Posting Code

Rich57 · #1 (**permalink**) May 29th, 2008, 07:27 AM

I'm puzzled about how to post code in these forums. There is a code button on the Format toolbar (marked #) and I have used this to surround my ASP.NET source code, but the page width goes crazy and I have to scroll massively to read the post. All previous and following posts are also affected.
My Screensize drop-down is set to 800x600 and the Format Mode is Basic.
I use Firefox v2 browser and the window width is usually set to 1200-1300px.
Any advice please?

Hi there,

You need to add line breaks manually; the idea is that the code blocks mark pieces of text as code in order to avoid line wrapping, which can be a major issue in line-break sensitive languages like VB.

Cheers,
