Everything 2 HTML Tags
While it is possible to node in plain text, it would be like talking in a monotone... your audience would fall asleep (and probably downvote your writeup (!)).
This guide shows how to use all the HTML tags allowed in E2.
If you already know HTML, a list of tags allowed in E2 is at E2 FAQ: HTML.
If you just want a quick reference, you might want to use the quick start instead.
Note: until recently, tags were not case sensitive.
However, the new XHTML standard states that tags are now case sensitive, and should always be in lowercase.
For this reason, I recommend not using uppercase tags any more.
(In this guide, I only have the tags in uppercase in the section titles so they are easier to see.)
