Title:
Basic Text-Editing in HTML
Body:
Here are some simple things you can do to enhance your text when you leave comments or write blogs and journals on social networking sites! To use the following enhancements, simply use the codes shown.
 
Remember HTML requires you to enclose your text in ON/OFF switches. Turn the feature on using <ON> and off again with the slash </OFF> as shown in these examples:
 
Bold Text: <b>This text is bold.</b>
Italics:  <i>Italics</i> 
Underline: <u>underline</u> 
Strikethrough: <s>strikethrough</s> 
Big size: <big>Big size</big > 
Small size:  <small>Small size</small> 

Hyperlink to a Website:  
          Click to visit <A HREF="http://TinyURL.com/Tolbers"> My Website </A> 
 
A Bulleted List:
   One Item
   Another Item
        A Bulleted List:
          <ul>
          <li>One Item</li>
          <li>Another Item</li>
          </ul>
 
An Ordered List:
  First Item
  Second Item
          An Ordered List:
          <ol>
          <li> First Item</li>
          <li> Second Item</li>
          </ol>
 
Indent - Similar to creating text-boxes for quotations:
          <blockquote>Indented Text Area</blockquote>
 
Heading 1 - Very Large, Bold Text
          <h1>Heading 1</h1>
 
Heading 2 - Large, Bold Text
          <h2>Heading 2</h2>
 
Heading 3 - Bold Text
          <h3>Heading 3</h3>
 
To Place a Picture:
 
Make the Picture Clickable:
<a href="http://www.webpage.com"><img src="">http://www.webpage.com/picture.jpg" alt="Visit the Web Page"></a>
 
Create a Plain-Text Box:
Doing this will create an indented box to put special text into. This is ESPECIALLY handy in case you're trying to use HTML examples on your web page but don't want to execute the codes! Be warned.. It's not pretty! But it sure gets the job done!
<textarea>Anything you want goes here.</textarea>
 
Making a Custom Signature
<font face="Palace Script MT" size="5">Your Name Here</font>
Note: Not all fonts are supported by this. Choose any of the standard web text fonts. You will need to adjust the "size" accordingly as some fonts naturally display larger than others.
