Of late at times on wap the output of the bb code is not appearing but just the source code. For e.g. The url of the smiley is showing not the smiley.

That happens with me aswell...and probably everyone else.

I know that that's why I bought up the topic as it never used to happen before.

Why this happens? It would have been good if we could use smiles via wap

On HTML Light the smilies and such work but if anyone posts a web link like the one in my sig it shows the whole [url=etc.etc rather than just the words that should form the link.

that would be because the smilies display are coded in html and BB code is NOT html....... hence it will not work on html light

You phone will not understand BB code anyway so I am a bit confused why people say it did in the past. To my knowledge it NEVER did at all.... not on wap html light.

You're all missing the point. I said the smileys etc.don't , instead the source i.e. The url shows

smilies are supposed to work. It's BB code that is not supposed to work on html devices

'the output of BB code' wopuld never show on wap. The phone is not equipped to show it

Vlam, what are you talking about? Bbcode is a php replace string that will be replaced on the server, not your phone....it will work on html, wml, and all the versions in between....including html lite.

Wonder where laffen is? He's the only one capable to undertand plus solve the problem.

Why don't the [url] tags work properly on html light then?

That's what I'd like to know.
The links in your sig show the whole address as well as "Pink P800" "Purple T630" etc. if I use HTML Light.

However if I use my phone, with internal browser to view the full HTML site I see them properly as just "Pink P800" "Purple T630" and "The Brick" as active links

Laffen. . .pls reply! The problem still persists..

Not on this forum it doesn't. never has. instead it shows the users textual input... complete with [url] tags and all.
