LindaS....
 
... I noticed that you posted some messages on this forum that had formatted (like BOLD, large/color font) text. How did you do that?

Thanks,

Jose'

not Lynda but:
to bold: type these symbols: < then a b then a >
to end bold type a < then a / then a b then a >
italics: same only substitute the b for an i
for colors substite the b with the color-red would be < red > to end would be < / red >

Not Lynda either, but just wanted to add that you'd type the < b > or < / b > without the spaces in between.

... and if anyone knows how to:
a) get large fonts sizes
b) hyperlink text to a website

...I'd appreciate also.

Press your browser's &quot;Back&quot; button until it displays the Preview pane (not the editing window). Press &quot;Edit.&quot; Make your changes, and hit &quot;Post my message.&quot; Added this AFTER my third post tonight. WIll it create a 4th?

Ok, I'm in for the 5th post, but &quot;only&quot; 3 showing - so my error was, I forgot to edit my reply on #2.

Darn, I thought I had it figured out how to edit after posting, but apparently not!

Sorry for the &quot;almost&quot; duplicate posting above!

Just for the record, I've found at the site below a complete list of the posting formatting options available for the Fodors Forum:
