Here . . . you can see the HTML tags with them ACTING like HTML tags because I've added underscores
<_s_>This will be a strikeout<_/s_> <_small_>This will small<_/small_> <_b_>This will be bold<_/b_> <_em_>This will be italics/emphasis<_/em_> (HTML5 shifted to "em" over "i") And to insert a hyperlink is <_a href="Link goes here"_>Text goes here<_/a_>
And remember, with VERY few exceptions (probably none you'll ever use/need), all tags need the opening and closing tag (the closing tag is the one with the slash). If you forget to close a tag, EVERYTHING after your opening tag will have the format you forgot to cut off. XD;;;
Also, this isn't just Dreamwidth. This is basic web coding, called HTML. ^,^ (I really should back on the ball with my own web dev stuff. 9,9)
It'll work, I'll get it to work. Basic coding might not have been my friend in the past but it's basically just no slash thing and then slash thing to make it work, so I think even I can't mess that up!
Also, the error message in my comment above is because the browser (at least mine, and probably ANY) recognized that I was "trying" to write HTML but also knew it was "bad" code (deliberately bad in this case so you could see it). Use those tags without the underscores and you'll be fine. =3
Also you can combine tags. Like for instance, sometimes you may have seen me add OOC-ish comments in narrative for Darnell that I wanna throw in for the other player to read but isn't actually part of the narrative proper, I'll use both the "s" and "small" tags. XD
That's not necessarily a DWRP convention, btw, just something I do. XD;;; But it's an example of combining tags.
I'm just sorry it's going to be a few days before I'm on top of things enough for a thread, but that gives us a little more time to figure out what scenario we want, at least?

But yeah, it's just basic coding.
