with html codes you need to add the < and > tags at the beginning "<" and the very end">" of your code, eg:
code="properties"
the codes for textcolor is fontcolor="yellow" Of course you can add whatever color you will or even write an hexademical color like #FFFFFF which is white.
And dont forget to put the <> tags in your code.
So you would have to write something like this:
#font color="red"# My text here.#/font#
Repleace the # with <> and you should be set...
Not too difficult

Hmmm, I find it very confusing that this forum uses both the [] and <> tags.

As possibly the most prolific user of "colored fonts" on this forum, I can attest that you do NOT have to have the quote marks (" ") around the font color. That was how I learned to do it, but I recently discovered that it works without them as well.

Xen - Whenever you see a color or graphic in a message that you like and you wonder "How did they do that?" - just click on the QUOTE option for that message. This will reveal the text and ALL the HTML codes used in the message. I've done that to learn the code of a particular color I liked.

So, if you wanted to type something in yellow font, you would type it like this:

< font color=yellow >{insert text}< /font >

Just remove the spaces between the bracket and actual command and you will get this:

{insert text}

One word of caution....ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS make sure to "Preview" your message and verify that you have "closed" any HTML commands {i.e., you've entered the "< /{command} >"}. Otherwise, this command will remain "open" and will carry over into the next message typed in...regardless of who is typing it.

Thats right they work as well without them, but they are there for a purpose and in huge html documents it can mess up the whole thing if you dont use them.
