+fallyn Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Hi I was going to edit one of my caches to congratulate the ftf. I tried the html editing, but did not fully understand it. Can someone explain it to me? Thanks! Quote Link to comment

Can someone explain it to me? Thanks! Your new cache doesn't appear to be in HTML (not that I know anything), so have you tried just editing the cache (link at the top right corner of the cache page)? This is how I edit cache listings that DO and DO NOT use HTML. So sorry to be of no help understanding HTML. Edited May 6, 2012 by Max and 99 Quote Link to comment

+fallyn Posted May 7, 2012 Author Share Posted May 7, 2012 I do know a little html coding, but what I was wondering is that I see some people edit their caches with a "bold" congratulations to ftf. I tried it several ways and it didn't work for me so I was wondering if they use the symbols [] or <>. When I go to edit it, I see this Details You can use HTML in any of the description fields below with the exception of JavaScript and other embedded code. If you do supply HTML you will need to check the box below for the text to render correctly. The descriptions below are in HTML Valid HTML Tags: Click the tag name to view allowed attributes. <!-- //--> I have tried it, but not having success. Quote Link to comment

+BCandMsKitty Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 (edited) When editing the cache page, make sure the "The descriptions below are in html" box is checked. Then, to bold a section, put"<b>" before the text, and "</b>" after (without the quote marks, of course.) Edited May 7, 2012 by BC & MsKitty Quote Link to comment
AZcachemeister Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 For Buddha's sake...whatever you do...DON'T use a scrolling marquee. I find FTF 'congratulation' messages added to the body text of the cache page to be a bit pointless. The person who was FTF already knows they got it, and (beyond a week later) nobody cares who got it. Quote Link to comment
