Formatting product text

[Cadogon]

Hi,

A quick question - if you follow the link: http://www.cadogon.com/acatalog/Axis...rk_Camera.html it take you to a sample product page on my website. I would like to format the product text (Full Description) by having bullet points / underlining but have no idea how to do this and Actinic Help didn't seem to be of any use.

Could anyone help?

You could do this with CSS but the whole text sits between a <span> tag so if you wanted to bullet point each paragraph that would be a struggle - you could easily create a bullet image and insert as and where you require in the product description by inserting the HTML as follows:

!!<<img src="bullet.gif" width="2" height="2">>!! The AXIS 206W Wireless Network Camera....

Similarly to underline a few key words use

The AXIS 206W !!<<u>Wireless Camera</u>>!! is perfect for.....

Jonty,

Thanks again for that. I think I will try the bullet images suggestion right now.

Or embed your product description within !!< and >!!

and then use <ul> </ul> and <li> </li> for bullets

I would advise against highlighting text with an underline as this implies a link. Use bold, italics or colour to do this.

Jo,

Very useful. However having applied the changes to the following page:

http://www.cadogon.com/Swann_T3_Outd...ur_Camera.html, the bullets are indented and there is a fair amount of spacing between the bullets. Is there any way of stopping the indenting and the reducing the spacing between the bullets?

Have you tried editing the <ul> and <il> tags in actinic.css file? You will possibly need to add in

padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;

and experiment with the padding values accordingly to get the desired effect. Best to change 1 value at a time and preview under Actinic
