HTML or Wiki code

With a few exceptions, Both HTML and/or Wiki code can be used and mixed on the same page.

It is recommended that HTML be used for advanced formatting and to create tables.

The following HTML tags are supported:

  <br> <i> <u> <sup> <sub> <table> <tr> <td> <th> <a> <br> 
  <font> <img> <div> <ul> <li> <ol> <center> <span> <hr>  
  <h1> <h2> <h2>

Forms and scripts are not permitted and the following HTML tags are disabled:

  <body> <head> <style> <form>

Please contact us if you believe a certain tag is missing and should be supported.

Wiki Code must be used for the Title and Meta tags below:

Title tag

(:title text:): Sets a page's title to be something other than the page's name. The title text can contain apostrophes and other special characters. Insert the title tag anywhere on the page.

Meta Keywords tag

(:keywords word1, word2, ...:): Identifies keywords associated with the page. These are not displayed anywhere, but are useful to help search engines locate the page. (Essentially, this generates a :<meta name='keywords' content='...' />: element in the output.). Insert the keywords tag anywhere on the page.

Meta Description tag

(:description text:): Descriptive text associated with the page. (Generates a :<meta name='description' content='...' />: element in the page output.). Insert the description tag anywhere on the page.

Wiki Code Essentials

Wiki code emulates HTML code

Basic Text Formatting:

To start a new paragraph or line insert a blank line or place \\ at the end of a line.

Use -> at the beginning of a line to indent text.

'''bold''' 3 apostrophies to bold

''italic''' 2 apostrophies for italics

!Heading 1 exclamation mark for an H1 heading

!!Heading 2 exclamation marks for an H2 heading

!!!Heading 3 exclamation marks for an H3 heading

Start a line with a * to make a bullet list:
* one star for a 1st level indent
** two stars for 2nd level indent
*** three stars for 3rd level indent
* one star for a 1st level indent

* one star for a 1st level indent
- ** two stars for 2nd level indent
  - *** three stars for 3rd level indent
* one star for a 1st level indent

Start a line with a # to make a numbered list:

one # for a 1st level indent
1. two ## for 2nd level indent
  1. three ### for 3rd level indent
  2. three ### for 3rd level indent
one # for a 1st level indent

External Links must start with an `http://`

Format: [[ http://sitename.com | anchor text]]

Example: [[http://www.google.com | Great Search Engine]] creates Great Search Engine

Use `%newwin%` before the link to open in a new window.

Example: %newwin% [[http://www.google.com | Great Search Engine]] opens Great Search Engine in a new window.
