Hmm... weird. "Meow" I have heard before - from a cat lor, haha. "Pang chan" you don't know ah? Then you cannot be a <I>"kucing Singapura"</I> (Singapore cat). It is our colloquial Hokkien for "give chance".<BR/><BR/>To italize words, just enclose them between [i] and [/i] but remember to replace "[" with "<" and "]" with ">". These are called "HTML tags".<BR/><BR/>I can't show them here as they are because they will be interpreted by the browser and you won't be able to see the tags but their effects. Do you see the instruction on how to use HTML tags just above this box? The 1st one is for <B>bold</B>, the 2nd one is for <I>italics</I>, while the 3rd one is for providing a HTML link (for advance users because this is slightly more complicated). The first 2 are called "opening tags" for bold and italics respectively. Put a "/" in front of the letter "b" and "i" and you have the respective "closing tags".<BR/><BR/>Let's try it out:<BR/><BR/>[i]italics words[/i]<BR/><BR/>[b]bold words[/b]<BR/><BR/>If you have replaced [ ] with < > in the above 2 lines, you will see this:<BR/><BR/><I>italics words</I><BR/><BR/><B>bold words</B><BR/><BR/>Happy experimenting.Victorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10339178864363140977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13303109.post-59857488428804087162007-03-21T22:58:00.000+08:002007-03-21T22:58:00.000+08:00That was me by the way - dawnThat was me by the way - dawnAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13303109.post-82732693598020824652007-03-21T22:57:00.000+08:002007-03-21T22:57:00.000+08:00Haha a cat named "meow"...
