able to use the [plain] tags.

With [plain] tags:

[plain][URL="www.donotparsethis.com"]Example[/URL][/plain]

Without:

[URL="www.donotparsethis.com"]Example[/URL]

Would it be possible to enable that by default?

Possibly I'll have to ask those who know.

Is it a common problem with posting code that items get parsed by vBulletin when they shouldn't?

Is it beneficial in all/majority of cases to have the items not parsed?

-setValue:(NSObject *)foo forKey:(NSString *)bar;)

-setValue:(NSObject *)foo forKey:(NSString *)bar;)

-setValue:(NSObject *)foo forKey:(NSString *)bar;)

Ah - it already appears to work pretty well... This seems to have already been fixed 😛.

I'd say so.

I sometimes like to use BBCode within the [code] tag, to put emphasis on something.
