Suggestion: The [CODE] tag could be improved

[Lunos]

Hi. I'll make this quick. The [code][/code] tag has some minor issues.

If you don't use the default visual theme of the forums like me, images embedded within

 tags are not being fully displayed.

On top of that, code syntax can look a bit screwed up.

Now, if you do use the default theme of the forum, images linked within [icode][code]

[/icode] tags do show up normally. However, code syntax can still look funny anyway.

It would be awesome if at some point down the road, the tag could be slightly reworked to correct these problems it has.

 tags are not designed to accommodate BB code, including images found inside, and will eventually be prevented from parsing at all. For all intents and purposes, users attempting to use boxes to display things should be opting to use indents, create their own [div] tags with borders, or just not put it in a [code] tag at all.

Further, the "non-default" style you're using is deprecated, and we are no longer rolling out features or fixes for it. It will be disabled for all users later in the year.

At present, the [code] syntax also uses an outdated syntax highlighter. It's going to be replaced eventually, but will require explicitly specifying the language for syntax highlights.

Alright then. Thank you for your response. I guess this thread can be closed.
