Date?
Do you remember how you entered the date here? I'm trying to handle the different ways people post it so it comes out right.

weird dates
Hi Troy:

Yes, I noticed that after I clicked "submit"
I entered the date as August 2004. I didn't notice the format you suggested.

Question for you. I forgot how to use the html tags for linking to a website. If I want to link to www.scottcamazine.com, how do I do it? I tried [url]www.scottcamazine.com[url] but that doesn't seem to work.
thanks

Thanks
I'll see if I can handle that type of date case.

You're close on the url, just end it with [/url]. See this forum discussion for more info on how to do that and some other nifty things:
http://www.bugguide.net/node/view/3531

And just below the comment form there's some instructions too, with a link to BBCode.
