Add text as an image

The vw-img tag is the first of a series of special Yahoo! tags.

Yahoo! tags look just like regular HTML tags, and you can use them anywhere in your site that you can use HTML (in Caption fields, for example). But Yahoo! tags are processed by our software at the time your pages are generated, yielding ordinary HTML that can be displayed by any browser.

The vw-img tag replaces itself with a reference to the image it describes. It is mostly used for generating display text.

It takes the following arguments:

text A quoted string.
Example: text="Like this"
   
font Any supported typeface.
Defaults to current display-font.
Example: font=Boton-medium-italic.
(Don't forget the period in the name.)
   
font-size A number.
Defaults to current display-font-size.
Example: font-size=25
   
text-color A color in html format.
Defaults to current display-text-color.
Example: text-color="#66AACC"
   
align The align argument of the html img tag.
Example: align=right

Sample text as image:


So for example, the gif above was generated by the following tag:

<vw-img text="Like This" font= Boton-medium-italic. font-size=25 text-color="#66AACC">
