• Allowed HTML tags: <a> <em> <strong> <cite> <code> <ul> <ol> <li> <dl> <dt> <dd><b><span><div><h1><h2><h3>

  This site allows HTML content. While learning all of HTML may feel intimidating, learning how to use a very small number of the most basic HTML "tags" is very easy. This table provides examples for each tag that is enabled on this site.

  For more information see W3C's HTML Specifications or use your favorite search engine to find other sites that explain HTML.

  Most unusual characters can be directly entered without any problems.

  If you do encounter problems, try using HTML character entities. A common example looks like &amp; for an ampersand & character. For a full list of entities see HTML's entities page. Some of the available characters include:

  Character Description	You Type	You Get
  Ampersand	&	&
  Greater than	>	>
  Less than	&lt;	<
  Quotation mark	&quot;	"

• Lines and paragraphs are automatically recognized. The <br /> line break, <p> paragraph and </p> close paragraph tags are inserted automatically. If paragraphs are not recognized simply add a couple blank lines.

• You can use the <go> tags just like the <a>. The url will be rewritten to in internal URL that will eventually redirect the user to the given url. Depending on the settings the url will contain an identifying label constructed from the provided url. Alternatively you can provide a label by means of the "title" argument.

  For example:

  <go href="http://example.org/some/page">Some page example</go>

  produces:

  <a href="go/example.com/some/page">Some page example</a>

  Or like this:

  <go href="http://example.com/some/page" title="Some page">Some page example</go>

  produces:

  <a href="go/some_page" title="Some page">Some page example</a>

• The Views module allows administrators to create dynamic lists of content for display in pages or blocks. It is possible to insert those lists into existing node bodies and blocks, but such inclusion requires that PHP filtering be turned on. The Insert View module allows any user to insert view listings using tag syntax, without the need for PHP execution permissions. The Insert View tag syntax for embedding a view is relatively simple:

  [view:my_view]

  is replaced by the content listing corresponding to the named view (in this case, my_view).

  [view:my_view=5]

  limits the listing to 5 entries.

  [view:my_view=10=1,2,3]

  limits the listing to 10 entries, and passes a comma delimited list of arguments (in this case 1, 2, and 3) to the view.

  Here's an example you could use with the default view named "tracker" which takes a user ID as an argument:

  [view:tracker=5=1]

  In short this tag says, "Insert the view named tracker, limit the number of results to 5, and supply the argument/user ID 1."

  Sometimes you want to pass an argument without placing a limit on the number of results. You can do that by leaving the limits position empty, like so:

  [view:my_view==1]

  You can use a pager with your view by using the following syntax (note: you must set a limit which will serve as the number of nodes per page):

  [view_pager:my_view=3]
