Display Bug (counting text as tag)

I was trying to post a C++ code snippet.

The actual variable is "&par amNames" (no spaces) and appears as "¶mNames".

"&para" is a special HTML character code and thus displayed as such.

A workaround:

Replace the & with it's html code: &(delete this)#38;para ---> &para

Still, it's quite annoyoing because every preview of the post will substitute the new character again and the second preview puts you back to square one. Hopefully, we can find a way to disable this "feature" for sections of text.

On some other boards, you can break it up using a silent HTML tag (e.g. </b>, but here it won't let you post, complaining about invalid HTML if you try it.

Another possibility: Just attach your code fragment as text file...
