Subject: Mudcat HTML Guide From: Joe Offer Date: 25 May 00 - 07:49 PM Line BreaksThere is only one HTML tag you need to know to post messages at the Mudcat Cafe - it's the <br> line break. Put one at the end of every line of songs you post, and at the end of paragraphs. If you want to double-space between paragraphs, make sure you put a line break in the blank line. Once again, line breaks look like this:<br>
-Joe Offer, August, 2003- One other note: Try to make avoid using the HTML Paragraph <p> tag at Mudcat, especially when you are posting lyrics. Instead, put a <br> line break in every line, even the empty lines that form the spaces between stanzas. the paragraph tag will make lyrics look right in most browsers, but the blank spaces between stanzas get lost if you copy-and-paste lyrics into a word processor.
Clickable Links (Blue Clicky Things)If you want to direct somebody to an interesting site on the Web (or to information that's at another location at the Mudcat Cafe), the best way to do it is by posting a clickable link. Here's how:I find it's best to open a new browser window [CTRL-N] and navigate your way to the site you want to link to. Highlight and copy [CTRL-C] the URL (address) of the site, and then go back to your Mudcat message and paste [CTRL-V] the URL into your link. Be sure to include the http:// in that URL. The quotation marks are standard procedure, but most links and HTML tags work just fine without quotation marks. -Joe Offer-
Dan Mulligan's Famous HTML GuideNow, take a look at an HTML Guide submitted by Mudcatter Dan Mulligan and find out about some of the fun stuff.-Joe Offer- From Dan Mulligan, April 6, 1998 (edited by Joe Offer): There seem to be a lot of HTML questions being asked these days, so I thought I would try to help out.
Heading Tags are very similar to style tags. Headings come in six sizes, 1-6. 1 is the largest. 6 is smallest. The heading tag also includes an implicit <BR> at the beginning and end. The format for the heading tags is <H#> with # being a number 1-6, and they look like this: <H1> This is a size 1 heading
</H1> <H2> This is a size 2 heading
</H2> <H5> This is a size 5 headingLINKSLinks come in three basic varieties: links to other files, links to the same file and links to pictures.To link to another file on another server, use <A HREF="http://server/path/filename.html"> anchor text </A>. This is called absolute linking. The tag is called an anchor.
Example: <A HREF="http://www.disney.com"> The Walt Disney Home Page </A>
To link to another file on the same server, use <A HREF="path/filename.html"> anchor text </A>. That is called relative linking.
Example: <A HREF="../auction/Auction.html"> The Auction Block</A> Click here for more HTML stuffNote: I copied most of this from a message Dan Mulligan posted in another thread. It's a great piece of work, and deserves its own thread. Thanks, Dan. Because of the value of this information as a permanent reference, I will maintain this thread. Feel free to post messages to this thread, but note that we reserve the right to keep this thread as a reference by editing or deleting messages. Thanks, Dan. -Joe Offer |
Subject: Posting Chords From: Joe Offer Date: 25 May 00 - 07:50 PM The best way to post chords here is the use the preformat tag <pre> before and </pre> after the section with the chords, making sure to use automatic linebreaks or put <br> line breaks after every line (but not both). The preformat tag sets a monospaced font, so every letter takes up the same amount of space on the screen (normal fonts take less space for the letter i than they do for m, so it's hard to keep things aligned from one line to the line below it. The best way to prepare chords for posting is to type them up as a text file and get them to look just the way you want them to look, and then add the line breaks and preformat tags, and then paste the whole thing into a Mudcat message box. Oh - be sure to use spaces to separate chords, because tabs don't aren't always consistent. -Joe Offer- Here's a great idea from Walter Corey: This is a format I've been using to type up songs. Bold letters indicate where the chord changes. You could use underlines also. Here is an example: NOBODY KNOWS YOU WHEN YOU'RE DOWN AND OUT - (Jimmy Cox)This involves more HTML coding to set off the bold, but it's not too much more complicated than putting the line breaks in. I don't know whether people would find this less intrusive than embedding the chords right in the line. When I'm using a lot of start/stop tags like Walter does in this situation, I type them out once and copy-paste them where I need them, filling in between them when I need to. So, I'd type <b></b> only once, highlight and copy [CTRL-C] it, and then paste [CTRL-V] it wherever I need it. -Joe Offer- |
Subject: Copy-and-Paste & Line Breaks From: Joe Offer Date: 25 May 00 - 07:58 PM Posting Lyrics with Line BreaksHere's how to put line breaks in lyrics you type up in Microsoft Word. The process should be much the same in other word processors.
You want to replace the paragraph mark with another one PLUS the line break. Otherwise, you lose all your paragraph marks and what you see on your screen is hard to read, and hard to work with. Remember, when you are posting lyrics, you want to have <br> line breaks in each and every line, including the blank lines between stanzas and in the paragraphs for any comments you might want to make along with the lyrics. Please do NOT use <p> paragraph marks, because paragraph marks often don't work correctly when you copy-and-paste lyrics from the Forum into a word processor. When all the line breaks are just how you want them, highlight the whole thing in your word processor and copy it ( [CTRL-C] is the keyboard shortcut for copying) then paste [CTRL-V] it into the message box at Mudcat, and then hit the grey "submit message" button. Keyboard ShortcutsAssuming you are using Windows 95 or 98 and Netscape or Microsoft Internet Explorer, here's what you do:
I often like to use keyboard shortcuts instead of using my mouse to find things from menus. Here are some handy shortcuts:
By the way, note that this thread is primarily to be used as a reference and a place for people to post HTML questions and get answers.

