A couple of tips: The program also has the ability to use RTF (rich text formatting) in which you can format the piece of writing on the screen. THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE FORMATTING (HTML) OF YOUR POST. For posting on the forum it is best to ignore that aspect altogether and ONLY work in plain text. In retrospect I should have left it out probably.

There is a button for RichText or Plain Text... always use plain text. Important: when you save you piece it asks you "rich text or plain text" - always choose plain text to save your file.
