Q. What do all of those buttons do that I see in the post reply box?
A. They will provide you with Universal Bulletin Board Code tags (front and back) with the word TEXT inside them. Delete the word 'TEXT', and replace it with whatever you want to display in the style selected.
The next three buttons, , , and will be discussed in their very own thread. They all deal with the use of tables in a post.
Please note that on this Forum the images for generating the code to add a column and add a row have been swapped, so that their appearance matches the code they generate.

The tags generated are incomplete, and require the addition of the equal sign '=' and gooroosgruntz.proboards26.com (for example) before the first ']' character.
