italics and bold

Okay, so Memory and Emma Margaret  asked me how to do italics and bold in comments on Blogger!
It's actually a lot more simple than I thought it would be!
So, here's an example:
Amelia Earhart used to eat purple, chocolate covered clowns.
And now you want to emphasize some of those words!
So, for the italics, you do this:
<i>chocolate covered</i>


And for the bold you do this:
<b>used</b>


If you want to do both italics and bold, you do this
<i><b>clowns</b></i>


All together, your comment {before you submit it} will look like this:
Amelia Earhart <b>used</b> to eat purple, <i>chocolate covered</i> <i><b>clowns</b></i>.


So, did that make sense? I hope it helped! :)

    Is this it? I think I got it. If it works, I'll start doing it on other blogs!

      That's it! :) Though I'm not sure it'll work on Wordpress blogs... might as well give it a try, though!

      Well that's because most history books and biographies leave out that one small fact... Which is really quite a shame since it was her favorite snack! ;)
      I'm glad I could help!

    Ooooh! That was cool of you to do that, Trinka. I had to ask one of the bloggers that I follow back when I first started because I knew there was a way to make it work. =) It can be a tad bit irritating to bracket the italics and bolds, or whatever it is you are doing, but it is still great.

    BTW: your new header font and iPod "thingy" are really cute. =)

      Yeah, the only reason I taught myself how to do it is because I saw you using it! :)
      And thank you!
