HTML in "Pages" and some SEO queries...

Firstly let me say I'm new to this software so please be patient.

To get better formatting control of the likes of my T+C page I would like to use the option to paste in HTML. It seems easy enough hit the insert html button paste in the code, I'm generating it with Komposer, insert appropriate bit of code and save.
An example from the About Us Page:-

<strong>Active-Camo</strong> is trading name of Duart Ltd. a family firm based in the historic town of <a href="http://newton-le-willows.com/">Newton-Le-Willows Merseyside</a>. We are committed to providing the highest standard of service and highly competitive prices to our customers.</p>

<p>
<strong>We Aim To:-</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>
Supply a quality product.</li>
<li>
To provide &quot;best value&quot; to our customers.</li>

<li>
Provide exemplary service.</li>
<li>
To go the extra mile for our customers.</li>
</ul>


When I preview the document I see no formatting at all, what am I doing wrong?

SEO queries.

Related to the above, since the big G is still keen on the likes on the H1 tag how do I get it to work?
How do I control individual page titles?
Can I set up meta tags + descriptions for each individual category?


Any help much appreciated. Regards Alan

You have to place html in braces or else it's just plain text.

[[[ html code ]]]

On the inserted page it is between [[[ and ]]] sorry I didn't show that.

I've also tried doing a html insert with all the code including and between the <html> </html> tags

and it sill isn't right.

Do I have a conflict with the theme Classical Jazz - left nav?

Hi
Try replace "<strong></strong>" by "<b></b>" and the format will show.

Replace your code with this code

[[[
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Active-Camo</span> is trading name of Duart Ltd. a family firm based in the historic town of <a href="http://newton-le-willows.com/">Newton-Le-Willows Merseyside</a>. We are committed to providing the highest standard of service and highly competitive prices to our customers.</p>
<br />
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">We Aim To:-</span></p>
<ul style="list-style: disc;">
<li>Supply a quality product.</li>
<li>To provide &quot;best value&quot; to our customers.</li>
<li>Provide exemplary service.</li>
<li>To go the extra mile for our customers.</li>
</ul>
]]]

Thanks that worked :) so the cart creator needs the most basic tags?

I confess that I have been lazy and always used the likes of Komposer or Frontpage and never really learned to write my own html. I've found it easer to edit the output of the WYSIWYG editors.

Is there any visual software that will produce HTML code compatible with shopping cart creator?

Use inline styles and not depreciated html tags. All the chicks will dig you. :)
