| The
Text Editor is used in many of the modules to help format
text the same way you would format text in a word processing
system. The text editor is a field in a module that has
two rows of toolbar buttons that you can click on to format
the text. The text editor is also called the WYSIWYG editor
because it uses the "What You See Is What You Get"
format to help you format text on the web site.
This feature
makes it easy to apply formatting to text without having to
manually apply HTML tags. When you use the text editor, the HTML
formatting is automatically generated by the text editor and you
can view the formatting by clicking the HTML button.
You can even use the editor you
to insert links and pictures easily in the middle of text without
having to enter any special coding. You can also use the editor to
resize and position pictures within the text.
You can either type information
directly in the text editor, or you can copy the information from
another program such as Microsoft Word or FrontPage to the Windows
clipboard, then paste the information in the text editor. This
makes it very easy to create complex formatted text and include it
in the body of a web page. |
