Try Pseudo WYSIWYG BBCode Editor

 Hello!  Some of you who are just starting out in the world of BBCode (bulletin board code) may be drowning in sea of abbreviations…WYSIWYG…BBCode…ASP…XHTML…phpBB…it’s enough to make you pull your hair out!  Don’t panic.  Go grab a hot cup of coffee and pull up a chair and we’ll explore the ins and outs of bulletin board coding, pseudo WYSIWYGs, and why a little mod called Pseudo WYSIWYG BBCode Editor is among the top options you’ll find.

 As you know, a bulletin board is a system that lets users post messages related to a certain topic.  It’s basically an online message board.  The nice thing about them is that people can form relationships revolving around some interest, and these relationships will form a community of sorts via the Internet.

 

If you’re interested in making your own bulletin board, it’s not too hard, although it’s not exactly easy either.  As long as you understand some rudimentary HTML and PHP, you’ll be well on your way in no time.  While knowing PHP is technically not necessary, it is the most popular coding language used in the creation of boards.  Specifically, phpBB is a free program covered under the GNU General Public License.  Unfortunately, there is no set standard for the way bulletin board code should be written, so it’s difficult to create a board that is compatible across all browsers.

 

With that out of the way, let’s look at pseudo WYSIWYGs.  Something that’s pseudo means that it takes on the appearance of being something it is not.  So a pseudo WYSIWYG looks like a WYSIWYG but actually isn’t.  In layman’s terms, what you see isn’t exactly what you get, but it gives you an idea of what you’re gonna get.

 

Pseudo WYSIWYG BBCode Editor is a mod that lets you spruce up the page where people post messages so that it takes on the appearance of being WYSIWYG.  Because it’s a MOD (or modified version) of phpBB, including new code words, it’s considered third-party software.  As such, the makers of phpBB can not be held liable for any occurance as a result of using the MOD.  The pseudo WYSIWYG BBCode editor is available on several web sites, including phpBB’s site (www.phpbb.com) and SoftPedia (www.softpedia.com).  Have fun and enjoy!
