## Using HTML You can use just about any HTML tag without a problem. You can add HTML if there is no TWiki equivalent, for example, write `deleted text` to get deleted text. %X% There are a few usability and technical considerations to keep in mind: - On collaboration pages, it's better **not** to use HTML, but to use [[TWiki shorthand|Main/WebHome#TWikiShorthand]] instead - this keeps the text uncluttered and easy to edit. - If you use HTML use [XHTML 1.0 Transitional](http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/) syntax. - %X% Script tags may be filtered out, at the discretion of your TWiki administrator. Recommendations when pasting HTML from other sources: - Copy only text between `` and `` tags. - Remove all empty lines. TWiki inserts `

` paragraph tags on empty lines, which causes problems if done between HTML tags that do not allow paragraph tags, like for example between table tags. - Remove leading spaces. TWiki might interpret some text as lists. - Do not span a tag over more than one line. TWiki requires that the opening and closing angle brackets - **<...>** - of an HTML tag are on the same line, or the tag will be broken. - In your HTML editing program, save without hard line breaks on text wrap. %T% TWiki converts shorthand notation to HTML for display. To copy a fully marked-up page, simply view the source in your browser and save the contents. If you need to save HTML frequently, you may want to check out TWiki:Plugins/PublishAddOn.
