This Post shows a stray [/color] at the foot of the post.

Above is shown the edit box from the post.
It is late at night and I may have missed something, but it seems as if the {code} and {/code} has broken phpBBs memory of the {color} {/color}

Another good reason to avoid using the color tags in the first place, if you ask me!

I edited the post for you before I saw this thread.
Yes, the [code] ... [/code] tags "break" the color tags because [code] sets its own color.

Or I could just

Code: Select all

stop 

Code: Select all

using 

Code: Select all

code

Thank you Hans. So this was already in the "known bugs" list of phpBB, yes?

Ask me how my day was yesterday ... OK, I also found a bug in Everything 1.5! I might take the rest of the week off

Setting text colours is problematic because other members may have a completely different background colour to you

Agreed. I have been aware of Red-Green colour blindness for the past 40 years or so, but I think that you are referring to the vast range of different colour schemes that are available in so many applications nowadays. Eileen's Lounge being one of them.
