# Customize Post box

 * Hi,
 * Usually when you want to write a new post in WordPress you press the ‘Write’ 
   tab and you’ve got a big Post box which is a blank sheet where you enter your
   writing.
 * Now, I would like to add this piece of coding (a definition list) to show by 
   default when you want to write a post in the post box:
 * `<dl class="articles"><dt></dt><dd></dd></dl>`
 * In short, how can you show this code by default when you want to write a post?:
 * <dl class=”articles”><dt></dt><dd></dd></dl>
 * Hope this makes sense and it is feasible. Or at least I would like to be able
   to add the following tags: <dl>, <dt>, <dd> to the HTML Editor
 * How do you manage to do this?
 * Thierry, Thanks for your help