Subject: RE: Mudcat HTML Guide From: John in Brisbane Date: 03 Jun 00 - 02:07 AM I find that AOLPress goves me the best of both worlds. For run of the mill layout stuff you simply type the text into a word processor format - WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get). You can toggle to the HTML code to see what's really happening and there are excellent tutorials to help you along the way for the more complex stuff, like tables or linking images. When you're in HTML mode you can copy the code direct to the Mudcat Forum or save the .htm file for later use.
IT'S FREE! I downloaded mine from ZD-Net, but any decent search engine should find it. A professional Web developer recommended it to me on the first instance.

Subject: RE: Mudcat HTML Guide From: GUEST,Accentless Mrr Date: 14 Jun 00 - 03:23 PM Hi, can anyone find anything in either HTML or Word that will allow for a LONG umlaut, not 2 dots but more like quotation marks that go over a letter, or 2 acute accents together on one letter? I have sought in vain so far and asked on a few random threads... but perhaps y'all might know... Also, is there any way to do a single accent that is perfectly vertical, e.g. neither acute nor grave? The reason I ask is that Hungarian has both those diacritical marks (the neither-acute-nor-grave accent and the long umlaut or double accent) and nobody in my family so far has been able to figure out how to make them using regular software like Word or html. Thanks, all! |
Subject: RE: Mudcat HTML Guide From: MudGuard Date: 14 Jun 00 - 03:38 PM Sirry, the accents you want are not possible with html entities. In Word you would need a font that has these characters - I do not know of any font that has these. MudGuard |

If you have unlimited Internet service (or don't mind paying for the time), feel free to practice HTML in one of our practice threads, or start a new practice thread. We occasionally clean out the practice threads by deleting messages, so you don't need to worry about overburdening the Mudcat.

Subject: RE: Mudcat HTML Guide From: Marion Date: 25 Oct 00 - 05:17 PM Two questions: 1. Is there a way to make a link to a particular post in another thread, rather than to the beginning of the thread? 2. Would it be OK to put a link (either here or in the FAQ thread) to an HTML practice thread? I think that would be easier than finding an existing thread every time I want to do a test, and less annoying than the proliferation of new test threads. Marion |
Subject: RE: Mudcat HTML Guide From: GUEST,Mary in Kentucky Date: 25 Oct 00 - 05:26 PM Marion - question #1) Yes. Go to the top of the thread where it lists the names of people who have posted. Click on the person's post you want to link to. The URL will have a number for that particular post. Highlight it and use it. Example: Your post above was http://mudcat.org/thread.cfm?threadid=21858&messages=26#327216 I'll link to it by putting that in the brackets here. |

