This site allows HTML content. While learning all of HTML may feel intimidating, learning how to use a very small number of the most basic HTML "tags" is very easy. This table provides examples for each tag that is enabled on this site.
For more information see W3C's HTML Specifications or use your favorite search engine to find other sites that explain HTML.

Most unusual characters can be directly entered without any problems.
If you do encounter problems, try using HTML character entities. A common example looks like & for an ampersand & character. For a full list of entities see HTML's entities page. Some of the available characters include:
| Character Description | You Type | You Get |
|---|---|---|
| Ampersand | & | & |
| Greater than | > | > |
| Less than | < | < |
| Quotation mark | " | " |
Gallery2 Filter:
You can link to items in your embedded Gallery2 using a special code. This code will be replaced by a thumbnail image that is linked to the actual item in your Gallery.
Syntax: [G2: item_id n= number type= type size= number class= name frame= name album_frame= name item_frame= name ]
To add a lightbox to your images, add rel="lightbox" attribute to any link tag to activate the lightbox. For example:
<a href="image-1.jpg" rel="lightbox">image #1</a>
<a href="image-1.jpg" rel="lightbox[][my caption]">image #1</a>
To show a caption either use the title attribute or put in the second set of square brackets of the rel attribute.
If you have a set of related images that you would like to group, then you will need to include a group name between square brackets in the rel attribute. For example:
<a href="image-1.jpg" rel="lightbox[roadtrip]">image #1</a>
<a href="image-2.jpg" rel="lightbox[roadtrip][caption 2]">image #2</a>
<a href="image-3.jpg" rel="lightbox[roadtrip][caption 3]">image #3</a>
There are no limits to the number of image sets per page or how many images are allowed in each set.
If you wish to turn the caption into a link, format your caption in the following way:
<a href="image-1.jpg" rel='lightbox[][<a href="http://www.yourlink.com">View Image Details</a>]' >image #1</a>
Quoted content can be placed between [quote] tags in order to be displayed as an indented quote. Every [quote] tag must have a corresponding [/quote] tag. For example:
[quote]This is a simple quote.[/quote]is displayed as:
Additionally, there is an optional attribute which allows quotes to specify the original author.
[quote=Mr. Drupal]This is a quote with an attribution line.[/quote]is displayed as:
Finally, multiple [quote] tags can be nested within one another. Just remember that every [quote] tag must have a corresponding [/quote] tag.
[quote]I think she says it best... [quote=Ms. Quotation]This is a quote nested within another quote.[/quote] but you can't argue with [quote=Ms. Reply]The more quotes, the merrier. Just don't get too carried away.[/quote] And I have nothing more to say.[/quote]is displayed as:
