How to use BBC tags

[Jane Eden]

Hi

I really struggle trying to use the tags when posting. How exactly do I use bold and a bullet point list. I got in a right mess this morning and gave up in the end using a dash and capitals instead.

I did manage a glowing, bold, pink, moving marquee a couple of times but I don't know how I managed that and it took ages. It really can't be that complicated. Can it? I am supposed to be computer literate!

Thanks

Jane

You could either highlight the section you want to alter with the mouse and then click on the tag you want to apply or if you hover the mouse over each tag you will see the appropriate commands for each and you can apply this yourself when typing

for example to get bold its [ b ] bold on and bold off [ /b]
italics [ i ] italics on [ /i ] italics off

Hi Joe - I can show off now 
that resize thingy had me going nuts at first - heres what you do.

Write a phrase, then highlight it  click on the A with the arrow up and down.  It comes up with no.10, you alter that number to the text size you want.  This is 15, lets see if it works.

Yep, that worked OK, only problem is it comes in fat writing and I wanted skinny.
