HTML for Posters

     In posting to sites that use HTML coding (e.g. Zoetrope,
Egoless, etc.) we need to keep things simple.  In fact,
this is about all the HTML we really need to know:


BOLD - To bold text put <B> before the text that you want
       highlighted and then </B> when you want the bolding
       to end.  For example:

           This won't be bolded <B>but this will</B>.

ITALICS - To italicize anything type <I> before the text
       you want italicized and </I> when you want that
       effect to end.  For example:

           This won't be in italics <I>but this will</I>.

UNDERLINE - To underline text merely put <U> where you 
       want the underlining to begin, </U> where you want 
       it to end.  For example:

           Only <U>this</U> will be underlined.

COLOURS - To change text colour start with:    <FONT COLOR =
       Add your colour in quotation marks:  e.g. "Blue"
       Then end with a closing slant bracket:          >
       At the end of all your colouring type:  </FONT>
       
<FONT COLOR = "Red">This is red, <FONT COLOR = "Black">while
this text is black. </FONT>

       Note that you must use the U.S. spelling of "color".
       Select your colour from these options:

       Aqua      Black     Blue     Fuchsia
       Grey      Green     Lime     Maroon
       Navy      Olive     Purple   Red
       Teal      White     Silver   Yellow
     
INDENTING - The recommended method requires that we know
       the background colour on which your text will
       appear.  For most sites, including Egoless and
       Zoetrope, this is white.  The trick is to make
       your text the background colour, type in some
       filler characters (which will not appear on the
       screen in the final output since it is the same
       colour as the background;  e.g. white on white)
       and then change back to your normal text colour
       (e.g. black).  For example:

  <FONT COLOR = "White">_____<FONT COLOR = "Black">And
       now we start typing our text.  Those underscores
       will not appear on a white background.

     You can vary the length of the indent by inserting
more or fewer underscores between <FONT COLOR = "White">
and <FONT COLOR = "Black">.

FORMATTING - If you would like text to align vertically
       you can enclose it (in whole or part) in <PRE> and
       </PRE> tags.  This will allow reliable spacing 
       and vertical alignment o
