    Does anybody know a way to get truthful live-previews? So far nothing works for me, it always lies, so that whenever I click "Add A Solution". I then discover that my posted text was modded from what's displayed in the live-preview. Tried several 'pre' codes, its easy to get the preview looking correct, but it wont post that way. If not, I'm ok without previews if there's anything I can do to keep the posted text from being auto-modded (it will usually be PCRE regular expression).

      I use the pre tags extensively in Solutions and it always gets posted correctly. I notice that you have only posted one Solution, and it does not have any formatted part. So are there any actual examples of the problem you describe? And by the way, this has nothing to do with Article writing.

        Many thanks for replying. Yes, I tried many times answering... https://www.codeproject.com/Questions/727990/REGEX-for-validating-URL I tried at least 8 different times. The preview displayed perfectly, until I actually clicked the 'Post your solution'. After that, the text was auto-modded, this happenned irregardless of how many pre tags I experimented with. Im not sure what finally made the difference, I did change the default paste options. And then I just used the standard pre tag (not ASM,ASP,etc), and it posted just like the preview. Again, many thanks for the reply!
