I've always seen phpBB as the barren wasteland of web forums - forums full of half-page animated GIF signatures separating single lines of text, some kind of content-free zone of minimum information density. Maybe it can be configured to be better than that after all. How does it handle threading? Will forum threads be properly threaded? And will replies have the correct In-Reply-To: <msgid> header so they get threaded correctly?

Limited HTML is really useful on web forums, though, as it allows you to delineate code from other text. Unless the whole forum is set to monospaced text with preserved whitespace, that's necessary to ensure that code samples are readable. -- Craig Ringer Tech-related writing: http://soapyfrogs.blogspot.com/ -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
