Objective: This Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) provides instructions on how to create HTML tags using an HTML converter tool and provides a list of common HTML tags that can be used to format HTML content.
Use an HTML converter to help you create the tags. I prefer to use codebeautify.org/htmlviewer. This tool has features that streamline the process. For example, it automatically creates the closing tags once you have opened them.
Below is a list of HTML tags to use to create an HTML Format:
<h1></h1> - Headline of the article
<h2></h2> - Secondary headline
<h3></h3> - Generic headline to use inside of a secondary headline
<p></p> - New paragraph
<ol></ol> - Numbered list - each value in the list must start with <li> and end with </li>
<ul></ul> - Generic bullet points - each bullet point must start with <li> and end with </li>
<strong></strong> - use to bold a section of text
<a href="example link"> link text</a> - How to create a hotlink
There should be no spaces or indentations between tags.
Example:
Headline 1
Body Paragraph
Headline 2
Body Paragraph
Headline 2
Body Paragraph
1. Item1
2. Item2
3. Item3
Headline 2
Body Paragraph
Headline 3
