What is NovoCode?
NovoCode is a substitute for html code.
Designed to make posting images, make text bold, url linking etc easier. The
formula looks like this [code]something[/code].
Below is a list of different codes you can use:
URL Hyperlinking
Links
are automatically linked, but you can also use these codes:
[url]www.excoboard.com[/url]
To use a name for the link instead of of just displaying the URL use this code:
[url=http://s3.excoboard.com]My Site[/url]
Bold, Underline and Italics
Using the following codes [b] , [/b] , [u] , [/u] or [i]
, [/i] you can make your text bold, underlined and italic
[b]Mary[/b],[u]had a[/u] [i]little lamb[/i]
Adding Images
To include an image in your post use the following code:
[img]http://host.com/MyHomePage/images/nicepic.gif[/img]
Quoting Other Messages
To quote another message, just cut and
paste the text and enclose it as shown below.
[quote]What
did I do?[/quote]
In the example above, the NovoCode Code
automatically indents the text you reference.
Youtube tag
To include a Youtube video in your post use the [youtube] tag. If the video you want to show has the url http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=65PiKsNhCsc copy the last part after ?v= and paste into the tag.

Spoiler tag
Spoiler Tag is a tag for including spoilers in threads. It will hide the text within the [spoiler] tag until you click the button to show the spoiler.
[spoiler]hidden text goes here[/spoiler]
Code tag
If html is turned on and you want to display html code, the code tag comes
in handy.
[code]html
