I thought this might be a good place to start, as I'm sure some editors have worked with formatted text. Perhaps someone here knows whether these tags end up coming through the processor.
We know that <b> and <i> come through fine for bold and italics, as do <a href=> anchors ( for Lit links only ) but what about other tags? I haven't been able to locate anything discussing other tags anywhere.
Are there certain allowed tags, or perhaps certain formatting tags that aren't allowed? ( not talking about things like scripts/etc. just formatting )
If it comes through in the preview, is it likely to come through with the tags intact once it posts? ( barring manual moderation )
Maybe it's time to write a how-to FAQ for less common tags, provided I can find out which ones work/are allowed *laugh*
<blockquote> for example. Useful for setting off something like a letter being read within the story where you're already making use of italics for thought. I know this one works during submission preview anyway, because I tested it yesterday.
What about table tags? <table><tr><td> ( doubtful, because they're so easy to mess up if you aren't careful and don't know what you're doing ) Could be useful for poetry that needs that special touch of formatting, though.
<font color> Flashbacks?
<pre> Another way to distinguish something from the rest of the text?
Anyone who knows, post up! I've grown used to utilizing some of these on my website and elsewhere to help set off things from the rest of the text, and being limited to just bold and italic is... well, limiting
