Hi I am using tiny mce major version 3 in my application. Below is the code to initialize tinymce.

 <!DOCTYPE html>
 <script type="text/javascript" src="tiny_mce/tiny_mce.js"></script>
 <script>
    tinyMCE.init({
        width : "100%",
        height : "100%",
        theme : "advanced",
        selector :"textarea#elm1",
        plugins : "autolink,lists,pagebreak,style,layer,table,save,advhr,advimage,advlink,emotions,iespell,inlinepopups,insertdatetime,preview,media,searchreplace,print,contextmenu,paste,directionality,fullscreen,noneditable,visualchars,nonbreaking,xhtmlxtras,template,wordcount,advlist,autosave,visualblocks",
        paste_retain_style_properties : 'all',
        valid_children : "+span[div],+var[div|p]",
        forced_root_block : "",

        theme_advanced_buttons1 : "bold,italic,underline,strikethrough,|,forecolor,backcolor,|,undo,redo,|,bullist,numlist,|,fontselect,fontsizeselect,|,code",

       plugins: "fullscreen",
       toolbar: "fullscreen",

       theme_advanced_toolbar_location : "top",
       theme_advanced_toolbar_align : "left",
       theme_advanced_statusbar_location : "bottom",
       theme_advanced_resizing : false,
       convert_fonts_to_spans : false,
       cleanup_on_startup : false,
        cleanup : false, 
      // Style formats
        style_formats : [
          {title : 'Bold text', inline : 'b'},
          {title : 'Red text', inline : 'span', styles : {color : '#ff0000'}},
          {title : 'Red header', block : 'h1', styles : {color : '#ff0000'}},
          {title : 'Example 1', inline : 'span', classes : 'example1'},
          {title : 'Example 2', inline : 'span', classes : 'example2'},
          {title : 'Table styles'},
          {title : 'Table row 1', selector : 'tr', classes : 'tablerow1'}
         ],

         setup : function(ed) {
           ed.onBeforeRenderUI.add(function(ed, cm) {

          });
         ed.onLoadContent.add(function(ed, o) {

         });
      }
  });


 </script>  

 <body>
<textarea id="elm1" name="area"></textarea>
</body>

when I loaded the html code in tiny mce it is changing the existing html code as given below.

Html code I wrote :

  <head>
     <title>Confirmation Letter</title>
     <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
  </head>
 <body vlink="#666633" alink="#ffffcc" bgcolor="#ffffff" link="#cc9966">
 <table width="700" height="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
    <tbody>
        <tr>    
          <td align="left">
            <p>
              <font size="2" face="Verdana">
               one <br/> <br/>
               two <br/> <br/>
               three <br/><br>
               four <br><br>
               <strong>List of items</strong>
                <ul>
                   <li>list1 data1</li>
                   <li>list2 data2</li>
                   <li>list3 data3</li>
                </ul>
                    Click <a href="file1">here</a> to subscribe our newsletter for exclusive promotions. 
            </font>
            <font size="1" face="Verdana">
                <br/><a href="file2">Privacy Policy</a>.
            </font>
         </p>
          <a href="file3"><img border="0" src="image1" align="right"></a>
                <br/>
        </td>
        </tr>
       </tbody>
      </table>
     </body>

html code generated by tinymce

  Confirmation Letter
  <table width="700" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
  <tbody>
  <tr>
    <td align="left">
     <p><font size="2" face="Verdana"> one <br /> <br /> two <br /> <br /> three <br /><br /> four <br /><br /> <strong>List of items</strong></font></p>
    <ul>
      <li>list1 data1</li>
      <li>list2 data2</li>
      <li>list3 data3</li>
    </ul>
   <p><font size="2" face="Verdana">Click <a href="file1">here</a> to subscribe our newsletter for exclusive promotions. </font> 
   <font size="1" face="Verdana"> <br /><a href="file2">Privacy Policy</a>. </font></p>
   <a href="file3"><img src="image1" alt="" align="right" border="0" /></a>            </td>
     </tr>
  </tbody>
  </table>

I kept the "ul" tag also within "p" tag in order to apply font size 2. But tiny mce is keeping "ul" tag outside "p" tag as a result font size 2 is not applying. As a result there is a difference between the font size of normal text and text within "ul" . Please help me as how to resolve this issues so that font size 2 should also be applied to to the "ul" item as well. Thank You

That is because your code is not valid HTML code and Tiny MCE fixed it. Look at this answer for more information.

    @rajanichowdhary `font` tag [not supported](http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_font.asp) in html5. And instead of `size="2"` you might to use a CSS. For example `ul li {font-size:15px}`. This is very simple example. Read more about it on [w3cschool](http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/pr_font_font-size.asp) – Londeren Jan 21 '16 at 05:58
  • Thank You I understand. If we want to be in html4 is there any possibility to apply font tag to "ul" element. – rajani chowdhary Jan 21 '16 at 06:10
