NEW! You can now have true hyperlinks using the [url] code. Just use the following format:

UltimateBB.com
In the examples above, the UBB Code automatically generates a hyperlink to the URL that is encased. It will also ensure that the link is opened in a new window when the user clicks on it. Note that the "http://" part of the URL is completely optional. In the second example above, the URL will hypelink the text to whatever URL you provide after the equal sign. Also note that you should NOT use quotation marks inside the URL tag.

Email Links
To add a hyperlinked email address within your message, just encase the email address as shown in the following example (UBB Code is in red).

[email protected]
In the example above, the UBB Code automatically generates a hyperlink to the email address that is encased.

Bold and Italics
You can make italicized text or make text bold by encasing the applicable sections of your text with either the or tags.

Hello, James
Hello, Mary
Bullets/Lists
You can make bulleted lists or ordered lists (by number or letter).
Unordered, bulleted list:

• This is the first bulleted item.
  
• This is the second bulleted item.
  

This produces:

This is the first bulleted item.
This is the second bulleted item.
Note that you must include a closing [/list] when you end each list.
Making ordered lists is just as easy. Just add either

or [LIST=1]. Typing [List=A] will produce a list from A to Z. Using [List=1] will produce numbered lists.

Here's an example:

[list=A]


1. This is the first bulleted item.
   
2. This is the second bulleted item.
   

This produces:

This is the first bulleted item.
This is the second bulleted item.

Adding Images
To add a graphic within your message, just encase the URL of the graphic image as shown in the following example (UBB Code is in red).

In the example above, the UBB Code automatically makes the graphic visible in your message. Note: the "http://" part of the URL is REQUIRED for the [img] code. Also note: some UBB forums may disable the [img] tag support to prevent objectionable images from being viewed.

Quoting Other Messages
To reference something specific that someone has posted, just cut and paste the applicable verbiage and enclose it as shown below (UBB Code is in red).

quote:

---

Ask not what your country can do for you....
ask what you can do for your country.

---

code:

---

#!/usr/bin/perl 
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n"; 
print "Hello World!"; 

---

In the example above, the UBB Code automatically blockquotes the text you reference and preserves the formatting of the coded text.

Of Note
You must not use both HTML and UBB Code to do the same function. Also note that the UBB Code is not case-sensitive (thus, you could use [URL] or [url]).
Incorrect UBB Code Usage:

[url] www.prime-web.com [/url] - don't put spaces between the bracketed code and the text you are applying the code to.

[email][email protected][email] - the end brackets must include a forward slash ([/email])

seriously though,you can check out what people write by hitting edit on their post. it has the code right there. the board adds some shit but you can get the idea after reading that book above. hehe. good luck.
