Hello t8,

Could you help me use the function keys on my computer for bolding, italics, etc.?

They don't seem to work in your forum from my computer.

You need to click the button, type the text and then click the button again to close it. Otherwise type it out manually.

I hope this helps.

Hi H,

I don't know HTML. Is it hard and something I can teach myself, or do I have to know computer programming?

[Admin]

It's a language that you need to learn. But it's easy enough to learn some formatting for this Forum. I will give some examples in my next post.

Closed tags: (requires a closing tag, otherwise the attributes just continues
for the whole post.

<marquee>Text scrolls across the page</marquee>

<p> This creates a space between text (paragraph)</p>

< p align=left>Left alignment (standard)</p>

< p align=right>Right alignment.</p>

< p align=justify>Spreadout alignment.</p>

<tt>True type text</tt>

<font color=red>Text is red between the open and closing tags</font>

<Font face=arial>Font is arial</font>

<font face=helvetica size=3 color=green>Font now has 3 attributes</font>

Open tags: (doesn't require a closing tag)

<li>apples

<li>oranges

<li>bananas

<br> This is a line break.

The code in my last post is rendered by a browser to look like this:

Closed tags: (requires a closing tag, otherwise the attributes just continues for the whole post. Text scrolls across the page

This creates a space between text (paragraph)

Left alignment (standard)

Right alignment.

Spreadout alignment.

True type text
Text is red between the open and closing tags
Font is arial
Font now has 3 attributes

Open tags: (doesn't require a closing tag)

OK it looks like the paragraph tags don't work in the Forum. Probably because the Forum already gives a paragraph spacing when you hit enter in the posting screen. So it is not supported as it is not needed. Everything else worked OK.

Thank you, H.

Do you mean that I should type those symbols and letters on my keyboard and it would yield those results?

ok, let's see…

apples

oranges

bananas

I'll see when I post.

I think others will find it useful as well.

[Cubes]

Wow. That is great.

[Cubes]

Thanks again, bro.

[Admin]

Here is another useful tag.

Normal text
<ul>Indent</ul>
Next post shows the result.
