How To Use HTML Tags And Spans In Text Strings and Prompts

You can use HTML tags in a step's text string. For example, the word "Continue" will be italicized in the following text string "Press<i>Continue</i> after you've selected the customer" (the <i> and </i> are the HTML tags used to indicate that the surrounded text should be italicized).

The following are other useful HTML tags:

• <br> causes a line break in a text string. If you use <br><br> a blank line will appear.
• <font color=red> text </font> causes the surrounded text to be colored as specified (in this case, red). You can also use hex codes rather than the color name.

Please refer to an HTML reference manual or website for more examples.

You can also use "spans" to customize the look of the contents of a text string. For example, your text string could be "Press <span style="font-family:Courier; font-size:large; font-weight:bold;">Continue</span> after you've selected the customer". This would make the word "Continue" appear as large, bold, Courier text. Please refer to a Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) reference manual or website for more examples.
