I'm open to posting my code differently. The only thing I have a problem with is appearance changes to posts that were created before this new functionality went into effect. It would be neat if there could be some kind of filter where posts made before the new functionality aren't modified. Existing posts were made with the originator verifying the appearance. If changes to the appearance are done later, the intent of the original post may change.

West Wind's messageboard gets around this by posting test "as is" and require two angle brackets around the text you want to treat as HTML.
