What are DX Tags?
DX Tags are 'markers' within your HTML code
so that the 'DX blog engine' can position the
blog information where you specify - but without
having to go into the database design.
This obviously opens up the ability for non-developers
to create there own blog, but also gives you
the opportunity to design your blog 'online'
using a browser by uploading and downloading
'template files' that you have edited using
your HTML or CSS editor of your choice.
The following is an example of what these
tags look like in your HTML code:
DX Tags Reference
I shall explain in more detail how to use
the DX Tags when I document the Templates.
However you should note that once there is
a fair selection
of Templates on the site - the knowledge of
HTML and the tags is not important unless you
want to create your own templates. In the meantime
here is a reference of the DX
