Formatting Submissions

Help, please.

I need to know how to format the text in the submission box to create an indent in a poem I'm going to submit.

I know Italics are <i> </i>, underline is <u></u>, bold is <b></b>, etc., but I don't know how to do an indent. *Sigh* Can someone help me, please?

Nope, doesn't work on Lit. However, &nbsp for each space I want in the indent does. Thanks for the effort though. ​

No Problem, I am happy you have a solution.

I just realized that you were doing it for a submission not the BB, the BB codes are in side vb code [ ].

You would most likely need to use RTF or HTML for a submission.

Here is indenting for HTML and RTF but you do need to be careful between RTF and HTML if you are changing from RTF to HTML you will loose the format. (So the books say).

The poem's up.

Shattered Shells

I liked the poem, but you still need to alter the "and non-breaking space" bits to get them out.

Shattered Shells by angelicminx

Eggshells crunch
silence ensues

tiptoe​

whisper​

become invisible.

The fuse is lit
tension mounts

clock​

ticks​

watch​

wait​

trembling throughout.

Stomach churns
fists clench

tears​

fall​

like rain.

A door is slammed
footsteps pound

shots​

fired​

blood​

splatters​

tension’s released.

Handcuffs lock
murder charge

judge​

rules​

self defense

Nightmare jolts, shadows creep
scream echoes

heart​

pounds​

mind​

hears​

eggshells crunch.
