UserDefinedTag issue

[dest]

So, I set up a user defined tag for code display (so it doesn't parse it, and to look nicer when displaying).

I defined the tag as "code", and typed in the following (the c parameter would be the code I want displayed):

Code: Select all

if($params['c']!='')
{
 echo "<div style='margin-left:10%;font-size:smaller'><b>Code:</b>
 <div style='background-color:#eeeeee;border:1px solid black;'>";
 $code=$params['c'];
 $code=str_replace("<","&#60",$code);
 $code=str_replace(">","&#62",$code);
 $code=str_replace("{","&#123",$code);
 $code=str_replace("}","&#125",$code);
 echo $code;
 echo "</div></div>"
}

I then went to test this, and found out that it didn't work, because the editor had converted the html character codes back to the characters.  The str_replace()s now did nothing. 

I decided to try fixing this problem by going to phpmyadmin, finding where this was stored, and putting in the correct code.  Now, calling the {code} tag causes a tag-not-found error:

Fatal error: Smarty error: [in preview:cmspreviewmGQLao line 740]: syntax error: unrecognized tag 'code' (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, line 580) in /home/www/dev/cms/lib/smarty/Smarty.class.php on line 1095

Basic info:
-CMS Made Simple 0.13
-PHP 4.4.0
-Apache 1.3.33
-mySQL 4.0.24

I would appreciate any help.

1) turn wysiwyg off
2) copy the code you just pasted
3) delete any tag called code that shows up in the tag list
4) create a new tag called code, and click  "paste"

WYSIWYG was already off. 

I've found the problem, though.  If you have bad code, when it redisplays with the error, it changes character codes to display the character.  I must have not noticed that when I did that last time. 

Thanks, though.
