I've never used the chatterbox, and I never will. Not as long
as it has a tiny, tiny, tiny textfield to input your stuff in, and
an itty-bitty column cramped in the right column for reading.
The textfield to put your normal posts in is already small enough
(djees, even in the 70's we had 80x24 ttys) to get claustrophobia.
If I want to chat, I'd use IRC. The simplest of clients has
a better interface than the chatterbox.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
