ah - that did it

2115. CalGal - 2/21/2001 12:25:17 AM

Lord. What causes that? Does anyone know? Those errors weren't there yesterday.

2116. CalGal - 2/21/2001 12:27:16 AM

Don't get me wrong--I know this means my changes introduced the problem, but I can't figure out why.

I've read up on stylesheets, but not enough. I hate technology. This is why mainframes are better.

2117. rubberducky - 2/21/2001 12:38:00 AM

well, better that than have it be just me!

This is why mainframes are better.

odd comment coming from you considering what you do for a living!

Hello Radio

2122. susanne - 2/28/2001 12:25:59 AM

Cool, it worked!

2123. Uterine Fury - 2/28/2001 11:19:18 PM

Let's see whether I can link this in from Homestead.com

2124. Uterine Fury - 2/28/2001 11:19:27 PM

OH YES!

I have nothing to say, I'm just tired of seeing that name at the end of the screen.

I'm reminded of medieval priests having wet dreams of women and inventing "succubuses" as the excuse for their wandering minds.

2126. CalGal - 3/8/2001 6:20:23 AM

hahahah! It was Diva. But I know what you mean. I have the same reaction. Some things just grate me no end, even when done in fun.

The Mote

2128. CalGal - 3/9/2001 4:45:21 AM

No, you have to use all of the URL, starting with http://

Otherwise it assumes it belongs to this site.

Also, you can change the anchor text to be anything you like.

2129. Autodaffy - 3/9/2001 5:03:31 AM

Rabinowitz

2130. CalGal - 3/9/2001 5:06:51 AM

Perfect.

2131. Autodaffy - 3/9/2001 2:13:14 PM

The URL link advice in "HTML Hints" is cryptic and relies on jargon. Small changes could make it clearer.

2132. CalGal - 3/9/2001 2:23:33 PM

Links:
<a href="http://207.111.67.40/listthreads.asp" target="new">The Mote</a>

should be

The Mote

Don't forget the target="new" part--otherwise, the link will appear in the Mote browser.

You can just copy the above text--from <a href=, etc. and put it in the posting window. Change the URL and the linking text.


Which part isn't clear?

2133. Autodaffy - 3/10/2001 8:58:22 AM

Isn't this clear and concise?

To link:
Use the sequence below substituting the intended url for "x" and substituting the new link text (what will actually appear in your post) for "y."

(Here print your formula with "x" and "y" in place of the sample url and anchor.)



My error on the jargon remark: I was thinking of "anchor text" in your post.
