      Lanka Developers used markdown syntax for styling all topics and post replies on the lanakadevelopers.com.

      What is Markdown?

      Markdown is a way to style text on the web. You control the display of the document; formatting words as bold or italic, adding images, and creating lists are just a few of the things we can do with Markdown. Mostly, Markdown is just regular text with a few non-alphabetic characters thrown in, like # or *.

      Headers

      # This is an <h1> tag
      ## This is an <h2> tag
      ###### This is an <h6> tag
      

      Emphasis

      *This text will be italic*
      _This will also be italic_
      
      **This text will be bold**
      __This will also be bold__
      
      _You **can** combine them_
      

      Lists (Unordered)

      * Item 1
      * Item 2
        * Item 2a
        * Item 2b
      

      Lists (Ordered)

      1. Item 1
      1. Item 2
      1. Item 3
         1. Item 3a
         1. Item 3b
      

      Images

      ![Your Image Name](http://example.com/images/logo.png)
      Format: ![Alt Text](url)

      Blockquotes

      As Steve job said:
      
      > The only way to do great work is to love what you do.
      > If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle.
      

      Inline code

      I think you should use an
      `<addr>` element here instead.
      

      Syntax highlighting

      ```javascript
      function fancyAlert(arg) {
        if(arg) {
          $.facebox({div:'#foo'}
        }
      }
      
      function fancyAlert(arg) {
         if(arg) {
            $.facebox({div:'#foo'})
         }
      }
      

      Here’s an example of Python code without syntax highlighting:

      def foo():
          if not bar:
              return True
      

      Task Lists

      - [x] @mentions, #refs, [links](), **formatting**, and <del>tags</del> supported
      - [x] list syntax required (any unordered or ordered list supported)
      - [x] this is a complete item
      - [ ] this is an incomplete item
      

      Horizontal Rules

      You can produce a horizontal rule tag (<hr />) by placing three or more hyphens, asterisks, or underscores on a line by themselves. If you wish, you may use spaces between the hyphens or asterisks. Each of the following lines will produce a horizontal rule:

      * * *
      
      ***
      
      *****
      
      - - -
      
      ---------------------------------------
      

      Tables

      Markdown table syntax is quite simple. It does not allow row or cell spanning as well as putting multi-line text in a cell. The first row is always the header followed by an extra line with dashes "-" and optional colons ":" for forcing column alignment.

      | Tables   |      Are      |  Cool |
      |----------|:-------------:|------:|
      | col 1 is |  left-aligned | $1600 |
      | col 2 is |    centered   |   $12 |
      | col 3 is | right-aligned |    $1 |
      
      Tables Are Cool
      col 1 is left-aligned $1600
      col 2 is centered $12
      col 3 is right-aligned $1

      YouTube Videos

      You cannot add directly but you can add an image with a link to the video like this:

      [![IMAGE ALT TEXT HERE](http://img.youtube.com/vi/YOUTUBE_VIDEO_ID_HERE/0.jpg)](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOUTUBE_VIDEO_ID_HERE)
