Changing font
23 Answers
How do I change the font of my questions/answers. I don't seem to be able to change font colour or type in bold or italics. I've seen other people do it (well font colour at least) is there a trick I'm missing? Thanks.

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.In their infinite wisdom, the technologically advanced team here at ab (i.e. brother blank and brother bland) decided that the options to post in italics, emboldened font, or underline, was unnecessarily power zapping, they held their bi-annual let's **** the abers off conference behind the hallowed walls of the monastery, and came up with the controversial but enforceable solution, to do away with them. There are now a set of complex, confusing and conflicting methods of producing what was hitherto the simplest of posting options. on a more personal note, i dont like it.
Now come on dot there was research done and on the 13thJune, ABE gave a breakdown of the formatting of the previous 100,000 answers and the total came to 12.18%. A week later in her �Blog� she said less than 8% contained any formatting. At that rate, there would have been no answers wi formatting by July 4th (spooky eh?)
Corby, I don't think you can overlap your nesting. Tags have to be closed in the reverse order to the way they were started. Instead of
< U >< I > message < /U >< /I >
I think you need to use
< U >< I > message < /I >< /U >
o' course wi'oot ony spaces
Incidentally, it doesn't matter if you use UPPERCASE or lowercase for the tags.
< U >< I > message < /U >< /I >

Eh ! !
I've justed tested the tag nesting in preview and both work. The order doesn't matter in answers.
It obviously IS important in questions because they didn't work for TCL in the title of his post here last week.
