In order to help people maximize their content on this forum, I decided to start a discussion on HTML tips. Some of it I've shared over the years in other discussions.
This will allow an opportunity to not only allow learning but also try it out without disrupting other discussions. As well, I have yet to learn all the HTML tags supported by this community. Feel free to add to the list. Saving Changes...

If bolfacing and italicizing your text is too tame for your taste, you can always colour your text.
This is another tag that can be simple or complicated. The simple form looks like this.
<font color="text colour">coloured text</font>
Where text colour can be red, blue, yellow, magenta, etc. Coloured text is the text upon which you want to apply the selected text colour.
If you want finer control, you will want to use the hexadecimal colour number (like "#ff0000") or the RGB combination number (like "rgb(255,0,0)"), in place of the text colour. Get yourself an HTML colour codes chart so you can have the right coordinates.
Happy colouring!
Stephane
It's not working - I put the following: font color="Re d"TEST/font
Of course I did red as on word but I separated it so I can show you what I wrote and you tell me where I went wrong.
Thanks RK

Thanks, George. I do like the title attribute. Like the alt attribute for the img tag, it is a great accessibility tool.

Sorry hear with me here as I am not very well versed in HTML. I clicked this and it took me to the same post so did not quite understand what it does exactly ? Can you elaborate ?
Thanks

Hi Stephane,
I thought I would add one that I have used in the past – Hover Text

Hey Rami. Move your cursor over the link but don't click. When you "hover" over the link, a text box will appear.

Thank you Stephane. It is probably because I was looking from my iPad. Will check from my desktop tomorrow.
