I wonder whether a bookmarklet might work for you

Create a bookmark in your web browser with the URL

javascript:(function(a){a.value=a.value.slice(0,a.selectionStart)+"<emph render='italic'>"+a.value+"</emph>";})(document.activeElement);

and give it whatever name you like, maybe something like "Add emph tag".

Then just select the test you want to add the tag to and click the bookmarklet. I've tested it in Firefox and Chrome. You can change the emph tag in the "" sections of the bookmarklet if you want to use other tags.

not currently have the ability to use the API either.

Subject: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] italics

[This email originated from outside of UNCW]

Hello,

I'm wondering if there is a way, in the SUI, to enter italics into component 
titles (as well as other fields) without being required to manually enter the 
tags around the desired words one wants italicized.
I understand how to do it manually, but I feel that I might be missing 
something about how to do it without manual entry. AT had a dropdown from which 
one could select desired tagging. This wasn't ideal but was better than 
nothing. We don't have the capability of using the API on a daily basis to make 
changes, nor do we have access to the backend--I'm just asking whether it's 
possible in the SUI.

Thanks,
Wendy
