[RESOLVED] Article preview doesn't show HTML markup
I'm trying to submit an article. The submission page where you enter your text instructs you to use basic HTML.
I'm using <p> and <b> and </b> in the text, but the preview shows it all the same font in one huge paragraph.
What's the deal with that?

Strange. Never had that problem. Are you sure your tags are all matched.
Does the formatting show fine if you save whole body into a sample HTML file and launch it in a browser ?

Re: Article preview doesn't show HTML markup
I didn't try launching it in a browser, as it wasn't that complicated. For instance, if you type a bunch of text and put a <p> for paragraph breaks, and <b> and </b> around what you want to be bold, that ought to be pretty straight forward.
Do you have to encapsulate the whole thing in <html> and </html> with <body> and </body> ?

True.

Not necessarily. Doens't harm having them or not. I just tried it with and without those and I don't see any difference. The formatting appears fine for a sample that I have..

When you look at the URL for your article, you will see an ID number. Send me that ID and I'll take a look at the article to see if I can figure out the issue.

Okay...
I closed down IE and started it again, then automagically the text was formatted with my HTML tags.
Weird... but apparently fixed now.
