For those who aren't sure of the syntax, this might help.
The basics...
<strong>bold</strong> = bold
<em>italics</em> = italics
<code>code</code> = code
"Unordered Lists"
<ul><li>apple</li>
<li>banana</li>
<li>orange</li></ul> =
"Ordered Lists"
<ol><li>first</li>
<li>second</li>
<li>third</li></ol> =
if you are curious - em = "emphasis", and li = "list item"
Thanks Bubby
I guess now I really don't have anymore excuses for not having learned at least the simplest of all HTML.... sigh....
Aaaargh... "I don't want to learn any "new finangled" fancy-pants computer lingo... I'm just here for the money!!" LOL ;-)
But look.... I did it! And it only hurt slightly. Thanks again for the gentle edu-nudge
BuBBy, I finaly read your PM which you sent to me three months ago. Sorry it took so long.
Thank you for the information. I've been longing to be able to break up all that text I write, lol

Yeah, it worked, thank you thank you thank you.
It's not disimilar to what UI use elsewhere though for italics I use i for <> I use [] etc etc

If you are running Firefox as a browser, The following extension can be a big help and can make things a lot easier - when dealing with web links.
checking it out.....thanks bubby!
@BuBBy
Thanks for the firefox xpi link !
Also take a look at Try-It-Yourself!
I guess you have heaps of useful firefox extension links...
Would you mind telling us your favorite ones?
Bubby - Thanks for the link to Colt. I wish I would have had this yesterday when I was compiling the post for Buyers Tools for Deals, Coupons, Reviews and Searching.
MrB has posted about CoLT a couple of times already.
It seems very interesting. It's already in my folder "FF stuff to install" since January.
But... my poor FF has already too many extensions - it has become too slôôôw. I've tried to uninstall a few, I really did, but been unsuccessful. I've looked and looked at my DumpList - I need them all!! A conundrum!! Just managed to disable ~3 or 4, but didn't uninstall any 8-(
Have already ordered more RAM for both laptops and a bigger HD for mine, plus a 1T MyBook to dump all the PC's back-ups in.
GOTD is a blessing AND a curse!! Damn you!!! I've been spending so much money in hardware & software since I've started coming here... You don't want to know!!
I think TPTB should demand a subsidy from these companies for making us buy so much stuff. It's quite sneaky, me thinks! It could turn out to be a great mktg strategy ;-)
We are supposed to post all our favourite/installed Add-ons, Extensions & Search Engines, to help each other compare & discover. Well... Nobody has had the time either!
I hardly have the time to look out the window!! Sad, I know...
I'm sure we'll do it soon =³0³= It's the when part is fuzzy, though! ;x)
I will have to explore this further!
I just got thru copy and paste 101!
You can go to alot of sites, but this one is the best for help!
Thank you all!!!! Now will someone please come over and install my 320 gig internal hard drive????

I've got a text file I use to collect url's and snippets in, I've added <a href="">G What is it 00</a> to it as a fast template, so I can copy/paste it to the edit pane, copy/paste in the url between the "" 's and update the text.
also <em></em>, <blockquote></blockquote>, and <strong></strong>- plus a pair of backticks.
to say I don't type well anymore is a cosmic class understatement.
