Why forum use instead of <b>
Is there for security issue ?
Why forum use [B] instead of <b>
It could use <b> too, or {b}, or $b$ etc.
As to why "bbcode" is used as opposed to HTML/XHTML, that would be to avoid having to deal with mailicious code injection, and/or to gain specific control over what the user can use.
thank for the reply laserlight
