Writing in Color?
-
Brand new here, and have had sites before, but is there no color icons for writing?
I would like to highlight some of my text in color, but don’t see any buttons for it
when in the posting box? Would it work if I had to type some type of code pre/aft?On a small note, I will be entering about 6 columns of info a day (lists is close).
Any way to put 3 across uniformly, with the next 3 under it?? Otherwise it is going
to take up a lot of ‘scrolling’ space. Would be so much better to get it in one view.Thanks, Tom

Of course you can change the text color. In the “visual” post editor, you highlight the text you want to change, then click the color icon (row 2, icon 4). If you only see one row of icons, click the last one.
For displaying content in columns you need codes for tables. In its most basic form, the code for a 3-in-a-row table would be this:
<table> <tr><td>DATA1</td><td>DATA2</td><td>DATA3</td></tr> </table>(In the html post editor, of course.) If you describe more precisely what you have in mind, I can give you a more detailed code (or a link to a table tutorial, if you prefer).

Thanks pana, found the text color, and it is simple. I just couldn’t find it :)
Any ideas on getting 3 columns across?

It worked somewhat…..to close together, but you are on the right track.
I inputed my data where you have the ‘data’marked, and did get 3 columns, but, they
are right beside each other. How can I space them out away from each other?Thanks again

In the beginning, instead of
<table>
put
<table cellspacing="30">
(the number is arbitrary – you can set a higher one)For more on tables see either of these:
