For those who like to use tabs instead of spaces to indent their code, perhaps the forum could replace the \t character in pasted code with two non-breaking spaces, so that tabbed code displays properly? As it is now, it seems to get replaced with a single space.
 
Or maybe a tag like <pre>? (Although <pre>'s insistence on making tabs equivalent to 8-spaces could make things a bit porky, and MacIE renders it a bit naffly).

I'm not sure what to do about these fundamental problems with the board. It's a free board called YaBB and it's not an ideal environment for our purposes. We're currently using it without modifications and I haven't looked into the difficulty of such alterations.
