Not allowed to post URLs

Hi,

I tried to post some perl code for discussion (wrapped in swaddling

[\CODE]. However, a regex has an escaped backslash so the forum parser sees it as an URL?
 
Had the same experience with the sample data that I tried to provide for the same discussion. It contains emails addresses, paths/filenames and database.table combinations like
 
 
fname . lname @ domain . com
{2 backslashes} node1 _ node2 . txt

..without the spaces of course..

anywhooo.. without the code and data, it'll be a difficult conversation and might lead to folks asking why the forum rules weren't followed.. (provide all the details, code, sample data etc..)

What am I missing.. sorry about begin so daft..

TIA,
Mark

Hi, if you put code tags around your code before you post then you should not have a problem. If you post first and add code tags later, then those @ and slashes will have been interpreted...
