This happens inside other objects such as code blocks too, meaning typing code causes errors if you happen to be testing less-than-a-number.

Seems that if you type a <bracket> bracket,any text after a space or break will be consumed within the brackets until the bracket closes.

We are using an old and out of date phpBB 2.0.23 version of the forum software.
The latest version is at least phpBB 7.2.0.
I can not tell you what has changed within the 5 versions in between but I am will to guess it is a heap of stuff.
Now why are we living in pre-historic times I hear you ask.
The game was written in 1998 on the Red Hat 9 Linux system.
It had previously been tried to be converted to a newer Linux but this failed (before my time).
I have ported it to a recent CentOS version and it appeared to work (with a few changes) but I am still nervous due to the previous failure.
Also I would need to effectively run two versions of the server during the period that I set up the new CentOS box and run Red Hat on the old box.
The big advantage would be to be able to run the latest version of everything.
