Including javascript code in forum posts
Nov 07 2011 | 12:57 am
It looks like the click-to-expand method of pasting in copy-compressed max patches breaks when you try to include anything else wrapped in code tags. I really love the feature but is there any way to preserve whitespace properly when posting other code snippets, like javascript, to the forum?
- Nov 07 2011 | 12:00 pmI would just post a patch with a comment displaying the js-code.(I've always been curious to why nobody shares their email on the forum this way)
- Nov 11 2011 | 11:15 amGood idea, I'm not sure why I didn't think of that, the [js] object is even clever enough to keep the indentation, even if [comment] does not display it!
- Nov 11 2011 | 4:11 pmYou can use the pre tag to preserve formatting:
function test() { this is my silly code } - Jul 07 2015 | 10:07 pm
Testing testing^ I was… testing. I was trying to understand why wrapping a < pre > around < code > wasn't working, it appears using just < pre > does it. To admins, feel free to delete this reply! - Jul 16 2015 | 5:42 pmHi friends,Anangel Argonaut is right, in that pre tags are best for multi-line code.Some quick tips on the forum can be found here. But if you have anything that you think should be pointed out, we'd be glad to hear suggestions!
