Using HTML

The Ideal BB allows you to use HTML to format your posts.  This page will help you design your posts by detailing the codes that are available and the syntax that you need in order to use them.

Note: It is possible that the administrator of this board has limited the number of tags that you can use in your posts.  You can determine which tags are prohibited by viewing the tag box to the left of the new post window.

<p>    Paragraph tag.  This tag will create a new paragraph. 

<b>    This tag will create bold text after the tag.  You will need to use the </b> end tag to terminate the bold text.  For example:

<b>This is bold text</b> this is not bold text.

<i>    This tag will create italic text after the tag.  You will need to use the </i> end tag to terminate the italic text.  For example:

<i>This is italic text</i> this is not italic text.

Hyperlink    This tag will create a hyperlink.  You will need to use the following syntax in order to correctly construct a hyperlink.  For example:

<a href="http://www.idealbb.com">This is a link to domain</a>  will create: This is a link to a domain

<ul>
<li> List Item 1</li>
<li> List Item 2 </li>
<li> List Item 3 </li>
</ul>

 

       
  • List Item 1
