On the image tag, you don’t need to have a separate closing tag, you can just add a / after the “ closing the url. Example:
(img src=”imageurl.com/image.jpg”/)

Firefox makes HTML easy with these addons:

BBCodeXtra is an extension, compatible with Mozilla FireFox and Mozilla Suite, which adds to the context menu new commands to insert BBCode/Html/XHtml codes in an easy and fast way.

BBCode - Adds BBCode, HTML, XHTML & Symbols formatting to the context menu for Blogs and forums (PHPBB and others).

These are essentially the same but each has a couple of extra features not found in the other.

Word Count Plus — Counts the number of words in selected text - great to avoid cutting and pasting and then finding out you exceeded the number of words (usually 300) allowed for excerpts from copyrighted material.

THANKS TONS.

1. I put the copyright list in Word in 3 columns and printed for easy ref.

2. The last month or so, “navy” as color can end up green when other colors are put below it. I have to use “000066” to get it to stay navy. I have no idea why.

3. I understand that fonts are a function of one’s browser and settings etc. However, clearly some of the Word fonts work and some do not even in IE8 . . . I don’t know about Firefox, I haven’t dinked around much with fonts and Firefox.

4. If anyone has a list of viable easy to read fonts that also have some uniqueness—that work on FR with IE8, I’d be thrilled to have such a list. Have gone through all the Word fonts I was interested and laboriouisly tried them on FR in IE8 . . . a small percentage worked. And now I’ve misplaced that list. Silly me.

It would be great if you’d put the primer up on

TABLES

as well as colored borders for tables

. . .

as well as background colors with some attention as to easy on the eyes colors for backgrounds. Supposedly some research suggests that dark backgrounds and light text is physiologically easier and less tiring on the eyes. That’s why the founders of ATS (AboveTopSecret.com) use black background and grey text as their default. May be but I still like light background and black or navy text. LOL.

If you do the tables primer . . . it would be nice to also know how to size the tables and pair them so that a left side, e.g. which has a bigger paragraph is still kept next to a right side which has a short paragraph in some sort of reasonable proportion—if I’m making sense.

Thanks for the helpful summary.

It would be helpful if you could describe how to include tables.
