3.1  Styling

You can add style to your text by using the bold/italics/underline commands or by choosing a specific colour for a portion of the text.

In order to perform these commands, we need to use a particular syntax for the forum.

This syntax is automatically performed by the three button B,I,U available from the Reply box.

bold italic underligne

See also the colour commands in the toolbar:

couleur

To apply a specific style (eg.bold), you need to:

- Select the text that you want to modify. - click on the command button (eg. button B) The text will be preceeded and followed by two tags (eg. [b] and [/b])

To apply a specific colour (eg.red), follow the same instructions:

- Select the text that you want to modify. - In the toolbar, click on the colour of your choice (eg. click at the far left of the colour comands) The text will be preceeded and followed by two tags : [#CODE] and [/#CODE]. Instead of "CODE", you will read a hexadecimal combination which is an HTML colour command. (eg. The red colour is interpreted by the code "FF0000". The two tags will be [#FF0000] and [/#FF0000]) You do not necessarily need to click on the buttons. All you have to do is to directly type the two tags in your message. Here is a non exhaustive list of the tags and their action:

- [b]text[/b] : bold

- [i]text[/i] : italic

- [u]text[/u] : underlined

- [#FF0000]text[/#FF0000] : colour "FF0000" (red)
