Alternatives

You can use wiki syntax to achieve most, if not everything, you want to achieve with HTML.

Tag Name HTML Wiki Syntax Example Notes
<b> <b>bold</b> **bold** bold This actually outputs the <strong> tag in HTML source.
<div> <div>div</div> [[div]] [[/div]] none Wikidot inserts a <p> automatically in divs.
<h1> <h1>heading 1</h1> + heading 1 none
<h2> <h2>heading 2</h2> ++ heading 2 none
<h3> <h3>heading 3</h3> +++ heading 3 none
<h4> <h4>heading 4</h4> ++++ heading 4 none
<h5> <h5>heading 5</h5> +++++ heading 5 none
<h6> <h6>heading 6</h6> ++++++ heading 6 none
<span> <span>span</span> [[span]]span[[/span]] span
<li>
<ol> See <li>
<strong> <strong>strong</strong> **strong** strong This actually outputs the <strong> tag in HTML source.
<tt> <tt>typewriter text</tt> {{typewriter text}} typewriter text

Displaying HTML Source

HTML Source can be displayed in a wiki page using a code box.

[[code type="html"]]
<html>
    <head>
        <title> My HTML Source </title>
    </head>
    <body>
        <p>A paragraph!</p>
    </body>
</html>
[[/code]]

The above will look like this :

<html>
    <head>
        <title> My HTML Source </title>
    </head>
    <body>
        <p>A paragraph!</p>
    </body>
</html>
