Topic: Text filetring for this forum

I've noticed double quotes in text are simply not accepted by this forum.

I guess it is too simple (basic) PHP processing of entered text, but in any case - forgetting this for a moment made me loose quite some minutes of typing in last couple of days (when you hit 'Submit topic', everything after the first double quote is simply cut away). Of course I haven't typed everything again after, as I was sooo angry about...

I believe today it is a lot of decent SW available, which could handle not only double quotes, but also some formatting (as a 'code' tag, for example) - to make things better visible.

Is it too much to ask to make a small improvement about that? ;-)

I think you should claim to pubBB development team, as we are not the authors of forum script. We prefer to spent time on FA improvement, rather than saving the world from such critical issues in third party applications wink.

What about some other - a bit more capable - platform?  By the way - where have you found this punBB at all?!  ;-)
