Yo! I'm experimenting with the <ul> and <dl> lists.

  • First Bullet.
    First Heading
    First Text. I'm making this paragraph long to make sure that I get a few lines of text. This confirms the indentation behavior.
    This text is after the closing text tag.
    Second Heading
    This text is between the heading close and text start tags.
    Second Text
  • Second Bullet

It looks like the end heading (</dt>) and and end text (</dd>) tags are irrelevant.

Experimenting with the <BLOCKQUOTE> tags:

The following text is inside of a blockquote:

2290. Angel-Five - 11/3/99 6:58:48 PM
"And look, you gibbering hand-wringer..."
This is a blockquote that uses the preformated text tag (<PRE>):
2291. Angel-Five - 11/3/99 7:01:07 PM

"And, to forestall your brain-gimped ecstasy..."

2276. Angel-Five - 11/3/99 4:27:08 AM --
"Despite Blooodnconfusion's cheeseball maunderings..."
Notice the different font.

575. CalGal - 11/8/1999 12:06:18 PM

Honk if this looks like Times New Roman.

576. phillipdavid - 11/8/1999 12:11:05 PM

It does not, Calgal (at least for me).

577. IrvingSnodgrass - 11/8/1999 12:15:56 PM

It looks like Officina Sans Serif to me.

578. CalGal - 11/8/1999 12:24:04 PM

It's Trebuchet MS. I am finally getting around to redoing FrayFilm, and the original font I used wasn't available on all workstations. Thanks for the feedback.

Keep those calls and letters coming, folks!

There is another way of doing it too. Type the post you want in Go To Mote # and click Go. Then copy the URL in the location window and use it as reference.

582. Roadrage - 11/10/1999 6:53:09 PM

Pelle

Slick! Thx

583. PelleNilsson - 11/10/1999 7:51:50 PM

Of course, that method works across threads too.

584. Thoughtful - 11/11/1999 1:10:25 AM

Dusty,
I thought in the early days of the mote, calgal had posted a page or a link to a page with all the standard html colors by name. I just went looking for it and couldn't find it....it sure would be a good thing to have a link to in the butterscotch bar above.
Thanks --- I'll look a little further and let you know if I find it.

585. Thoughtful - 11/11/1999 1:25:24 AM

Dusty,
I found it here.
Thanks,
thoughtful

586. Dusty - 11/11/1999 1:55:19 AM

Thoughtful

Good idea. I haven't learned how to do that yet, but I'll learn.

Within a thread, you can type < msg num=500> to refer to another post. (Remove the first blank.)

Example:
Message # 500


I think there's also a way to do it across threads, but I'm on a phone call at the moment, so I can't look it up. I'll try to report back when I have a chance to find it.)

588. CalGal - 11/11/1999 5:22:17 AM

Since I went looking for it myself:

< msg thread=8 num=2668 >
