These rules are not a matter of taste, style, or preference... they're a matter of conformance to standards.
b | Bold. Renders current font as boldface. | <b>This is bolded</b> appears as This is bolded | |||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
i | Italic. Renders current font in italics. | <i>This is italicized</i> appears as This is italicized | |||||||||
em | Phrase element meaning "emphasis". Generally rendered by browsers in italics. | <em>This is emphasized</em> appears as This is emphasized | |||||||||
strong | Phrase element meaning "strong emphasis". Generally rendered by browsers in boldface. | <strong>This is strongly emphasized</strong> appears as This is strongly emphasized | |||||||||
sup | Superscript | Bob<sup>1</sup> appears as Bob1 | |||||||||
sub | Subscript | Bob<sub>1</sub> appears as Bob1 | |||||||||
tt | Teletype font. Rendered in browser's default fixed-width font. | <tt>This is teletype</tt> appears as This is teletype | |||||||||
pre | Preformatted text. Generally rendered in browser's default fixed-width font, with whitespace intact, and automatic word wrap disabled. Generally browsers render all whitespace within this tag, and add padding before and after the tagged text. This is not a quick and dirty alternative to tables! Use if for code snippets, data file snippets, etc. |
<pre> This is preformatted text. 53.6 82.1 536.3 8.53 137.6 66.3 </pre>appears as This is preformatted text. 53.6 82.1 536.3 8.53 137.6 66.3 Whereas without the PRE tag, you'd get this: This is preformatted text. 53.6 82.1 536.3 8.53 137.6 66.3 |
|||||||||

Deborah Lee Soltesz | 2005-10-31 | Fixed format instructions for @history (date and author were inverted) |
Deborah Lee Soltesz | 2006-06-05 | Updated @image use instructions and conventions |
Deborah Lee Soltesz | 2006-07-29 | Update CVS tags described in the guide so that CVS wouldn't automatically replace the tag with actual information when this document is checked in. (Replaced $ signs with ISO8859-1 entity, treating the $s as special characters). |
