• Web page addresses and e-mail addresses turn into links automatically.

• Allowed HTML tags: <a> <em> <strong> <cite> <code> <ul> <ol> <li> <dl> <dt> <dd> <embed> <object> <script>

  This site allows HTML content. While learning all of HTML may feel intimidating, learning how to use a very small number of the most basic HTML "tags" is very easy. This table provides examples for each tag that is enabled on this site.

  For more information see W3C's HTML Specifications or use your favorite search engine to find other sites that explain HTML.

  Tag Description	You Type	You Get
  Anchors are used to make links to other pages.	<a href="http://www.nazgee.eu">www.nazgee.eu</a>	www.nazgee.eu

  Definition lists are similar to other HTML lists. <dl> begins the definition list, <dt> begins the definition term and <dd> begins the definition description.	<dl> <dt>First term</dt> <dd>First definition</dd> <dt>Second term</dt> <dd>Second definition</dd> </dl>	First term First definition Second term Second definition

  Most unusual characters can be directly entered without any problems.

  If you do encounter problems, try using HTML character entities. A common example looks like &amp; for an ampersand & character. For a full list of entities see HTML's entities page. Some of the available characters include:

  Character Description	You Type	You Get
  Ampersand	&	&
  Greater than	>	>
  Less than	&lt;	<
  Quotation mark	&quot;	"

• Lines and paragraphs are automatically recognized. The <br /> line break, <p> paragraph and </p> close paragraph tags are inserted automatically. If paragraphs are not recognized simply add a couple blank lines.

• Syntax highlighting of source code can be enabled with the following tags:

  • Generic syntax highlighting tags: "<code>", "<blockcode>".
  • Language specific syntax highlighting tags: "<bash>" for Bash source code, "<c>" for C source code, "<cpp>" for C++ source code, "<diff>" for Diff source code, "<java>" for Java source code, "<make>" for GNU make source code.

  Options and tips:

  • The language for the generic syntax highlighting tags can be specified with one of the attribute(s): type, lang, language, class. The possible values are: "bash" (for Bash), "c" (for C), "cpp" (for C++), "diff" (for Diff), "java" (for Java), "make" (for GNU make).
  • The supported tag styles are: <foo>, [foo].
  • Line numbering can be enabled/disabled with the attribute "linenumbers". Possible values are: "off" for no line numbers, "normal" for normal line numbers and "fancy" for fancy line numbers (every n^th line number highlighted). The start line number can be specified with the attribute "start", which implicitly enables normal line numbering. For fancy line numbering the interval for the highlighted line numbers can be specified with the attribute "fancy", which implicitly enables fancy line numbering.
  • If the source code between the tags contains a newline (e.g. immediatly after the opening tag), the highlighted source code will be displayed as a code block. Otherwise it will be displayed inline.

  Defaults:

  • Default highlighting mode for generic syntax highlighting tags: the default language used for syntax highlighting is "make".
  • Default line numbering: no line numbers.

  Examples:

  You type	You get
  <code>foo = "bar";</code>	Inline code with the default syntax highlighting mode.
  <code> foo = "bar"; baz = "foz"; </code>	Code block with the default syntax highlighting mode.
  <code lang="cpp" linenumbers="normal"> foo = "bar"; baz = "foz"; </code>	Code block with syntax highlighting for C++ source code and normal line numbers.
  <code language="cpp" start="23" fancy="7"> foo = "bar"; baz = "foz"; </code>	Code block with syntax highlighting for C++ source code, line numbers starting from 23 and highlighted line numbers every 7th line.
  <bash> foo = "bar"; baz = "foz"; </bash>	Code block with syntax highlighting for Bash source code.
  <bash start="23" fancy="7"> foo = "bar"; baz = "foz"; <bash>	Code block with syntax highlighting for Bash source code, line numbers starting from 23 and highlighted line numbers every 7th line.

  Insert view filter allows to embed views using tags. The tag syntax is relatively simple: [view:name=display=args]

  For example [view:tracker=page=1] says, embed a view named "tracker", use the "page" display, and supply the argument "1".

  The display and args parameters can be omitted. If the display is left empty, the view's default display is used.

  Multiple arguments are separated with slash. The args format is the same as used in the URL (or view preview screen).

  Valid examples:

  [view:my_view]

  [view:my_view=my_display]

  [view:my_view=my_display=arg1/arg2/arg3]

  [view:my_view==arg1/arg2/arg3]
