After many queries from a variety of folks about how to imbed links, make bold and italicized text in Haloscan comment boxes, this post will hopefully serve a couple of purposes, to educate those who wish to communicate more effectively, and help those that wish to avoid "breaking" Haloscan. Lets start with italic text.
