TimeLine - How to Format using HTML
NOTE:
With Timeline, users can build visually rich, interactive timelines from a spreadsheet, creating a detailed timeline of events or highlighting someone's life experiences. For more information on TimeLine, part of the night Lab Storytelling Suite, please click here.
iFrame
The iFrame option can be used to embed other media types that TimeLineJS may not typically handle. Instead of a URL, users can simply use the <iframe> markup. For more information, reference https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/iframe.
TimeLineJS’s text fields all accept HTML markup. For the following cases (making a block quote, line breaks, boldening text, and italicizing text), HTML markup is needed. The markup would occur on the Google spreadsheet used to make your Timeline.
Blockquote
Users can use <blockquote> tags around whatever text they want to quote. It is important to make sure the tag at the beginning of the text is <blockquote>and the tag at the end of the text is </blockquote>.
Paragraph
To create line breaks wrap paragraphs using <p> at the beginning and </p> at the end of a paragraph.
Bold
To make text bold, wrap text using <b> at the beginning of it and </b> at the end of it.
Italics
To make text italicized, wrap text using <i> at the beginning of it and </i> at the end of it.
