Do a search at the top right of the FR home page for HTML. You should find several links to posting tips.

Just search what you are trying to do i.e post image html and use this site. Got the suggestion here years ago.
THIS | IS |
A | TABLE |
<table border=1> <tr>lt;td>THIS<td>lt;td>IS<td> <tr>lt;td>A<td>lt;td>TABLE<td> <table>
I have some experience using/writing HTML. FR accepts/uses just the HTML basics. If you include CSS or Javascript in your submitted HTML, you’re going to be disappointed.
For an example of nested tables that FR will accept and render well, check out the posts at the FReeper Canteen:

Years ago I determined that FR was optimized for Firefox and IE was hosed. I ‘fixed’ it , and still do it, by doing the pages on my site and putting only a link to it on FR. It appears, by what you describe, it is still the case, i.e., FR does not care about IE or other browsers.

Compose your post using something like Microsoft Word. Save the file as HTML. Open that file in a a text editor like Notepad, then copy all of that gibberish into the FR post.
