BBCode for the CastleCops forums:

Is there a way to indent or center? A long line of spaces is not recognized, therefore the need for an indent tag or some way to place a title, for example, ten or fifteen spaces in from the left margin.

According to CastleCops Link/modules.php?name=Forums&file=faq&mode=bbcode there is no support for indent or center in this forum.

In a HTML environment, multiple spaces are always reduced to a single one, so you can't use this to indent. Also, non-breakable spaces ( ) are not supported in this forum, so they can't be used to create a bunch of space characters.

P.S. questions or suggestions about the forum itself are best posted here CastleCops Link/f1-General_Site.html

P.P.S. You could try this to create an indention

In my previous post, I was going to ask if you had any more codes, perhaps similar to the ASCII Character Code. And I came across HTML Character Codes at www.tntluoma.com/sidebars/codes and now I can print out things like ♠ ♣ ♥ ♦ ←
ψ § ® Ψ φ ‰ ℘
ℵ ™ √ ⊥
Tinkered with the Character Map but couldn't "do anything".

Thank you for giving me a push down the road to what I like to look at as a magnificent "discovery"!

Not sure why you "couldn't do anything" with the Character Map; I usually just copy & paste anything from there. Use a Unicode font like Arial Unicode MS - it contains just about every known glyph in the universe. (Except Klingon, I know.)

I stand corrected!

Ξ ▓ ♫ ╬ﻻ ⅞ ₧ ۩ ם ו

Easier this way, too.

Once again, thank you!

If you want to input more than just a few characters of a non-latin character set, you better install the appropriate Input Method Editor (IME). I have the Japanese IME installed, and with it I can just 日本語を書きます。 (No need to copy/paste from Character Map.)

Input Method Editors exist for many languages, including Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Hebrew, Arabic, etc. On Windows XP it can be activated from Regional and Language Options.
