Summary

Analyze keywords

BBCode tags is a method used by many forums to add structure to a post. This small plugin make it easier to add BBCode tags by enclosing the selection in a tag or prompt for additional tag parameters like the color to use.

vBulletin adds additional tags, they are included.

Markdown as defined on the project page by John Gruber is included.

A subset of the HTML tags is included.

You access the extension by right-clicking in a form while constructing the post.

When a prompt is asked a valid responds is the empty responds. The result can be different for empty responses.

If nothing is selected, the caret is positioned at the location where the selected text would have been placed.

If there is a selection, it will be part of the result, and the whole result is selected, for a possible next tag enclosure.

Сто баллов, те кто пишет не работет, даже не понимают для чего это расширение, ибо оно работает как и заявлено автором!

Не Edit by Erosman, но тоже неплохо. Не работает функционал кастомных тэгов, нет синонимов (т. е. отображение в меню не тэгов, а произвольных слов).

Choosing Custom from the menu does nothing. Thus ext. can be useful, however, unlike BBCodeXtra I find no way to actually create custom scripts, which is about all I used BBCodeXtra for with extensive scripts. This not only enables you to format texts all at once in text boxes but it vastly increases functionality. Nor is there any way to export and import custom scripts. If I could only find where to add coding to the the file where bbCodeInsert store its codes then maybe I could add what I have from BBCodeXtra. (Firefox legacy spoiled us, as no browser matches the scope of customization its extensions offered). Thanks anyway for work work and for what it does. Grace and peace thru Jesus the Lord.
