[ARCHIVED] Hanging indent for APA format in DB post

[rheistand001]

When I post a discussion board reply or post, how can I format my references in APA format with a hanging indent? I have tried to copy and paste from a Word document, and sometimes the hanging indent stays and sometimes not. Please help!

Hi Rebeca,

I'm not an expert in writing styles, but from what I've seen hanging idents, and tabs for that matter are not regularly used on the web.  It's possible to do them but there isn't really a button to press within most web editors to allow for it.   @Chris_Hofer  answered a similar question and I've linked to it below.  He references how to fairly simply use code within the html editor to format hanging indents.

How do I apply hanging indent for my references?
