HTML is not allowed in posts for security reasons, such as XSS hacking etc. that could mean a hacker getting hold of admin account details.

However, there are http://forums.webwiz.net/forum_codes.asp - forum codes to create most formatting that is required of posts

You can also paste HTML into the WYSIWYG Editor, but for security reasons any HTML, Javascript, etc. that could be used for malicious code input is stripped, so it's always good to use the preview post tool first to see if the post comes out the way you intend.
