On the profile set-up it says "allow HTML." I notice mine is turned off. I didn't know what it was so didn't allow it. I guess I should look at my computer science 101 book, but I am afraid of that book. I dropped the class after 3 months--got to chapter 3.

It's an acronym for "HyperText Markup Language". It's used to build web pages.

So do I need to have it turned on? What would I do with it? There was another one, too, BBC or something with B's in it.

I'm a good speller but that intro to computer science class had me completely lost with so many acronyms. I just could not seem to learn them. There are literally hundreds of acronyms in the computer science field.

BBCode. The "BB" stands for "bulletin board". That's the stuff that lets you format your post with colors, bold text, add quotes, smilies, etc. You do want that turned on. Learn all about it here: http://www.arizonahikers.com/forum/faq.php?mode=bbcode

You can learn all about HTML here: http://www.w3schools.com/ We have it turned off on the board because you can do many of the same things with BBCode and it's safer.

Not so quick. We're not done with you yet. HTML is an antique. Soon we will come at you with XML and XrMl. Very Happy Eek
