Basic HTML For Your Myspace

I didnt realize how simple HTML was, but yet so difficult for others. I mean you've got to figure most people on MySpace have only heard the term HTML, but really have no idea what it is. So, I've put together a little HTML for dummies, the basics. Enjoy.

HTML Basics

The following code below will give you some basic knowledge of HTML and a better understanding of how to edit some of the items in your profile.

HTML Tag Description
<b>Bold Text</b> This makes your text bold
<i>Italic Text</i> This makes your text italic
<u>Underlined Text</u> This makes your text underlined
<s>Strike-Through Text</s> This makes your text strike-through
<b><i><u>Combined Tags</u></i></b> Combine these tags to get text like this
<font face="verdana" size="8" color="#000000">Modified Font Text</font> Using the <font> tag you can customize your font face, size and color of any text.
<br /> Create a line-break (like hitting your 'Enter' button in a word processing document).
Put <br /> at the end of each line, and your text
will
be
on
separate
lines.
<a href="http://www.somewebsite.com/">Text Title of Link</a> This will create a link to 'http://www.somewebsite.com/'. You can change the address of the href property to any website you want to link from your page.
Example: Friends On Myspace
<img src="http://www.friendsonmyspace.com/to/myimage.gif" width="100" height="100" /> This code is used to display an image on your page. The width and height properties can be specified, and should match the actual width and height of the image you're displaying.
<center>Centered Text</center> This will center your text, images, or almost anything you put between these tags.
Example:
This text is centered!
&nbsp; Non-breaking spaces are used to display pictures next to one another, without the picture wrapping around to the next line.

    i was wondering how do you see who the people are that have been viewing your myspace.

    Good question there kelly, but myspace doesnt show you that information.

    Ive actually sent them some requests regarding that feature, as well as some others.

    This give me an idea... Ive started a THREAD of MySpace Feature Requests.....

    how do you get the tags for pictures that dont have one?

    how do you put a picture and multiple lines of text on the same line?

    Hi. I was wondering how you change the color of the comments that people send you. Thanks

    I have only one column on my myspace page, and I can't figure out how to get two? Is this a HTML problem? Do you know how I can fix it? Thanks for your help :)

    HOW do I display a box on myspace where people can copy the code for a banner that I make?

    I was wondering how do you change on myspace where is says "Jessica has blank amount of friends' I was wondering how do I change what that says??

    How do i get the white background directly behind the text on my profile page to be transparent so I can see the real background i have added?

    I was wondering how I get rid of the blog, extended network and bottom links, but remove the space they are in too, and not just leave blank boxes?

    Ok so i need some help!
    can any one send me in the right direction for the html code for adding additional text boxes, so i can add additional information in seperate boxes, contact me via email or add me as a friend on myspace would be easyier for me coz ill doubt ill stumble across this page agen lol.
