Hi Celia,

did you figure out [ code] ??

it's handy for describing HTML without actually "doing" it !

i.e. with CODE:

Code:

[move][color=Green]this line contains HTML elements[/color][/move]

without CODE:
this line contains HTML elements

[size] gives you the default of 10pt.

Code:

[size=10pt]This is 10pt. [/size]

This is 10pt.

Code:

[size=15pt]This is 15pt. [/size]

This is 15pt.

Let me know if you want more about [table], that gets complicated !

Hi Celia,

font size:

to change the font size, just change the 10 to any number you want

Code:

[size=10pt]This is my text[/size]

gives you: This is my text. I haven't changed anything

If I then change the 10 to 15 I get this:

Code:

[size=15pt]This is my text[/size]

gives you: This is my text. See the difference !

Lists:

click on the "list" button and you get this:

Code:

[list][li][/li][li][/li][/list]

now add texts between the li and /li tags like this:

Code:

[list][li]text 1[/li][li]Text 2[/li][/list]

and it comes out looking like this:

Text 1
Text 2

you can add more lines, with

Code:

[li]any text [/li]

as long as they all come before the final /list tag
I personally prefer to write them in seperate lines, but that may just be me !

Code:

[list]
[li]text 1[/li]
[li]Text 2[/li]
[/list]

In all these examples I'm using the Code-Tags to "show the workings", otherwise it would just appear on the screen as a "finished" version

[table] is much more complicated. I'm at work at the moment, but for my next coffee break, I'll try and explain them for you,

Till then,
Bob

Hi Celia,

the click-on button for font-size is in the "Add BBC Tags", first row, second from the right (An A with an arrow up and down). click on that and you get

Code:

[size=10pt]text[/size]

That's where you change the size

the font is the first button from the right, a big red A

Code:

[font=Verdana]text[/font]

See SS from the Rhondda's posting above for different fonts !

p.s.
I coded the big red A like this:

Code:

[size=15pt][color=Red]A[/color][/size]

Bob
It's taken me four months to learn how to put an animation up, it should be April before I get pictures and fonts up (if I am lucky)

Thanks for all your help and patience though
