you will need to translate it in to html, like the fourm software dose

heres a link to a tool that can help with the tag conversion
http://hometown.aol.co.uk/JRMC137/BBCode2HTML/index.htm

and look up string.replace in the manual, eg:
strText = String.Replace(strText, "{LEFT}", "<p align=left>", false);
strText = String.Replace(strText, "{/LEFT}", "</p>", false);

strText = String.Replace(strText, "{LEFT}", "<p align=left>", false);
strText = String.Replace(strText, "{/LEFT}", "</p>", false);

where will i use the string.raplace code ??? on button click of preview button or somewhere else ???

strText = String.Replace(strText, "", "<p align=left>", false);
strText = String.Replace(strText, "", "</p>", false);


result = Input.GetText("Input1");
TextFile.WriteFromString("C:\\temp_preview.html", "<HTML>"..result.."</HTML>", false);
File.OpenURL("C:\\temp_preview.html", SW_SHOWNORMAL);


so if i have that code in preview button what else i have to do to convert "", "" to "<p align=left>", "</p>" ????
do i have to add anything to "C:\\temp_preview.html" ???

you have nothing there calling the string.replace

1st, you get the text from the input
2nd, you translate the bbcode to html
3rd, you write the translated text to the html file and preview it

like this
strText = Input.GetText("Input1");-- get the text
strText = String.Replace(strText, "", "<p align=left>", false);-- translate
strText = String.Replace(strText, "", "</p>", false);-- translate
TextFile.WriteFromString("C:\\temp_preview.html","<HTML>"..strText.."</HTML>",false);-- write the html file
File.OpenURL("C:\\temp_preview.html", SW_SHOWNORMAL);-- show the preview

do the same

strText = String.Replace(strText, "[color=", "<font color=", false);


but the last 2 should be like this to pick up on the tags that have been missed

strText = String.Replace(strText, "[", "<", false);
strText = String.Replace(strText, "]", ">", false);

strText = String.Replace(strText, "[ php]", "<? ", false);-- translate
strText = String.Replace(strText, "[ /php]", " ?>", false);-- translate

NOTICE: Remove space in the [ php] tag in your coding... the board is confused with this code in my post.
