Although AutoPage-Plus formats your webpage(s) automatically for you, additional control over the formatting & appearance of the text within your webpage(s) may be achieved through the use of some basic HTML tags.
Simply type the appropriate HTML tag (exactly as it appears in the examples below) into any text area of the AutoPage-Plus on-line form. Then click on the [ Make Webpage ] button located at the bottom of the on-line form to save your work.
That's all there is to it!
HTML Formatting Tags:
To Make New Paragraph: enclose a capital P between great than & less than signs < > .
Example:
<P> <- this starts a new paragraphTo Make New Line: enclose capital BR between great than & less than signs < > .
Example:
<BR> <- this starts a new lineTo Bold Text enclose capital B between great than & less than signs << >> . turn it off by enclosing capital /B between great than & less than signs < > . Notice that the slash/ shuts it off.
Example:
<B> <- this starts bolding
</B> <- this shuts off boldingTo Underline Text enclose capital U between great than & less than signs < > . turn it off by enclosing capital /U between great than & less than signs < > . Notice that the slash/ shuts it off.
Example:
<U> <- this starts underlining
</U> <- this shuts off underliningTo Italicize Text enclose capital I between great than & less than signs < > . turn it off by enclosing capital /I between great than & less than signs < > . Notice that the slash/ shuts it off.
Example:
<I> <- this starts italics
</I> <- this shuts off italicsTo Center Text enclose the word CENTER I between great than & less than signs < > . turn it off by enclosing capital /CENTER between great than & less than signs < > . Notice that the slash/ shuts it off.
Example:
<CENTER> <- this starts centering
</CENTER> <- this shuts off centeringTo Bullet: enclose capital LI between great than & less than signs < > .
Example:
<LI> <- this inserts a bulletTo Bullet With Indentation: enclose capital UL between great than & less than signs < >. then at the beginning of each bulleted line enclose capital LI between great than & less than signs < > .
don't forget to turn off the indentation when your done bulleting by enclosing capital /UL between great than & less than signs < > . Notice that the slash/ shuts it off.
Example:
<UL> <- this starts indentation
<LI> <- this is my first bulleted line
<LI> <- this is my second bulleted line
</UL> <- this is shuts off indentationIMPORTANT NOTES:
With the exception of the <P> <BR> & <LI> tags, you must be sure to use the backslash ( / ) with the appropriate tag to shut the HTML coding tag off. If your webpage comes out looking funny, chances are you have a typo in your HTML tags or you forgot to shut the tag off. The only solution in this case is for you to trouble shoot all appropriate HTML tags you are using!You must NEVER use any HTML tags within your AutoPage-Plus online form(s) which contains an equals "=" sign. For security reasons, the AutoPage system will not record anything located after the equals "=" sign to the database. If you do use anything with an equals sign "=", the results will be that, the next time you go to make modifications to that webpage, your info will have disappeared.
