WHAT ARE HTML TAGS?

HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language) is the code in which web pages are written. Most areas of myPHPNuke will allow you to include HTML tags in your verbiage. This feature will give you much more control over the layout of your Articles, Blocks, FAQ, etc...

Basic HTML Tags:

Text Formatting
> The following tags will format your text: (HTML is in red)
> Bold: | <B>Bold</B> |
> Italic: | <I>Italics</I> |
> Font Size: | <FONT SIZE=+3>Font Size</FONT> | values range from -3 to +4
> Font Color: | <FONT COLOR=blue>Blue</FONT> | any color name or 6 digit hex code
Bullets and Lists
With the following HTML tags, you can make bullets or list, ordered by number or letter. Bullets:
<ul> <li>Apple</li> <li>Orange</li> <li>Peach</li> </ul> | Apple Orange Peach
Numbered Lists:
<ol> <li>Carrot</li> <li>Tomato</li> <li>Squash</li> </ol> | Carrot Tomato Squash
Lettered Lists:
<ol type=A> <li> Milk</li> <li> Soda</li> <li> Juice</li> </ol> | Milk Soda Juice
Adding Images
To add an image to your posting, just use the following HTML tag. <IMG SRC="myimage.jpg" width=50 height=100> note: you need to know the width and height of your image, as well as the path to where it is saved.
Links (URL's and Email)
To add a hyperlinked web address within your message, just encase the URL as shown in the following example. <A HREF="http://VirtualSprings.net">click here to visit VirtualSprings</A> The same HTML tag can be used to link to an email address. This is done simply by replacing the http:// with mailto:. Like this. <A HREF="mailto:support@VirtualSprings.net">click here to email support</A> You can also use images for the links by adding a image tag within the <A HREF> tag.
