Just practicing actually , or trying my hand as some few others might say.

48. ScottLoar - 9/11/1999 9:11:49 AM

"Most impressive" results.

49. CalGal - 9/11/1999 9:12:57 AM

Scott--In case you didn't see it, there is a link for HTML hints. Although you seem to be doing fine without it.

50. ScottLoar - 9/11/1999 9:14:58 AM

Actually, that is exactly the place I got these tricks from.

51. CalGal - 9/11/1999 9:16:05 AM

Oh. I am pleased, then. And glad to see you here.

52. robertjayb - 9/11/1999 9:20:12 AM

BOLD italics?

How did he do that?

53. ScottLoar - 9/11/1999 9:20:33 AM

You people must do everything possible to solicit new talents lest this become altogether too clubby and in familiarity we become the very things we dislike in others.

54. CalGal - 9/11/1999 9:21:36 AM

Well, that's the plan.

55. ScottLoar - 9/11/1999 9:22:49 AM

To make a bold italic just go , of course with the word you want so treated in between.

56. robertjayb - 9/11/1999 9:24:53 AM


Huh?

57. CalGal - 9/11/1999 9:28:33 AM

(b)(i)like this(/b)(/i)

with the angle bracket substitution.

like this

58. ScottLoar - 9/11/1999 9:28:51 AM

I'll space out the sequence so it shows on the screen as < i > < b > word or phrase to be boldly italicized < / b > < / i >. There.

59. CalGal - 9/11/1999 9:32:26 AM

Hey, that's interesting. You don't get the BR command if you put a space? Cool.

< so I should be able to do this >

and not get a break command?

60. CalGal - 9/11/1999 9:32:55 AM

Hot damn. Is that general knowledge, Scott? About the spaces?

61. ScottLoar - 9/11/1999 9:34:31 AM

No, I just figured it out. Not too difficult, really. I only hope this tricks don't subject us to tortured pages and pages.

62. ScottLoar - 9/11/1999 9:35:38 AM

Corrigendum: these

63. CalGal - 9/11/1999 9:36:18 AM

I never questioned the " < " restriction.

What tricks--the HTML stuff? That is an ongoing debate. In general, I like the HTML capability, but the problems of inexperienced users can be icky. This last problem showed how a small error can cause real problems in the HTML producing the page.

But that's what this thread is for--testing.

64. robertjayb - 9/11/1999 9:37:41 AM

Okay

Much obliged, Y'all!

65. ScottLoar - 9/11/1999 9:39:18 AM

Tricks such as THIS for ten pages.

66. CalGal - 9/11/1999 9:40:19 AM

Oh, I think it will all settle down after a while.

And on the plus side, you can post nice pretty tables in International and Language.
