Wrap text around images
Is there any hope that wrapping text around images will actually be incorporated in ver 3.0.2? Or will it be left to the users to know how and manually use the proper BBcode?

At the very least it should be easy enough to add it to the Help menu!

We can update the help (someone will have to write the text - I cannot).

Changing the html from LI to DIV is probably unnecessary. The same can be achieved by updating forum.css.tmpl.

What he wants are images/buttons for the FUD_CODE in post_common.tmpl to "automatically" insert [imgl] and [imgr] tags.

You can take the images I posted and cut away the background, or you can make your own.

Here is the code that goes into post_common.tmpl -> fud_code_icons

<a onclick="surroundText('[imgl]', '[/imgl]', document.post_form.msg_body); return false;" href="javascript:void(0);" title="Image Left">

<img src="{THEME_IMAGE_ROOT}/b_imagel.gif" alt="Image Left">

</a>

<a onclick="surroundText('[imgr]', '[/imgr]', document.post_form.msg_body); return false;" href="javascript:void(0);" title="Image Right">

<img src="{THEME_IMAGE_ROOT}/b_imager.gif" alt="Image Right">

</a>

Ah, I understand. However, I don't think we should add it to the base package.
It's quite easy to add and everyone would probably want to have different buttons anyway.

Come to think of it, if someone prepares buttons that look similar to the exiting ones, we can add it, but leave it commented out.
To enable additional buttons would then be a matter of un-commenting what you need.

Now that's a stroke of genius there!

Would this work for you?
<!--Start Wrapping text around Images -->

<a name="img"><b>Wrap Text Around images</b></a>
<br />

<table>
  <tr>
    <td width="300" align="center" valign="middle"><b>BBcode</b></td>

    <td width="300" align="center" valign="middle"><b>Result</b></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td valign="middle" align="center"><font color="#f00"><b>[imgl]</b></font><br /><font color="#060">http://www.prohost.org/img/pro_logo.gif<br 

/></font><font color="#f00"><b>[/imgl]</b></font></td>
    <td valign="middle" align="center"><img src="http://www.prohost.org/img/pro_logo.gif" alt="image With Text Wrapped Around it" width="204" 

height="31" /></td>
  </tr>
</table>

<br />    
<i>Explanation:</i> You can use BBcode to Wrap text smoothly around images by enclosing the image url within [imgl][/imgl] "Image Left" or [imgr][/imgr] "image right" tags, These may also be used in conjunction with other text alignment and Styling tags.
<br /><br /><br />

Perfect!
Changes committed as per http://fudforum.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/fudforum?view=revision&revis ion=5097

The next challenge is to replace the ugly markup (tables and font tags) with DIV's and semantically correct HTML.

If I understood, what you want I would try, but all I understand is that you want it to look pretty! Confused

I have been planning that for quite some time naudjef, but every time you poke at that stuff you get problems with old edits and get a pile of "quote_old" quote"" etc laying around in your post_proc

But yes, it should most definitely be fixed with proper classes at least hehe

I'm referring to the HTML in the help files, which is pretty isolated.
The rest also needs updating, but will be a huge undertaking.

I have seen the added help section and would like to suggest a slightly improved explanation:

<a name="imglr"><b>Wrap text around images</b></a>
<br />

<table>
  <tr>
    <td width="300" align="center" valign="middle"><b>BBcode</b></td>
    <td width="300" align="center" valign="middle"><b>Result</b></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td valign="middle" align="center"><font color="#f00"><b>[imgr]</b></font><br /><font color="#060">http://fudforum.org/forum/images/fudlogo.gif<br /></font><font color="#f00"><b>[/imgr]</b></font><br />Some text to the left.</td>
    <td valign="middle" align="center"><img class="r" src="http://fudforum.org/forum/images/fudlogo.gif" alt="Image with text wrapped around it" width="140" height="49" />Some text to the left.</td>
  </tr>
</table>

Locally I also have a German translation for this. And I have fixed the URL to the FUDforum logo for all languages. But I thought I ask you before committing it.
