This is a test. Will this image show up? I’m about to find out. The first has ‘rel=”nofollow”‘; the second doesn’t.

[ Moderator intervention is required. Your html code is correct – but when the angular brackets are received by WordPress they’re interpreted as symbols and converted into html character codes.

OK. I give up (at least for the time being). How did James get the image to show up in this comment?

I was wondering the same thing.
Let’s see if this works:

Oops, stray quotation marks!
I doubt if it’ll work even if I correct it.
If it doesn’t, I suppose I’ll just have to ask in the main forum, but I’m reluctant to digress, especially as I don’t contribute much.
Oh well, one more try:

I’m sure I didn’t insert that “gt;” thing myself.
I give up.Twirlip
Well, I suppose I could try it the really stupid way:

And the only slightly less stupid way:

Sorry. I tried it using the code shown by inspecting the page (Ctrl+Shift+I). ie, including the part. But, no.

Sod this for a game of soldiers! Who’s up for just asking in the main forum, before it is too late? Please don’t let it be me!

Comments on the blog don’t work the same as the forums anyway. It’s a different piece of software. Other things are different too, eg. you can use the ‘b’ tags for bold in blog comments, but in the forums you must use ‘strong’ tags.

Los, you forgot to say “Abracadabra!”
A drop of your own blood, or even the sacrifice of a small animal, also helps to draw the attention of the powerful spirits lurking in the great Reality beyond the Matrix of WordPress that we poor mortals inhabit. There are (or so it has been whispered to me) certain Enochian extensions of XML that we could use (even without the need for blood sacrifice), but I do not think any of us here is yet ready for such knowledge. So, beware! Do not be fooled by the Santa outfit worn by our recent Visitor from the Beyond – these are dangerous forces that you are meddling with!
