Attaching code

[George P Burdell]

I don't see the "Attach Code" option when posting to Programming, but I see it when posting to Off Topic. Is there anything I need to change in my settings, or is this a forum bug?

Mine's the same way. The admins probably need to change something on their end.

Obviously this means that Programming threads go in OT.

Attach code button works.

Formmating of attached code broken

Does it let me insert ASP code that gets processed server-side? PLEASE????

Maybe for the next remake?

Attaching code is horribly broken! Looks like it converts newlines into spaces so everything goes on one line and wraps around. Completely unreadable.

Plus, after I have attached code and go back to edit, the attached code gets chopped (maybe this due to some special characters in the code {}). So if I edit a post for a spelling mistake and re-submit, the attached code is chopped.

Please fix. A programming forum needs to have a functioning "Attach Code" button.

Same issue here... it should include all spacing and carriage returns IMO !

A good example of this problem.

How it should look in the attach code screen.

Does having another complaining voice help fix the problem faster? There is no way I can read this guy's code as things stand.

Please fix?

Edit: He re-entered his code as regular text; but the problem still exists.

Yes... please fix the broken attach code... we need a WYSIWYG...
