Mobile data SIMs - reading matter?
burakkucat:
Here follows the original that was entered into the compose/edit pane --
[font=times new roman]I have several Andrews and Arnold 4G data SIMs for iPads and 4G routers. In fact, AA buys telecommunications services in from [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aql_(company)]AQL[/url] in Leeds (see [url=http://aql.com]aql.com[/url]). AQL in turn runs over the [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_UK]Three UK[/url] 4G / 3G mobile network (see [url=http://three.co.uk]three.co.uk[/url]).
I wonder if anyone could help me with any pointers towards reading matter for the protocol stacks involved and description on the architecture from various viewpoints?
I think I need to look at various 3GPP specs but I’m kind-of lost at the moment.

From that we can see that the tag causing the mischief is --
[font=times new roman]blah-blah[/font]

So it appears that something at Weaver's end is selecting times new roman as a default font.
@W, It's not one of your new furballs sitting on the keyboard is it? ;)
BTW B*kat, how did you manage to show the tags in your post? When I tried that it just put them into effect, without showing them.
Sorry if this is a numptie question...

Ah, it's quite simple really. There is a [nobbc][/nobbc] tag which turns off the interpretation between the beginning and end of the pair.
Just in case anyone is curious how I displayed the tag pair in the previous sentence, I had to nest a pair of tags -- [nobbc][nobbc][/nobbc][/nobbc]. (And yes, I've just nested three of them to show those two!) :D
Weaver:
Some things don't really actually give you type=plain text when you think that is what you have, but embed formatting info in an object carried over during a copy-paste.

Thanks for that great explanation, b*kat.
There are many things that are "simple" when you know how, but seem like magic to the ignorant!
I realised a long time ago that I will never know everything, but I treasure every nugget gained :thumbs:
