By using these text formatting options, you can add emphasis or de-emphasize text in your note.
And replace the word URL with the URL where you want the link to go when clicked. For special characters, simply type in the numeric or friendly code into the notes box. For example: To get type á To get type ñ Some useful codes include: – and — to write en- and em-dashes ( and ), ™, ©, and ® to write trademark, copyright mark, and registered symbols (, , and ). The entire list of codes is found here: HTML Codes Special Characters
<h3> </h3>
Enclose the text you want to be your heading inside one of those tags:
<h1>This is a Level 1 Headline</h1>
You should use the headlines in order, by number. So an H1 headline comes first. H2 headlines are used just below H1. And H3 headlines are used below the H2s. Don't use them to make your text bold or larger. Instead use the tags listed above to make them bold and big.
Lists on Facebook
Lists are very popular on Facebook, but many people just write the numbers or bullets manually rather than letting the HTML do the job for you. You can use both bulleted and numbered lists in Facebook notes. For a numbered (ordered) list, write:
<ol> <li>list <li>list <li>list <li>list </ol> item item item item 1</li> 2</li> 3</li> 4</li>
If you don't want to worry about the HTML and have Facebook automatically create a link to your album with that photo in it, then this is a great way to go. But I don't like adding images to the Facebook notes this way because you can't move the image around easily in the document. Instead, I use HTML to add images to notes:
1. In another window, I open my Facebook albums and surf to the image I want to use 2. I then right-click on that image and choose Copy image location 3. In the Notes editing window, I add the code for an image just like I would in a normal web page:
<img src="URL" alt="alt text">
4. I replace the URL with the image location I copied in step 2 and the alt text with the appropriate alt text 5. Then, below the image tag, I add a caption using the Facebook codes:
<div class="caption">My caption here</div>
Replacing My caption here with the caption for the photo The HTML looks like this:
<img src="http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-aksnc3/hs402.snc3/24399_382491027993_551662993_4894434_7302405_n.jpg" alt="suni"> <div class="caption">Shasta</div>
As long as youre pointing to an image already on Facebook, your image will show up without a problem. And then if you want to move it to other places in your note, you just highlight the image and caption tag and move it to a different place.
