For the Purists,

The code for a "hollow" star is the same except the numbers are 9734.

How does one post HTML code here now?
Used to be a button to click called "Go Advanced."

You can safely try to use notes in tags, the image will be displayed! I also had a problem with the convert png to html. When I did the image, the tags for some reason all stopped working and so that I do not change, nothing will worship! Who had this problem, I am also waiting for your answer!

Thanks for your reply!

Exactly how does one use the html code?

HTML Code is a system of writing computer language.
HTML= Hyper Text Markup Language.
It follows very STRICT rules in the use of letters, numbers and symbols to produce even what you are now reading.
Example:

I had a Computer class in College and we had to use HTML to create a Page on the internet.
This was when I was in my 50's......

I earned an "A."

I think what @CRHer700 meant was how do you directly enter HTML in a post on these forums. I don't see a way to do that either.

You are probably correct.
I used to be able to enter HTML Code, but this site has possibly changed servers since then and the new server doesn't seem to offer HTML additions to users.
I miss that opportunity.....

I do wonder why the OP still shows a star.

Yes, that was what I meant.

The OP was made 7 years ago. The option must have still been available then.

 

[CRHer700]

I was thinking that since the modern software supports the OP, with it’s star, then it might support a new star. Not trying to be rude.

 

[robertk]

Not trying to be rude.

Neither was I - apologies if it seemed that way, I didn't mean it to. I don't know what revisions the board software has been through, so I don't know how capabilities have changed over time. I do know that being able to embed HTML directly can be nice, but it can also be a pretty big nightmare and security risk, so that's probably why the option isn't available anymore. But that's just a guess.
