If you want to add special formatting, links or pictures, there are two ways to
add these:
1. Use the editing toolbar
If you're using a recent web browser, you'll see a word processor-style editing
toolbar on your Write a New Entry page.
If you don't see a toolbar, consider updating your web browser. For example, on
Windows, you can
download the latest
version
of Internet Explorer for free.
(Which web browsers
can I use?)
2. Type some simple "tags"
For example, let's say you want a phrase to appear in bold. Type the beginning tag
"<strong>" before the phrase and type the ending tag "</strong>" after
the phrase.
For example, say you type: <strong>This is bold</strong>
This is what you will see: This is bold

These tags are part of HTML (HyperText Markup Language), which is used to write
web content. To learn more about HTML and other tags, see a
HTML tutorial
