Form Entry Formatting Tips
You have probably noticed that no matter how many carraige returns or extra
spaces you include in your form entries, they always come out as one block of
text. Here are some tips for getting your text to look pretty:
Making text in an announcement a link
If you are posting a URL in an announcement, and you would like to make it a link
so people can jump right to the web location, surround it with anchor tags:
<a href="http://www.theURL.com">www.theURL.com</a>
For example, if you type:
<a href="http://www.perezkrewe.com">www.perezkrewe.com</a>
|
You will get:
If you want a hard carriage return to be displayed,
type break tags ("<BR>") wherever you want to see the carriage return.
You can type multiple break tags in a row if you want to see blank lines.
For example, if you type:
V
This is sample text.
I'm hoping my carriage return will show up.
|
You will get:
|
This is sample text.
I'm hoping my carriage return will show up.
|
HOWEVER, if you type:
This is sample text.<BR><BR>
I'm hoping my carriage return will show up.
|
You will get:
This is sample text.
I'm hoping my carriage return will show up.
|
If you want extra spaces in between words,
type non-breaking space indicators (" ") wherever you want
to see an extra space.
For example:
These spaces
will
collapse<BR>
but
these spaces
will appear.

Will be displayed as:
These spaces will collapse
but
these spaces
will appear.
