I got into a real mess trying to use a saved draft.
Codebox stuff out the wazoo, in and out of my simple Help request.
Hope this helps your diagnosis.
You should also describe your exact work process... if I look at this:
https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=76&t=73586 , I see
<br> tags (among others):
Code: Select all
<r>I have a bunch of simple hotkeys to insert commonly used text. No easy way to insert an em-dash so I tried AutoHotKey. Got strange results: [b]—[/b]<br/>
<br/>
Using the numeric Unicode finally worked.<br/>
<CODEBOX codebox="autohotkey" file="Untitled.ahk"><s>[Codebox=autohotkey file=Untitled.ahk]</s><i>
</i>^#e::
; ;; Control Window e yields an EM DASH: —
SendInput, {U+2014}
Return
^#g::
; ;; Control Window g yields — (Crap instead of an EM DASH)
SendInput, —
Return
<e>[/Codebox]</e></CODEBOX>
So why won't the em-dash itself insert like any other bunch of text?<br/>
<br/>
Windows 1909, 64-bit, x86<br/>
AutoHotKey 1.1.32.00</r>
These are used in HTML, not in BBCode. Did you insert them yourself? If yes, don't do it. Just use the tags that are also provided in the forum editor via buttons.
Or did you somehow save your draft in HTML format yourself instead of using the built-in 'Save draft' function of the editor?
I actually don't think that those
<r>,
<s> or
<e> tags will be created by the forum editor - and it doesn't look like our HTML source code either. I've used the forum editor's
Save draft function regularly, but never encountered this. So, how is your process and does it also happen, if you don't use drafts?
