General html commands in styled text?

OK... my last question for today. Thanks for your attention to these.

Can most any html command be used in a styled text message? <blockquote></blockquote>, for example, would be handy.

How about a standard href? Can that be inserted instead of using the Insert Hyperlink command?

Again, how will that sort of thing be rendered if the message can't be read in html?

Actually lines containing HTML code will be passed to the final code as is. Such lined has to contain '<' or '>'. Only limitation, those lines can't contain styles else it will be broken. MaxBulk example folder contains a document that show how to send styled text enclosed by a frame in HTML.

Not sure I fully understand that last response... sorry.

I tried using the blockquote command to enclose a section of text, and it seems to be functioning properly when previewed in a web browwser.

Were you simply saying that html code must be enclosed within carets (<>)?

An href like this would be OK <a href="http://www.whatever.com">text for the link</a>?

If plain text had to be rendered (instead of html) it would display the code?

Sorry to be a bit dense with these questions...

All that works with styled text only. The HTML rendering engine will process all your text but the lines containing '<' or '>'. When it finds such characters, the line is passed as is as it is considered as HTML or a conditional statement.

Sorry (again) for not fully understanding...

To restate for clarity:

I am using styled text for this message. Are you saying that I can or can not include html code within the message and have it properly rendered upon delivery?

The message where I have tried this appears to pass along the code properly when previewed in a browser, though the text preview does simply display the code as written.

I am using '<' and '>' characters to set the code off from the text.

Thanks again for your patience in answering these questions.

What I mean it that you can freely add HTML, it will passed to final message as is.

Thanks!

Great program - great support.

Add nested conditional statements and an html preview and it will be perfect! =)
