Not saying this is the case here, as I do not have rear end access (so to speak!). Both > and < are used in scripting language, which could be used to hack the XI site. Hence they have been banned as standard forum software protocol. Cobra needs to speak with the management to have this update (if I'm correct???).

Fixed now. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards
