In this book, you will find a number of styles of text that distinguish between different kinds of information. Here are some examples of these styles, and an explanation of their meaning.

Code words in text are shown as follows: "Unzip and copy the birthday block directory."

A block of code is set as follows:

<object width="190">
<param name="movie" value="http://localhost/moodle/file.php/2/invaders.swf">
<embed src="http://localhost/moodle/file.php/2/invaders.swf" width="190">
</embed>
</object>

New terms and important words are shown in bold. Words that you see on the screen, in menus or dialog boxes for example, appear in the text like this: "You will then be able to add the Session Theme block from the Blocks menu."
