WWF Version 7.95

Is there a way to allow certain users to post a message and paste HTML code? e.g.:

<object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/wvg3jv9sHhc"></param><embed src=" http://www.youtube.com/v/wvg3jv9sHhc" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>

I want to be able to post that and it show as an object, the true html posting.

Please reply asap thanks

This looks like a Flash file to me.

Flash support can be enabled from the admin section on the 'Forum Configuration' page, then you can use the forums own BBcode to place Flash files into your posts.

   Do you just paste the code in or you have to upload the file?

I got the flash working but adding a onClick isnt possible.

I dont want just flash to work, that was just an example. I need to allow pasting of all HTML code.

Is there a way to do that?

Pasting HTML code directly isn't permitted as it would be a huge whole hackers would love to exploit to hack your forum.

Even though the WYSIWYG editor does allow HTML to format posts, this is still filtered by the 'HTML Secure' security filters built into the software that filter out much of the HTML code to prevent malicious code attacks from hackers.

Web Wiz Forums takes security very seriously and tries to be the most secure forum system available, you may find other forum systems that allow you to put HTML directly into posts without filtering it, but then your forum would be very insecure.

It can be done but would require allot of code altering and changing.

Have a look in the mods and add-ons forum, someone amy have already done this.
