This is a not-very-brief reference guide to every LiveJournal specific tag and markup that you can use in an entry. Many of them can be used simply by pressing a button in the Rich Text Editor, but some of them have to be added in via the HTML editor. This guide explains how to use them all with the HTML editor.

Also, the language code for Chinese is "zh", not "ch". (That would be Chamorro, spoken on Guam.)

I'm holding off on fixing the language codes until I can get the list of codes LJ uses and can test them all myself.

Could you maybe help me with some other LJ feature? Sometimes I see such text boxes where you can scroll to read the complete text which you can also copy. I mean a box like here...

What you see there isn't an LJ feature, it's a HTML tag called . You can read more about them at http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_textarea.asp">w3schools.com, but the basic idea is that you enter

A couple of notes on the tags: with lj-cut, there's an option you can set in the console to always show posts with the cut expanded. FAQ #75 contains instructions on how to do this for the recent entries and friends pages. The Semagic client suggests that there's also an "opt_ljcut_disable_day" option presumably for the archive pages.
With embedding, it's also possible (or at least it was when I last tried it back in 2009 - dunno if it still works) to embed from other sites using the OBJECT or EMBED tags. If you use one of those when LJ displays the entry it wraps the tag in an IFRAME that's hosted somewhere on lj-toys.com, which restricts what the other site can do to your page.

I think that only works for specific, whitelisted sites, but that information could be outdated.
