Everything 2 HTML Tags

(A Guide to using HTML in E2.)

While it is possible to node in plain text, it would be like talking in a monotone... your audience would fall asleep (and probably downvote your writeup (!)). This guide shows how to use all the HTML tags allowed in E2.

If you already know HTML, a list of tags allowed in E2 is at E2 FAQ: HTML.
If you just want a quick reference, you might want to use the quick start instead.

Note: until recently, tags were not case sensitive. However, the new XHTML standard states that tags are now case sensitive, and should always be in lowercase. For this reason, I recommend not using uppercase tags any more. (In this guide, I only have the tags in uppercase in the section titles so they are easier to see.)
