I have a problem that showed up recently, in a build I show bonus feats by using , however recently I found out that shows up if I don't put words in it and none of it shows up if I do put words inbetween those symbols.

Feb 16, 2010 9:08:34 The rich text post editor uses HTML, and if it sees what it believes to be HTML, it will treat it as HTML. <> is not a tag but anything else in those brackets is.

You can use HTML Entities to display them correctly. Or just choose a different bracket.

EDIT: Actually, I take that back. Since it converts the entities to their appropriate characters before it saves them, if you go to edit your post, it will simply make them disappear again. I recommend a different bracket.

If you put a space before and after whatever's inbetween the brackets, it should work...
