How do you do the accent mark?
I wanted to, but don’t know how.

Just copy and paste mine. That should work.

I used a keystroke (option key), on my mac.

Regarding accent mark: Jane's idea of using cut and paste will work, but what if you need a letter other than 'e' accented?

Here's the simple trick to use to accent any letter:

1. Type the word that contains the accented letter up to the accented letter.

2. Type an ampersand.

3. Type the letter you want accented.

4. Type the word 'acute'.

5. Type a semicolon, ';'.

6. Finish typing the word.

When you click on Preview the letter should be accented.

Put all together:  d& eacute;plorable.

I had to put a space after the ampersand to prevent the browser from accenting the letter. Don't type the space when you do it.
