hi, it's me, chucklefuck mcgee.

so recently i've been trying to get back into jcink coding for funsies (formats, etc) and it seems that whenever i post a code, something is always broken about it. i post it on codepen and even use sites like html-css-js.com/ and my format seems totally fine but when it hits jcink, some internal coding seems to fuck it up big time every time. 

anyone know how to work around this so i can code without stressing about fixing things one error at a time on the forum itself?

One way to do "live" editing is to use the inspection tool in your browser to edit it on the forum. It's not a perfect solution because you have to remember all of the changes you made, but it does allow you to edit it without refreshing or saving the post, etc. There's not going to really be a site you can, because the issues you're likely running into are just CSS conflicts with the site itself.

It might help the post the code in question so we can see how you're structuring everything.

If you're customizing b, i, table, tr, td, h1, etc., make sure you have a parent class wrapped around it and style your css as .classname element {}

If you have something set but it's not taking after transferring over, slap !important on it. You never know. xD

Also make sure you are not using any class names that jcink is already using. Your browser dev tools will help with this, or, if you have your own jcink site, look at the stylesheet.

You'll also need to make sure your class names do not conflict with custom themes.
