A few hours ago, I tried to 'enhance' my signature by giving it alternate text and tooltip text, and using HTML code as follows:
Code: |
<img
style="width: 675px; height: 175px;"
alt="You shouldn't have done that."
title="Get your ugly mouse cursor the fuck off of my lovely signature!"
src="http://img715.imageshack.us/img715/8606/satqn.png"> |
However, this seems to not work. Anyone wish to help?
Also, I used the Nvu HTML editor to create this code, which works with usual HTML pages.

the style attribute isn't valid for the img tag in HTML, as far as I know.
Instead, use:
width="675"
height = "175"
It automatically reads the values as pixels. You only have to specify pixels (or points) when defining a font. Otherwise, it reads the font based on preset relative sizes.

No, no, no. You're doing it wrong. I said get rid of the style attribute and replace it with what I said.
Like THIS:
Code: |
<img "width="675" height="175" alt="You shouldn't have done that." title="Get your ugly mouse cursor the fuck off of my lovely signature!" src="http://img715.imageshack.us/img715/8606/satqn.png"> |

I missed this, not sure how.
Style is absolutely a valid attribute for the IMG tag.
http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_IMG.asp
This forum parses all HTML and removes all tags that it deems "dangerous". Remember, that means tags that were dangerous when this software was created 9 years ago.
As far as I am aware, the Style attribute is not available for any HTML on any tag in PHPBB2. If it were, I assure you I would have exploited the hell out of it.

A fitting conclusion!

I've noticed that some forums (like this one) allow what appears to be limited HTML, while others, don't seem to allow any whatsoever.

Actually, wasn't that one of the tags you had me ban? Remember that thread where you put flowers and shit everywhere?

That was the full style tag.
Yeah... the RAWR page was fun.
I have not seen the style attribute available for any tags.

I figure this would be as good a thread as any to ask, but, what's the html to use to embed video? Like in Blackout's post?

You can get the code at youtube, just click on the "embed" button.
Just make sure to choose "use old embed code", the forums don't support the new stuff

Indeed... most embed/object code works. However, sometimes you need to hack it if it gets too complicated.
