Does anyone know how to just indent the first line of a paragraph on this new board system?

Looks sorta like this.

The indent button.





That works for only one line, but if you use that to indent anything longer than one line it indents the entire paragraph.

Insert a blank text.

The key is Alt and sequence 0160 on the right number pad on the keyboard for this current font.

Example:

     Next to the word Next at the beginning of this sentence is about five blank text which was keyed in with Alt 0160. An now for some random text to force an break line within the browser window. Maybe I'll have to add more text for those running under higher resolutions though most under lower resolutions should have had an few page breaks by now as this is one really huge run-on sentence.

Example 2:

                Next to the word Next at the beginning of this sentence is about sixteen blank text which was keyed in with Alt 0160. An now for some random text to force an break line within the browser window. Maybe I'll have to add more text for those running under higher resolutions though most under lower resolutions should have had an few page breaks by now as this is one really huge run-on sentence.

"Alt 0160"? You're talking 'computer talk' aren't you? :confused:

That is if you're using a standard 101/102 keyboard.

    Hold down the Alt key located next to the spacebar and then press numbers 0 1 6 0 (zero one six zero) on the far right numeric keypad, then release the Alt key. Make certain not to use the number keys located above the letter keys for this process.

Is there away to make this work without a numeric keypad? I have a laptop that doesn't include one. Thanks!

If you're running Windows, the character map program will allow you to select and copy the command. More info. (http://www.techtv.com/callforhelp/answerstips/windowstips/story/0,24330,3003332,00.html)

Thanks for the tip, unfortunately not only do I not have a number pad, but I also have a Macintosh. Still, the help is much appreciated!

Yet another argument for PCs. :p

Just kidding!

Then if running Mac OS X v10.2, this site talks about (http://www.aacug.org/MUG/apple/tips4ten.html#Ten3) an Character Palette program which sounds similar to the Windows character map program. This site (http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/font.html) has an brief cap of what the program looks like. If the program follows standard font coding, then it should be able to allow you to insert an blank text. Just make certain not to use the spacebar font instead of the blank text font.
