To format characters and
paragraphs to be displayed on a web browser, you need to use HTML
(Hypertext Markup Language) codes. Most HTML codes come in pairs. For example,
to apply bold face to the word rheology, one will
type <b>rheology</b>. Note that the pair of codes encloses
the item to be formatted. The only difference between the starting code and the
ending code is the forward slash (/) in the ending code.
Listed below are the HTML codes that you can use to format your text. HTML codes
not listed will be filtered out. The filtering module will recognize the allowed
HTML codes in either lower case or upper case, but not in mixed
case. For example, <sub> or <SUB> will work but <Sub>, <SUb>,
<SuB>, <sUb>, <sUB>, or <suB> will not.

Type <b>chemical</b> to get chemical. |
|
Type <i>biological</i> to get biological. |
|
Type <u>engineering</u> to get engineering. |
|
Type x<sup>3</sup> to get x3. |
|
Type y<sub>4</sub> to get y4. |
|
Type <u><i><b>molecular</b></i></u>
to get molecular. |

Enter <br> at the location where you want the line break.

...</li><li>Item 3 ... </li></ul> to get
- Item 1 ...
- Item 2 ...
- Item 3 ...
|
|
Use <ol><li> ... </li></ol> to create a numbered
list. Start the list with <ol> and end the list with </ol>. Enclose
each item in the list with the <li></li> pair.
For example, type <ol><li>Item 1 ... </li><li>Item 2
...</li><li>Item 3 ... </li></ol> to get
- Item 1 ...
- Item 2 ...
