Basic HTML Formatting

Basic HTML Formatting

You may want to use a few basic html tags when formatting the text in your description or article fields if you want text to be italicized, bolded, or used as a subhead.

The html formatting tags consist of a start tag and an end tag. Any text placed between the start and end tags will use the specified formatting.

If you forget the end tag, any text after the start tag will have the special formatting. You will know that you have forgotten the end tag when you go to the website and the formatting on the page looks "weird." Don't panic. Just decide where the "weirdness" starts, then go and put in your end tag.

Common tags


1. For bold text use:
<b>Your text</b>


2. For italics use:
<i>Your text</i>


3. For subheads use
<h2>Your text</h2>


For a smaller subhead use
<h3>Your text</h3>


Bulleted Lists


You can create a bulleted list in the Site Manager using one of these methods:
    1. Copy and paste a bulleted list you've already created in a text-editing program such as Word.

    2. If you've already entered text into the Site Manager field and you need to add bullets, copy and paste the bullet from a text-editing program.
