5 (Optional.) Click the Plus (+) button to limit the search with one of the following tag modifiers:
With Attribute Specifies an attribute that must be in the tag for it to match. You can specify a particular value for the

search for all img tags with no alt attribute.
Containing Specifies text or a tag that must be contained within the original tag for it to match. For example, in the

Define abbreviations and acronyms
HTML provides tags that let you define the abbreviations and acronyms you use in your page for search engines, spell
checkers, language translation programs, or speech synthesizers. For example, you might want to specify that the
abbreviation ME in your page stands for mechanical engineer, or the acronym WHO stands for World Health
Organization.
1 Select the abbreviation or acronym in the text of your page.
2 Select Insert > HTML > Text Objects > Abbreviation, or Insert > HTML > Text Objects > Acronym.
3 Enter the full text of the acronym or abbreviation.
4 Enter the language, such as en for English, de for German, or it for Italian.
Set copy and paste preferences
You can set special paste preferences as default options when using Edit > Paste to paste text from other applications.
For example, if you always want to paste text as text only, or text with basic formatting, you can set the default option
in the Copy/Paste Preferences dialog box.
