...too much to remember and too tedious. On other sites it is necessary only to highlight the item then hit I for italics, B for bold, etc

As I said, I'm spoiled

dale, would you share a link to one of those other forums? I'm interested in what software they're using, and whether or not it is a browser/platform issue.

SMF offers that functionality. I just tested it on another board.

hmm. I just tried it on Safari and the Firefox in my SMF forums, and it works in FF, but not Safari, so there are at least some browser issues. I haven't tried Internet Exploder... (don't even have that installed on this machine.)

this board does offer some middle ground through use of Instant UBB Code. as long as you use reply ( not quick reply ), you can click the function and type the desired text in the box. not too taxing.
