Text Formatting
- How to create bold, italic and underlined text
- BBCode includes tags to allow
you to quickly change the basic style of your text. This
is achieved in the following ways:
- To make a piece of text
bold enclose it in [b][/b], e.g.
[b]Hello[/b]
will become Hello - For underlining use
[u][/u], for example:
[u]Good Morning[/u]
becomes Good Morning - To italicise text use
[i][/i], e.g.
This is [i]Great![/i]
would give This is Great!
- To make a piece of text
bold enclose it in [b][/b], e.g.
- Top
- How to change the text colour or size
- To alter the colour or size of
your text the following tags can be used. Keep in mind
that how the output appears will depend on the viewers
browser and system:
- Changing the colour of text
is achieved by wrapping it in
[color=][/color]. You can specify either a
recognised colour name (eg. red, blue, yellow, etc.)
or the hexadecimal triplet alternative, e.g. #FFFFFF,
#000000. For example, to create red text you could
use:
[color=red]Hello![/color]
or
[color=#FF0000]Hello![/color]
Both will output Hello! - Changing the text size is
achieved in a similar way using
[size=][/size]. This tag is dependent on
the template the user has selected but the
recommended format is a numerical value representing
the text size in percent, starting at 20 (very
small) through to 200 (very large) by default. For
example:
[size=30]SMALL[/size]
will generally be SMALL
whereas:
[size=200]HUGE![/size]
will be HUGE!
- Changing the colour of text
is achieved by wrapping it in
[color=][/color]. You can specify either a
recognised colour name (eg. red, blue, yellow, etc.)
or the hexadecimal triplet alternative, e.g. #FFFFFF,
#000000. For example, to create red text you could
use:
- Top
- Can I combine formatting tags?
- Yes, of course you can, for
example to get someone's attention you may write:
[size=200][color=red][b]LOOK AT ME![/b][/color][/size]
this would output LOOK AT ME!
We don’t recommend you output lots of text that looks like this though! Remember it is up to you, the poster, to ensure tags are closed correctly. For example the following is incorrect:
[b][u]This is wrong[/b][/u]
CREATING LINKS
- Linking to another site
- ROMANCECLUB
BBCode supports a number of ways of
creating URIs (Uniform Resource
Indicators) better known as URLs.
- The
first of these uses the
[url=][/url] tag,
whatever you type after the =
sign will cause the contents of
that tag to act as a URL. For
example to link to
ROMANCECLUB.com you could use:
[url=http://www.ROMANCECLUB.com/]Visit ROMANCECLUB![/url]
This would generate the following link, Visit ROMANCECLUB! Please notice that the link opens in the same window or a new window depending on the users browser preferences. - If you
want the URL itself displayed as
the link you can do this by
simply using:
[url]http://www.ROMANCECLUB.com/[/url]
This would generate the following link, http://www.ROMANCECLUB.com/ - Additionally, ROMANCECLUB features something called Magic Links, this will turn any syntactically correct URL into a link without you needing to specify any tags or even the leading http://. For example typing www.ROMANCECLUB.com into your message will automatically lead to www.ROMANCECLUB.com being output when you view the message.
- The
same thing applies equally to
e-mail addresses, you can either
specify an address explicitly
for example:
[email]no.one@domain.adr[/email]
which will output no.one@domain.adr or you can just type no.one@domain.adr into your message and it will be automatically converted when you view.
[url=http://www.google.com/][img]http://www.google.com/intl/en_ALL/images/logo.gif[/url][/img]
is not correct which may lead to your post being deleted so take care. - The
first of these uses the
[url=][/url] tag,
whatever you type after the =
sign will cause the contents of
that tag to act as a URL. For
example to link to
ROMANCECLUB.com you could use:
