line breakMost unusual characters can be directly entered without any problems.

Character Description You Type You Get Ampersand &
& Greater than >

< Quotation mark "
" - Web page addresses and e-mail addresses turn into links automatically.
Quoted content can be placed between [quote] tags in order to be displayed as an indented quote. Every [quote] tag must have a corresponding [/quote] tag. For example:
[quote]This is a simple quote.[/quote]
is displayed as:This is a simple quote.
Additionally, there is an optional attribute which allows quotes to specify the original author.
[quote=Mr. Drupal]This is a quote with an attribution line.[/quote]
is displayed as:This is a quote with an attribution line.
Finally, multiple [quote] tags can be nested within one another. Just remember that every [quote] tag must have a corresponding [/quote] tag.
[quote]I think she says it best... [quote=Ms. Quotation]This is a quote nested within another quote.[/quote] but you can't argue with [quote=Ms. Reply]The more quotes, the merrier. Just don't get too carried away.[/quote] And I have nothing more to say.[/quote]
is displayed as:
I think she says it best...but you can't argue with This is a quote nested within another quote.
And I have nothing more to say. The more quotes, the merrier. Just don't get too carried away.
