Any time you want to import data instantly, rather than wait for the next scheduled import to occur, you can click the Import Now button.

Text wrapped in <blockquote> tags
Cras sollicitudin metus. In hac habitasse platea dictumst. Mauris nec lacus. Sed ultrices lacus eget augue. Donec vel orci eget ipsum mattis ullamcorper. Pellentesque cursus facilisis dolor.

Images:
Here's the code to use when embedding images (create a snippet now!) An example is below.

<div class="clear-block">
<div class="thumbnail">
<a href="/communities/files/u391/18520-2.png"><img src="/communities/files/u391/18520-2_0.png" alt="" /></a>
</div>
<p><a href="/communities/files/u391/18520-2.png">Click to view</a>.</p>
<p>Figure 2 - Selecting the container with the driver</p>
</div>

Click to view.

Code Snippets:

<pre>
Use <pre class="code"> tags to surround code. If lines of code are too long, they will scroll gracefully.
  <xml>Single indents are two (2) spaces, not tabs.
    <item>Double indents are four (4) spaces, not tabs.
    <item>Double
    <item>Double
      <item>Triple indents are six (6) spaces, not tabs.
  </xml>
Internet Explorer will cut off the last line of your code if you don't add a carriage return before the closing pre tag.

</pre>

This code:

<table>
  <tr><th>Optional Table Heading</th><th>Optional Table Heading</th></tr>
  <tr class="even"><td>Table Data</td><td>Table Data</td></tr>
  <tr class="odd"><td>Table Data</td><td>Table Data</td></tr>
  <tr class="even"><td>Table Data</td><td>Table Data</td></tr>
  <tr class="odd"><td>Table Data</td><td>Table Data</td></tr>
</table>

Builds this table:

Optional Table Heading Optional Table Heading
Table Data Table Data
Table Data Table Data
Table Data Table Data
