One of those “Test Posts”

Sunday, November 30th, 2003 at 1800

This is going to be ugly, I just know it.
I discovered by log had all sorts of lovly buttons for adding effects and whatnot to posts. Thing is, I don’t know what they do, or what the CSS will make them look like.
So, here’s the experiment. You’ll see a load of gibberish or unstyled mess. I’ll be using them to identify exactly what they do and then, hopefully, making them look nice while they do it.

Bold Text.
Italic Text
Del (Dunno what this is supposed to do!)
Ins (Again, don’t know)

  • List item UL list
  1. List item OL list

Blockquote, wheeee!

Pre formatted? Code perhaps...

That’s it. Now I’m off to try and fix the CSS :)

EDIT: Well, initial inspection seems DEL is striketrhough, INS is underline (Can’t explain why though) and the lists work. Blockquote is knackered, PRE is too small by half, but other than that, it’s not too bad. Super.

    Oi? Where’s the FAQ then ??? :)
    Just a test for all those nice fields to fill in…

    blockquote isn’t knackered, the idea is that you put a few lines within the blockquote tags, and it lets the user know that the text is quoted.

    If you try and do the blockquote example with a few lines, you should see a vertical line alongside the text.
