Edit Text |
Button. When clicked, opens the HTML Editor Dialog window. This allows you to edit any previously created descriptions. You can enter the brief description using a Design Window or a Code Window.
The Design Window displays the HTML text editor tools, which are used to format the text similar to Microsoft Word. Some benefits of HTML includes the ability to emphasize text, use block quotations, and use diagrams or mathematical formulas. The problems with using HTML include compatibility issues, privacy attacks, increased spam, and large message sizes.
The Code Window is used to enter the brief description in unformatted plain text. Even though this method is unformatted, it can be used without very much processing readable by simple computer tools, such as line printing text commands in Windows DOS window type. |
You can only create one brief
description record per language for each product.
