John, Just approach it the simplest possible way. Support use of the full HTML standard and perhaps some XML ===-- Then over in the customization section every user can use, do the following: Allow the user to customize their view of SI by 'disallowing/allowing' each html tag that SI allows. You could even default all users to what we have now. Then no one would get upset if they didn't want to see the appropriate functionality. ------------- Lastly have the post be posted as it is (no filtering of tags) and when it comes time to retrieve the post, the filter would be applied according to the user's settings, when it generates the web page to be seen. --------- This method would essentially please everyone. It wouldn't be very hard to implement, and it would move the filtering code out of the posting side. U might just end up with much leaner code. And in terms of filtering if you did it write, the filter could simply be a data driven algorithm. Once you write the filter to read a data element as the filter element, you will never have to change a line of code again.
