The next version of SI software (early 2012?) will be MUCH more compliant with modern HTML standards,...

SI needs to get up to speed and get rid of the ancient HTML tags. Keeping it simple but more poster friendly to copy/paste articles/maps/tables etc; in their original format. I use the software JING that Cheeky (SI Ron) has given SI members a "heads up" for quite some time, but SI needs to compliment that site just the same with the simple stuff. I can site many examples of totally useless posts of "market depths" per stocks of numbers rammed together which make no sense - why not add some features to make posting more user friendly?

Message 27471474

Brad asked for ideas to make SI a better place, to have the ability to use some features like SH and other sites when composing posts makes good sense to me in...."getting with the times".

...wouldn't it be quicker/better to have simple features implemented here at SI to be able to underline, italic, bold etc; in a time efficient manner/fashion rather than going the old fashioned route below?


....and to copy stuff in it's originality to SI as a complimentary tool to go along with the use of the JING program that some SI posters use also makes sense to me? Make it more user friendly but keep the speed intact as SI loads the fastest of all boards i travel...
