Product Descriptions - how to customize

In the admin section where I input the text for the product description. Can I use code to make certain text bold or italic. Or to add a space in between paragraphs. I want to be able to format this text a little better. As it is now, everything runs together.

 

Thanks,

 

Susan

use html tage--or you can add a contribution called wysiwyg

 

standard html tags are like this:

for bold-- <b>text here</b>

for italic-- <i>text here</i>

underline- <u>text</u>

line breaks- <br>

 

to center-- <div align=center>paragraph here</div>

 

hope this helps

and you can use these together obviously like this <b><u><i>text here</b><//u></i>

"I must admit that I personally measure success in terms of the contributions an individual makes to her or his fellow human beings."

---Margaret Mead---

 

"The answer is never the answer. What's really interesting is the mystery. If you seek the mystery instead of the answer, you'll always be seeking. I've never seen anybody really find the answer -- they think they have, so they stop thinking. But the job is to seek mystery, evoke mystery, plant a garden in which strange plants grow and mysteries bloom. The need for mystery is greater than the need for an answer.

Another question to build on the first: Is it possible to change the colour and text sizes for the product descriptions? I discovered how to space and bold by trial and error, but haven't figured out how to change the text size or colour. Any suggestions?

Thank you so much! I had googled for the codes, but I guess the site I hit wasn't correct with the information it was giving, which is why I couldn't get it to work. The code listing from the site you gave me is great.
