MrPhil Posted July 6, 2013 Posted July 6, 2013 A couple of things to keep in mind: 1. If you have an apostrophe (single quote) in the middle of your text (e.g., "Please don't feed the sharks"), you need to escape it: "Please don\'t feed the sharks". 2. The use of non-ASCII punctuation can be a problem if you don't edit the file in the same character encoding as it will be displayed in. It's usually safer to use HTML entities (e.g., § or § gives you the "section sign").
Chris H Posted July 6, 2013 Posted July 6, 2013 Html tags can be freely included, as multimixer suggests. <html> <head></head> <body> <?php define('TEXT_INFORMATION', ' <div style="width:300; text-align:justify"> <h2>§ 1 Information</h2> <p>By using this website you accept and agree to be bound by these Shopping Terms and Conditions, the Privacy Statement and such other policies as we notify you of from time to time, which together constitute the entire agreement between us.

♥14steve14 Posted July 7, 2013 Posted July 7, 2013 Hello, i need to convert word/text into php for my shops text pages (conditions, information, shipping & returns, etc.) how to do it please ? Just to make a small correction. You are converting text to html not php. If you are unsure of html code try searching online for a free html wysiwyg editor. There are quite a few available. There are also some that can be added to your store in the addons area. REMEMBER BACKUP, BACKUP AND BACKUP
MrPhil Posted July 7, 2013 Posted July 7, 2013 Well, it's a little of both... the use of HTML for anything other than plain text, and then how to put that into PHP (the only thing to worry about is escaping single quotes/apostrophes). I still strongly suggest using HTML entities rather than hard coding (binary) non-ASCII characters such as the section symbol.
