How you do quote in italics?

A reader had a question about my comments section: "How you do quote in italics?". And as I've seen several people try tags like [i][/i] or [url=http://www.com], it seems that I need to give more instructions. Square brackets don't work in the comments section, this is not a forum.

The comments section accepts only HTML code. So you need to use < > brackets. For italics you'd use <i> and </i> to bracket the text you want in italics. For URLs you need to use the horribly complicated <a href="http://www.com"> and </a>
