Forum markup?

Does the forum support any markups such as bbCode?

e.g.
[url=http://www.rememberthemilk.com/help/answers/basics/keyboard.rtm]Shortcuts[/url]

[b]bold[/b]

I like to leave links linkable.

I already found that you strip at least some html in messages.

It supports some HTML tags -- I don't think we have a list anywhere (we should probably add one), but it supports basic formatting tags (e.g. bold, italic, underline) as well as links.

Ummm, Emily.

I remember now why bbCode was implemented in the first place. Avoids side effects of bad html in message text.

I just managed to trash a relatively long message with a html error (typo). After previewing, I could no longer click in edit box, that just transferred me to the link in the message.

No big, I can write the message again (offline in text editor).

However, suggest enhancing forum software to automatically enable well formed bare links.

e.g.
http://www.rememberthemilk.com/forums/ideas/559/

This will avoid the copy and paste to address bar that is currently required.
