    Hi

    When I try to format a part of text in a paragraph, the whole paragraph text gets formatted. When I open the text in HTML mode and put the tags (<> </>) manually, that part of text behaves like a separate line within the paragraph.
    Is there any other option to format a part of text with in a paragraph like MS Word?

    Any help ...

    Thanks

      What kind of formatting are you trying to do?

      If you are using the ’format’ dropdown menu, then all of the options given are block-level formatting options, so they can’t be used on just part of a paragraph. You should be able to use other formatting options, though.

        How can I use other formatting options ? Using HTML view source or any other method?

          What options do you mean? If you are using TinyMCE, you should be able to see various options, depending on how you have it set up. For example, bold, italics, bullet points and so on. Usually, you just select the text you want to format and then click on the appropriate button.

          What formatting do you want to do to the text?

          If it’s something non-standard, you could use a <span></span> and apply the styling through a stylesheet.

          Maybe I’m not understanding your problem properly.
