Default Intermittent html issues?

I have noticed lately that sometimes html code in posts does not work, for example a quote, instead of showing up as a quote, shows up as normal text with the [quote] tags visible on either side of it, or when someone posts a smiley it shows the code for the smiley but not the smiley itself. But this only happens occasionally. I looked at the stickies and didn't see any mention of it, is it just me?

the bulletin doesnt use html in these txt boxes (at least that we can type) It only uses basic bulletin board commands defined by the boards software and then later translated into php/html

it probably because they used a \ instead of /

do you have a specific example?

I looked around, but I only found a couple examples and both times something was missing, either the / or one whole tag wasn't there. Maybe that's what it was all along. It just seemed like it started happening all of a sudden. Couldn't find an example of a smiley that appeared as code, if I can I will post it here. Thanks.
