+trickytreasure Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 Hello, I am writing a description for a geocache write now and I do not know how to use HTML code to change my text to red. I have tried things like <font=red> but I can't seem to figure it out. Please help. 1 Quote Link to comment

+barefootjeff Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 This page in the Help Centre is a good reference for the HTML codes that are allowed on cache pages. 2 Quote Link to comment
+Calypso62 Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 I use an online HTML editor (not the one on the cache edit page). I create all the text including font type, text size, text colour, highlighted text and add photos (using URLs) then copy and paste the HTML code into the description box on the geocache edit page. It all works well! Quote Link to comment

It all works well! I used IBM Top Page for a long time, til it broke in Windows 10. Top Page would not only show changes in a live preview, it would attempt to correct my many abysmally bad HTML code typos. Man, that was sweet! Edited July 7, 2019 by kunarion Quote Link to comment
+trickytreasure Posted July 10, 2019 Author Share Posted July 10, 2019 @Calypso62, what HTML editor do you use? How does it help you compared to just writing the code on a the geocaching.com description page? Quote Link to comment
+Calypso62 Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 This is the online editor I use. I usually hit the maximize but so I'm working on a full page. I started using this one quite a while back and find it works well for me....... https://www.html.am/html-editors/online-html-editor.cfm Quote Link to comment
+trickytreasure Posted August 7, 2019 Author Share Posted August 7, 2019 @Calypso62, that sounds great! I will try it for my next hide Quote Link to comment
