I know this is not a HLTM teaching forum, but anyway.. I'd be grateful if someone could point me to a link to a primer on writing simple HTML source code for writing straight into the message box of a posting. What I would like to do is occassionally just add bold and change colour to any one line or word, by using the appropriate simple HTML code. I get all sorts of inconsistant things happening simply because I don't know the ground rules and the colours always are expressed as hex numbers! For example, note the following three lines.Yes I can get bold text but...
line1 line2 line3
why is there blank lines between my lines?
the above three lines was typed in as below(replace the ( & ) with acsii characters 60 & 62 respectively. For those puzzled by this, if you go to Menu View Source with this posting open, you'll get a notepad window pop up with the following display. Note that ascii characters 60 & 62 replaced with ( & ).
(HTML)(HEAD)(TITLE)Message Preview(/TITLE) or you can write a posting in Word as a web page. save as a html documnet. Then open with a text editor, then copy and paste to the forum posting message box. the simple way, if ya in the know, is just type it in. I'm not in the know.. So any help would be appreciated. Ta..Steve
