Please add a "preview" button to the forum poster.
Not even the forum coders themselves really understand
how to correctly insert a [link:] without having such
an option.
Same applies to postings where some ASCII formatting is
intended an the user cannot be sure how the result will
be, unless he read the forum's source code before.
So some benefit would be there for lots of users. And
the implementation might be as easy as
- add one more CGI parameter (preview="1") to posting
form
- checking it:
if (preview)
{ display posting again, now with preview="0" }
else { do posting stuff like already implemented }
