Hello,

When posting a message or reply there are links to the left of the text entry box that say things like "HTML code is off" and "BBcode is on". If you click on the ones that are active then you actually go to a page that explains what the code is.

I would suggest two things:

First, if the particular option is off then don't display anything. A user can't do anything about it anyway so don't show it.

Second, the links should really be labelled "BBcode Help" or "Smilies Help" or something similar. It's not obvious to me and others that you get to a help page by clicking on those links.

Cheers,

James.
