Supported HTML

 Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

Website-Manager uses a subset of HTML codes when generating the reports for display and printing. The behaviour of these codes may not reflect perfectly how they are displayed in a normal Web browser. In fact, some codes may not display correctly in a Web browser at all. This is by design and not necessarily a bug in the software. If something doesn't work as expected, try doing it differently until the results are close enough.

When entering your own HTML code, attribute values should be surrounded by double quote marks. Any tags listed that don't show attributes do not support any attribute tags. Even if the HTML specification indicates the tags has attributes.
