Hello friends, Most of us see many users performing actions like quoting a sentence, using special formatting or posting an image in their posts etc. quite often but are unaware how to do so. Thus, I thought of sharing some of these basic actions with everyone so that even others can make use of it and enjoy. Actually it is called HTML (HyperText Mark-up Language). Learn more about HTML Without going into any technical details, I would just say that HTML are some useful 'word codes/commands' that makes our text/post appear the way we want it. I am posting here only few common HTML codes. To use a code, just copy-paste it.
