Percent sign

[Reef Pets]

When posting I can not use the % sign. It shows as a bunch of numbers and letters. I always have to edit the post then it works fine.
It seems to work fine in the public forum but not in the sponsors section.

[Triggerman77]

[Reef Pets]

Edit: no it did not! I used the percent sign as shown above and as you can see its %

 

[Triggerman77]

[Triggerman77]

It is a glitch in the Vbulletin software from what I can gather....A few dartfrog boards that use the same software as R2R it does the samething.....From what I have read on these boards there is no fix for it yet other then edit......

ha ha ha lol!!

:bigsmile: Then I had to edit because it did not work...

 

[Triggerman77]

it worked fine for me in post #4 i did not edit it it just worked

 

[Reef Pets]

I get the same results, sometimes it works and sometimes it does not. From what Azurel said, guess we will have to get use to spelling it.

From elsewhere: Its not a bug with the software, it is your server not having iconv installed. Contact your host and ask them to recompile php with iconv support.

Temp fix: Use "Go Advanced" when posting replies and editing.

What's weird is pictures break if posting multiple pics, but don't break if you only post one image. I just posted the following with no issue

[ IMG ]http :/ /i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy169/brianthebraden/Zs % 20and % 20Ps/ApolloZoas.jpg[/ IMG ]

added a bunch of spaces to show the code hopefully, has two percent signs but didn't break when posting.


Edit: to fix the first percent sign
