Colour displaying within a thread

Post by beany »

I need help with something that is driving me nuts guys. In the first post of this thread
http://www.uamf.org.uk/viewtopic.php?f=294&t=11645;

the following entry just will not actually display in colour.
Village Church - [color=00BF40]chrism(B)[/color]

I know thw hash is missing before the 00BF40 code because the irony is that when I copied and pasted it here and previewed it it displays correctly so I took out the Hash to deliberately knobble it. It may be a positional thing because when I edited the previous entry that originally had the problem and C&P'd below the above entry, the problem "moved".

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers
Al.

Its not just how good your painting is, its how good the touch-ups are too.

Fixed.

The problem was that 2 entries above (station platform) you did not have a closing {/color}, so the next entry was colored, and then the parser ignored the opening {color} of the village church and then closed on that {/color}.

Hell hath no fury like a frustrated parsing algorithm.

Many thanks for investigating Fred and John. I'd looked and looked at the surrounding lines but it's often the way that you just cannot see your own mistakes isn't it?! Perhaps I should have had my wife take a look first as she is a proof reader!
