Need to add text to X-Cart Pages?
Each store runs off a style sheet which is formatted to reflect the style of your site. If you add a text page and paste directly from Word, you may notice that the page does not look as it should.
To prevent this from happening, try these easy tips – to ensure the page reflects the site design:
1. To create bold words within text
Put this tag in front of the word / phrase you wish to be displayed in bold – <strong>
Make sure you then put a closing tag where you want the bold to stop – </strong>
2. To create italic words within text
Put this tag in front of the word / phrase you wish to be displayed in italic – <em>
Make sure you then put a closing tag where you want the italic to stop – </em>
3. To create a single line break
Add the tag – BR inside brackets < and >
4. To create a new paragraph
Add the tag P inside brackets < and > and then close the P tag at end of para – </p>
Note: the end tag always has a /
5. To add a headline within the page
Main heading:
Add the tag H1 inside brackets < and > and then close the H1 tag at end of para – </H1>
Subhead:
Add the tag H2 inside brackets < and > and then close the H2 tag at end of para – </H2>
6. To create a bullet list
Start the list with <ul>
Then each bullet point starts with <li> and ends with </li>
Just add more li tags to continue your lists
To end the list, you must add </ul>
7. To create a numbered list
Start the list with <ol>
Then each bullet point starts with <li> and ends with </li>
Just add more li tags to continue your lists
To end the list, you must add </ol>
I hope this assists you with your site updates but should you need any assistance, please contact us directly.
Be careful when inserting special symbols reserved for use in HTML. They need to be encoded first. For example never use the “&” sign, use this entity instead: “&”. The same is for less and greater signs.
