If you copy and paste the source code, you will get the source code in your email, but if you copy and paste what you see in your browser, you will get a (mostly) acceptable rendition of your original HTML. You just have to make sure that you are using the "rich formatting" mode. The big downside is that you cannot ever (as far as I can see) edit the ...

Google does not support this feature: (Source) Please note that Gmail doesn't recognize HTML tags inserted in the body of a message However, it might be possible with an external 3 party application such as Outlook or ThunderBird.

According to the Gmail blog, an iFrame is used to host the code which handles gmail so that messages opened in new windows can be used without having to reload resources, and can persist even if the parent window is closed. See this blog post for some more details on how it works. For the technically curious among you, our friends on the Chrome team made ...

You shouldn't use br elements for separating paragraphs. From the HTML5 specification: br elements must be used only for line breaks that are actually part of the content, as in poems or addresses. A paragraph should be enclosed in a p element. The div element doesn't add/change any meaning. At most it changes the styling of the content (via CSS; ...

If you're looking to display it as a normal maps page, you'd want to use http://google.com/maps?q=SE1+1EB (Postcode format doesn't matter.) But if you're looking to use the data from the page, you should be using the Google Maps API. Doing it by requesting a user-end URL could potentially end up with your server getting banned from making requests.

I can confirm that Gmail does allow you to send tables, but provide very limited editing support. What I would do is to copy the whole e-mail into an online HTML editor like TinyMCE and do the editing there. You can also copy it a local tool that supports HTML editing, like Word or Dreamweaver.

Since v1.18, out-of-the-box you can do the following (as described here): <div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed"> This text is not collapsible; but the next is collapsible and hidden by default: <div class="mw-collapsible-content">{{Lorem}}</div> </div>

I can think of two reasons, one human the other computer. The human reason - it shows visitors that you care about these things and that your site is going to be well written and not try to exploit their browsers. It doesn't say anything about the content though :) The computer reason - it means that your site/application should render correctly and ...

The important thing is the domain of the link. When you hover on that link, if the URL that shows up (usually at the bottom left of the browser window) starts with http://facebook.com or https://facebook.com, then it is safe no matter what follows the site root. That being said, the link you gave opens a Facebook page to Report Mistaken Email. It says: ...

Try Amaya. It's a desktop WYSIWYG editor much like DreamWeaver but it's free and open source. If you want a web-based one, you might want to check out CKEditor. You could check its feature list here.

Body is not an acceptable tag in gmail, and most email clients disregard backgrounds unless they're in divs. There's a great resource on the subject of what email clients support and don't support called the Email Standards Project. As for entering html in gmail, you're going to have to do the copy paste thing that digitxp said, but don't include the html, ...

In Thunderbird, there is a plugin called stationery which lets you see the HTML of an email and edit it. Perhaps that's what you're looking for? https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/thunderbird/addon/4394/

If you want to send HTML emails, you need to use a tool that let you write the content of the email yourself instead of relying on WYSIWYG editors. The most part of mail clients doesn't allow this feature, mainly for security reasons. With web email clients, such as Gmail, Yahoo or Hotmail, you can try to use the WebKit Inspector (in Safari and Chrome) or ...

When you post via the API the postId will be returned. So you just append /post/{postId} to the blog's URL to get the permalink. This URL will not include the slug but the slug is just for easier reading. If you added a custom slug then just append it to to the URL. To get the blog's URL do an API call to api/authenticate and it will return the URL for all ...

Do you need it to be inline (display on in a page along with other content), or is it okay to be on a separate page? I would suggest saving your resume as a PDF (note, this is good practice in general) and ensuring that it looks good in Google's PDF previewer. You can then attach it to any page in Google sites and reference it by URL. If you need it to be ...

It doesn't add anything to your website per say, but if someone share your website (or like it now) you can decide to specify the image and description displayed. Otherwise Facebook let the user decide which image to use or decide automatically. So depending on your content, it might be better to force Facebook to use the image you want to share.

you can try JessyInk - which is now part of Inkscape (opensource). There is an comparison or Prezi vs. JessyInk. You can try their showcase presentation - I put a copy of it on my Dropbox here. In discussion they also mentioned Sozi (also opensource) but I did not try it. :-)

Each theme is different, but here's how I would of updated it on my tumblr. Knowing more about your theme's HTML would give a better answer. Go to http://www.tumblr.com/customize/<yourBlogName> and click Edit HTML. Within that page look for About within an <h4> tag. Mine looks like this before: <h4>{lang:About}</h4> <div ...

I wouldn't call Tumblr a web framework. It's a social blogging platform that allows customization through an templating engine. You can not insert any JavaScript. They allow you to call certain approved js files like Twitter’s widget.js but that's about it. Basically you have control of how your content is displayed via HTML and some custom CSS along pre ...

There are many languages that can aid in 'animation' behavior. Depending on what type/level of animation you want, will point you in the right direction. If you want just mouse-over animation, javascript and CSS are your friends. If you want something more sophisticated you'll want to look at Flash (but that's a beast of its own). For the most part, ...

In HTML, the characters < and > are special (so are quotation marks in certain places). If you want these characters to appear, you'll need to encode them (as &lt; and &gt; respectively). The ampersand is used for encoding, and it follows that the ampersand is also a special character. If you want an actual ampersand to appear, you need to ...

You can use Live Website Editor. It works on Google Chrome. It doesn't support drag & drop yet but it can save changes (whereas Page Hacker or Live Edit can't).

It is indeed possible, though not, as far as I can see, by using the Gmail signature editor directly. You can create the signature you want using a different tool (I use WiseStamp with Firefox which supports a 'better' HTML editor) then once defined, simply copy the result from the 'normal' view, not the HTML view, and paste it into the Gmail sig edit box. ...
