The Forum: Help
All posts on the forum have the HTML code stripped from them before being displayed.
However, there are still ways to add formating to your posts. Here is a list of what you can use
and an example of how they work.
Notes:
| Style Type | Syntax | Display Example |
|---|---|---|
| Bold | your <b>bolded</b> text. | your bolded text. |
| Italic | your <i>italicized</i> text. | your italicized text. |
| Underline | your <u>underlined</u> text. | your underlined text. |
| Strike | your <strike>strike</strike> text. | your strike text. |
| Hyperlink | <a href = 'http://www.google.com'>google!</a> | google! |
| Countdown | <countdown>November 18, 2005</countdown> | 4 days, 3 seconds |
| Hide | <hide name = 'my text'>some long text</hide> (note: the name is optional) |
Show/Hide my text
|
| Acronym | <acronym title = 'how to use acronym'>HTUA</acronym> | HTUA |
| Color | This text is <color name = 'red'>red</color>! | This text is red! |
| nospam | <nospam>test@test.com</nospam> | test@test.com (It looks the same, but is "hidden" in the HTML from spam bots) |
| YouTube | <youtube>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2ZXSzaUIBQ&playnext_from=TL&videos=f8yeuK0Ra98</youtube> | The YouTube video will be displayed directly in the forum. |
| Image | <image>http://fc07.deviantart.net/fs32/f/2008/201/5/f/Diablo_3_wallpaper_10_by_Diesp.jpg</image> | The image will be displayed directly in the forum. |
Notes:
- For hyperlinks, the "http://" is required for the link to work.
- The countdown may use any date/time format recognized by strtotime($time).
- Some other basic tags work as well.
