HTML in DNN Module Titles

I’m still knee-deep into multiple projects, so this quick tip has to do for today.

Did you know that you can use HTML in the DNN module title field?

How’s that useful? Well, you could forgo text altogether and use an image as a module title to get a fancy font across for instance. Or you could use two different font sizes in your module title as I have done here. Another useful application is to place a named anchor into the title to “jump” from module to module within your page.

Have you used HTML in your module titles before? If so, how?

It took me three takes to appreciate the module title with different font sizes... Nice!

How about an < h1 > tag?

What about the

tag?

Everytime I try to use a

text

tag in the module title, I have problems with IE displaying it correctly (Vertical alignment is off). Firefox has no problem though. Any tips?
Thanks

Rob - what skin are you having this issue with?

Hi Tom, thanks for responding. I was having trouble with a skin that I purchased from snowcovered called
minimalist. Great skin, but I can't use any h1 tags on the containers title's.

Thanks again.

What does the code of your container(s) look like?
