erebrandir's <lj-raw> tag is now active (see lj_dev post; see changelog post). Therefore, the following two changes should probably be made to FAQ #75: What are the LJ-specific tags?: - Replace "4" with "5" in the very first sentence.
- After the description of <lj-poll>, add the following:
5. <lj-raw> ... </lj-raw>
... which can be used in a journal entry, in a comment, or in the bio on a profile page (User Info). Nothing between an <lj-raw> tag and before an </lj-raw> tag will be auto-formatted.The <lj-raw> tag need not be closed; if it is not closed, then autoformatting will be deactivated until the end of the entry, comment, or bio.For more information on auto-formatting see:
( http://www.livejournal.com/support/faqbrowse.bml?faqid=26 ).
If anyone wants to re-word the striked-out section, feel free (I used strikeout because I thought that the explanation sounded "cleaner" without it); or if you don't think it's necessary to include, then say so. The rest of the text is pretty much just stolen from the explanations of the other four tags, reworked a bit to fit this tag.
BTW, Someone proposed a different wording a while ago, before the tag actually went active; here it is.
Something might also want to be added to FAQ #26: What does the "Don't auto-format" option do?, but I've not yet gotten around to specific wording, etc.
