1. I don't know how to do strike throughs but
type (b) before the text that you want bold and (/b) after except use brackets.

Click on the HTML look up table for more info.

2. Not sure how to do the striking thing, but bold is in
the HTML lookup table that is right above the box where you post messages.

3. I think crossing out is s in square brackets
with /s in sq brackets at the end (it means "strikeover")

8. DU Seems to Accept Most HTML Tags
If something you want to do is not in the "HTML Lookup Table" pop-up box, you may be able to find it on the web by searching for "HTML tags." For example:

http://werbach.com/barebones/barebones.html#general

The only difference is DU substitutes sqaure brackets for the "<>" brackets that most sites use. So,

Bold is "b" in square brackets.
Strikeout is "s" in square brackets.

You can do some nifty things pretty easily. It's worth looking around and experimenting.
