I just tried adding a color to some text in another topic and used the color-picker from the menu buttons at the top of the text editor. I also made the text bold. I did NOT attempt to manually enter the HTML. Yet, what shows up is the actual inline style via "span" tag with "style" attribute. I will try a few others here as testing:
- bold
- italics
- ~~strike-through~~
- underline?
- RED
- Special characters (from the "special character" menu button at the top of the text editor):
 - ? (black spade)
 - ? (sigma / summation)
 - ? (upwards double-arrow)
 - Related (even if the above 3 characters are stored correctly):

Take care,
Solomon...

Underline this text: I am underlined

This appears to work in the editor.

Underlining seems to be working here.

So it has been fixed?

Edit: Nope, it isn't working here. How did you underline, Steve? BBCode works, but I used Ctrl+U to do the underlining. If relevant (unlikely), I'm using Firefox 66 on Windows 10.

Cheers.

I will click the text after the colon and then CTRL+U: Another underline test

Before I highlighted text and did CTRL+U. For this text, I will click CTRL+U and then type: underline this

This appears to be working in the editor. Now posting from Firefox 66, Win 10.

I'm not sure what's happening here, but I posted the original test post from Chrome, Win 10, now from FF, win 10.

There must be some strange setting one of us has with regard to posting back to the forum.

Odd. indeed. I see your text is underlined in the editor, but I bet it'll have  wrapped around it after publishing. (I won't edit this afterwards, and the (dis)proof will be in the "pudding".

I'm running Windows 10 pro 1809 and Firefox 66.0.2 (can't paste images still either I'm afraid, so no screens).

I will try my original test again, by highlighting text and then applying the style ( I am using Windows 10 -- Version 10.0.17763 Build 17763 and Chrome -- Version 73.0.3683.86 ):

I'll see if I have the same behaviour at home tonight; I'm running Ubuntu there (but still Firefox). Solomon has the the same build of Windows as I do, so the problem might lie there. Seems it isn't isn't the browser though as Solomon is using Chrome (and if i recall correctly Mozilla uses Gecko, not Chromium).
