Unfortunately I just found a way to change the font despite the fact that the FONT tag isn't allowed: using style="font-size:" within P.

see?

anyone know a way to prevent this? I like to keep my forums focused on the content not the format, and while bold, italics, etc. are important, we can't have huge fonts cluttering up the page. :)

since I'm rather impatient I could offer one suggestion myself. Only local images are allowed.

obviously without using custom style sheets or turning off font styles and sizes in Internet Options (in IE at least), the user is going to see the result of any font styles that someone sneaks in. a style if I'm not mistaken can be added to any tag, and can probably override the intended function of that tag. since some tags--like A--depend on name=value pairs to work, the only option I see is to filter out any style= strings upon preview/submission. granted, the occasional style application can come in handy, but with the number of available options I think it wouldn't be worth it (in terms of coding time) to allow some and not others.

Thats because the html filter wasn't fully enabled on drupal.org. I disabled it a while back to let people use more markup in book pages. I've added a few more tags now and enabled the filter again so style shouldn't work anymore.

Its not really a big deal as I can easially go and update your post to remove the style properties if you abuse it Only local images are allowed.
