Formatting Rules
All html tags are disabled. The only exception is that some special characters are allowed.
Line breaks (when you hit the enter key) are ignored and lines are rejoined. The exception is when you have two in a row (a blank line); then a new paragraph is started. To force a new line, insert a [br] where you want the break to be.
Note: you can disable reformatting of a section by starting the selection with [ignore] and ending it with [/ignore].
[ignore]Notice that this text is [b]all completely[/b] normal and the tags [italic]are showing[/italic] up as text.[/ignore]
Alternatively, if you just have single tag that you don't want rendered, you can replace [, ] or both with [leftbr] or [rightbr]. This will stop the script from seeing the tag. It can be a lot less typing than surrounding a tag with [ignore] and [/ignore].
Basic Formatting Tags
Bold - Two methods.
1. Place a ''' (three single quotes) before and after the selection. This method is parsed line by line and is broken if you try to cross line boundaries.
2. Start the selection with [b] and end with [/b]. This method will cross line boundaries.
''''''Bold Text''''''
[b]Bold Text[/b]
'''This text isn't bold because
it crosses a line boundary'''
[b]This text is still bold even
though it crosses a line boundary[/b]
Italics - Two methods, similar to bold.
1. Place a '' (two single quotes) before and after the selection.
2. Start with [italic] and end with [/italic].
''''Italicized Text''''
[italic]Italicized Text[/italic]
''This text isn't italicized because
it crosses a line boundary''
[italic]This text is still italicized even
though it crosses a line boundary[/italic]
Strikethrough - Start with [strike] and end with [/strike]
[strike]Text modified using strikethrough[/strike]
Subscript - Start with [sub] and end with [/sub]
[sub]Subscripted Text[/sub]
Superscript - Start with [sup] and end with [/sup]
[sup]Superscripted text[/sup]
There are five text sizes available. To modify your text's size, start with [size=x], where x equals a number from 1 to 5, and end with [/size].
[size=1]Size 1 example[/size]
[size=2]Size 2 example[/size]
[size=3]Size 3 example[/size]
[size=4]Size 4 example[/size]
[size=5]Size 5 example[/size]
There are also several text colors to choose from.
[black]Black text[/black]
[blue]Blue text[/blue]
[green]Green text[/green]
[grey]Grey text[/grey]
[gray]Grey text[/gray]
[purple]Purple text[/purple]
[red]Red text[/red]
[white]White text[/white] <- You can't see it, but trust me: it's white!
[yellow]Yellow text[/yellow]
Typewriter Text - To use the typewriter font, use [tt] and [/tt]. As you can see, the text is quite small. It's a good idea to enlarge the font by using the [size=2] tag inside the typewriter tag.
[tt]Typewritten text[/tt]
[tt][size=2]Enlarged typewritten text[/size][/tt]
To create a space that the browser will neither collapse nor break the line on, use [space]. For those HTML gurus, [space] is the same as in standard HTML.
