Community Server's parser is interpreting C# array indexes as smileys. Certain integers, when placed inside square brackets, are being interpreted as smiley tokens. This means that certain C# code samples are misrepresented. See all the musical notation at:

A couple of months ago, IG was considering turning off the emoticons. The poll at http://forums.infragistics.com/forums/p/3490/18982.aspx#18982 seems to show user support for this.
Dare I say "Pretty please!"?

Well, I hope that the insert tool helps and makes listings more readable and easier to inject.
In order to get a feel for how folks feel about the emoticon topic, I put up a quick poll on the subject.
Code snippets are a vital part of what we do on your forums.
If the snippet tool is going to simplify some of the indentation and line spacing issues that I've been working around, I'll stand up and cheer. If not, my vote* would be for disabling emoticons (cute) rather than further complicating snippet insertion (vital) with a tool.
Thanks again, Ambrose!
Or, as a VB programmer, I could simply use the issue start a flame war with the C# folk. ;-)
I did some quick research into the settings and on their site, and there's no obvious solution (apart from disabling emoticons). In test, we do have a code snippet insert tool, so I'm thinking/hoping that might solve this issue (well enough). Thanks for the heads up.
