Most unusual characters can be directly entered without any problems.
If you do encounter problems, try using HTML character entities. A common example looks like & for an ampersand & character. For a full list of entities see HTML's entities page. Some of the available characters include:
| Character Description | You Type | You Get |
|---|---|---|
| Ampersand | & | & |
| Greater than | > | > |
| Less than | < | < |
| Quotation mark | " | " |
Break long pages into smaller ones by means of a page break tag (e.g. <!--pagebreak-->):
First page here. <!--pagebreak--> Second page here. <!--pagebreak--> More pages here.
Automatic page breaking based on character or word count is also supported.
The basic syntax for embedding a flash file (.swf), flash movie (.flv) or audio file (.mp3) is:
[swf file="filename.swf"]
If you would like to override SWF Tools and flash player default settings, you can specify additional parameters. For example:
[swf file="song.mp3" flashvars="backcolor=#AABBCC&&forecolor=#11AA11"]
If you would like to output a list of files then the format is:
[swf files="image1.jpg&&image2.jpg&&..."]
SWF Tools Filter will accept following:
params="wmode=true&&bgcolor="#00FF00"
Alternatively you can supply each parameter individually without using
params. Example wmode="true" bgcolor="#00FF00"flashvars="autostart=true&&volume=80"methods="player=onepixelout_mp3"WARNING: with params, flashvars and othervars, pass multiple values separated by &&.
