  • Lines and paragraphs are automatically recognized. The <br /> line break, <p> paragraph and </p> close paragraph tags are inserted automatically. If paragraphs are not recognized simply add a couple blank lines.
  • The Glossary module will automatically mark terms that have been defined in the glossary vocabulary with links to their descriptions. These marks depend on the settings and may be a superscript character or an icon, or the term may be turned into an acronym, cite, or abbreviation. If there are certain phrases or sections of text that should be excluded from glossary marking and linking, use the special markup, [no-glossary] ... [/no-glossary]. Additionally, these HTML elements will not be scanned: a, abbr, acronym, code, pre.
