[CB] RPG Posting Template

[Jordan Reposter]

Code by Jordan

This script allows you to create multiple posting templates on the Modify Profile page under the added section titled "Posting Templates". Once you have created some templates (which are automatically saved as you type them, although you still need to press the Modify Profile button when you are finished), they will be available to you on the posting page and quick reply. All you have to do is click on a template and it's contents will be automatically inserted into your post.

Previews
- Modify Profile Page
- Posting Page
- Quick Reply

Since this code uses an HTML 5 feature, your browser needs to be the following version at a minimum.

Internet Explorer	8.0+
Firefox			3.5+
Safari			4.0+
Chrome			4.0+
Opera			10.5+
iPhone			2.0+
Android			2.0+

The templates are stored on your computer by your browser which gives a limited amount of space per domain (website): 5MB per domain in Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, and Opera, 10MB per storage area in Internet Explorer. If you clear all browser history then the templates will also be cleared.
