Azerty keyboards and forums....issues!

Hey, Bug report: If you use an AZERTY keyboard setting, you cannot use any of the ALT-GR + Numeric keys as this seem to be some kind of macroing function and it'll do very strange things. For example, Square brackets in AZERTY are made using " ALT-GR + 5" and " ALT-GR + )" . Opening square brackets simply cannot be done on these forums however and will, at best, screw up your entire text. Closing them is possible however so I suppose only the 1 to 0 numeric keys are affected. To reproduce: Switch your keyboard to AZERTY mode Try to use any of the numerical keys with ALT-GR modifier pressed (ie: opening square brackets). Won't work! Possible fixes: - Disable the forum macroing system when the ALT-GR modifier is used. - Keep the macroing system but add some kind of "insert character" table in the forum toolbar with the characters AZERTY users cannot do. Personally I don't mind much because I'm used to switch back and forth from time to time between QWERTY and AZERTY but it's still a massive pain in the bottom :) Cheers. Edit: ALT-GR is the Right ALT key.

Thank you for reporting this. Alt-GR is a known issue. As a workaround: Alt+91 will give you [ <a href="http://alt-codes.org/list/" rel="nofollow">http://alt-codes.org/list/</a>
