Chapter 6: Working With Text; About Html And Css Styles In The Contribute Style Menu - MACROMEDIA CONTRIBUTE 3 - USING AND ADMINISTERING CONTRIBUTE Use Manual

You can use Macromedia Contribute to add and format text, much as you do with a basic word
processor. You'll find a few differences in working with text in Contribute and a word-processing
program, such as Microsoft Word, because Contribute formats your text using HTML behind
the scenes.

About HTML and CSS styles in the Contribute Style menu

The Style pop-up menu in Contribute lists HTML heading and paragraph styles, plus user-
defined Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) styles that you can apply to format your content. All styles in
the list appear as they will appear when you apply them to text.
Note: If the Style menu is not enabled, your Contribute administrator has restricted the website so
you cannot apply styles.
You might also be able to create new CSS styles as you format text; Contribute automatically adds
these styles to your style list. This makes applying the same formatting to a block of text much
simpler as well as letting you create a more consistent look for your pages.
Note: You will not see HTML heading or CSS styles if your Contribute administrator has disabled one
or both of them. To enable or disable CSS styles in Contribute, talk to your Contribute administrator
or see "Setting style and font settings" on page
