Would it be possible to make tags that put AS code inline with your paragraph text? So instead of: Try using ActionScript Code: ```auto flash.utils.getTimer(); ``` it would be something like: Try using _flash.[COLOR=#000080]utils[/COLOR].[COLOR=#0000ff]getTimer[/COLOR]COLOR=#000000[/COLOR];_ And if we were really good, we could even make tags which link to the AS3 livedocs. So typing [asdic]flash.utils.getTimer()[/asdic] (or whatever tage name) would link to [http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/utils/package.html#getTimer()](http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/utils/package.html#getTimer()) Just some ideas I thought were pretty schmancy. ---

I still think this is a good idea. ---

I’d just like to be able to edit my posts if I suck enough to not spot a type-o before I submit 😠 ---

Use the plain text editor. ---

I agree - this is a great idea. The problem with this is implementation and maintainance, but I will give this a shot once some of the other forum-related work has wrapped up 🙂 ---

I still want my [font=monospace][noparse][font=monospace][/noparse][/font]code[font=monospace][noparse][/font][/noparse][/font] tags! I type this out all the time, and it could easily be simplified to [font=monospace][ic][/font] or something for _incline code_. ---

I actually did a search for `incline tag` just to make sure it was a typo and not some newfangled phrase cool people use these days…to describe inline code 😛 ---