Subject: Blue Clickys Within Mudcat From: Joe Offer Date: 22 Dec 00 - 04:00 PM If you put blue click in the "filter" box and set the age to three years, you'll find all sorts of weird stuff. Well, I thought I'd add a little to the confusion. As you all have been well-taught by now, a blue clicky this is made this way [Joe, paste in boilerplate instructions here]:
OK, so now I want to add a little thing to complicate matters. As you know, we've had some problem accessing Mudcat at the regular www.mudcat.org address lately, and have had to get here by loki and ragtime and shorty and other addresses. Therefore, somebody might end up posting a link to ragtime.mudcat.org/threads.cfm or something like that - and then Ragtime might go away, or Max might rename her. So, I'd like to suggest that whey you post liks to locations that are within Mudcat, you leave off the http://www.mudcat.org part. As long as you'r linking from Mudcat to Mudcat, it works. So, if you're linking to the FAQ, your link would look like this:

Subject: RE: Mudcat HTML Guide From: Snuffy Date: 22 Dec 00 - 06:49 PM Joe, I assume that's one Double Quote " ([SHIFT]+"2"), not two Single Quotes ''? |
Subject: RE: Mudcat HTML Guide From: Joe Offer Date: 22 Dec 00 - 07:02 PM Yeah, Snuffy, double quotes - and the quotes are optional here at Mudcat. Hmmm. My keyboard has the quotes next to the "enter" key, and the @ sign above the "2." -Joe Offer- |
Subject: RE: Mudcat HTML Guide From: Jon Freeman Date: 22 Dec 00 - 07:29 PM Yes Joe, Snuffy like myself will be using a UK keyboard - different to the US one. Double quote is shift 2 on ours and @ is above single quote next to the enter key. Jon |
Subject: RE: Mudcat HTML Guide From: Snuffy Date: 22 Dec 00 - 07:42 PM Sorry, I only saw the " at the beginning, didn't notice there was one at the end too. So as it's all internal on Mudcat, we can ignore both of them? Wassail! V |
Subject: RE: Mudcat HTML Guide From: Jon Freeman Date: 23 Dec 00 - 03:16 AM Just one small point with regards to Joe's excellent suggestion. Very occasionally, links to threads are given in the Help Forum. These still require the "http://www.mudcat.org" bit to work. As for the quotes, I will leave that to someone more qualified in HTML to be the judge but my understanding is that dropping the quotes is non-standard HTML which could mean that some browser may not interpret the link correctly (not that I am aware of a browser that fails on this). If quotes are used, it has to be both: the most common cause of a locked up thread for Netscape users is a missing closing quote on a link. Jon |
Subject: RE: Mudcat HTML Guide From: Joe Offer Date: 23 Dec 00 - 03:26 AM MudGuard will slap my hand for saying this, but I've never seen a link where quotes are needed (although there are some rare situations) - and I've had to fix jillions of links where the closing quotes were left off and that locked the thread. -Joe Offer- |

HTML standard says links do not need quotes unless they contain some special characters (like ampersand &, equal sign =, question mark ? ...). On the other hand, most browsers do not need the quotes even if these characters are in the link. MudGuard wishing a merry christmas |
Subject: HTML Color Chart From: Joe Offer Date: 15 Mar 01 - 02:46 AM You'll find a really nice color chart here at HTML Goodies. I suppose it is "more correct" to use the hexadecimal number codes for numbers, but I find the words usually work and are far easier to use (hex numbers have always driven me batty). Note that specifications are often the same in various HTML tags - several can use COLOR=XXX or BGCOLOR=XXX, WIDTH=XXX% (you can use numbers, but percentages work slick with this), ALIGN=(right, left, center), SIZE=XXX. OK, so here's <hr size=25 color=pink width=60% align=right>: -Joe Offer- |

Subject: RE: Mudcat HTML Guide From: JohnInKansas Date: 19 Jul 01 - 12:38 PM GUEST, Accentless Mrr asked some time ago (14-Jun-00 - 03:23 PM) about how to produce a couple of Hungarian accented letters in HTML or in Word. So far as I can tell, HTML is limited to the special (&) characters defined in the standard, but in Word, there is a method that will work (sort of). The marks requested were a "LONG umlaut, not 2 dots but more like quotation marks that go over a letter, or 2 acute accents together on one letter," and a "single accent that is perfectly vertical." I'm sure that Guest is either long gone, or has become someone we know and love, but in case he/she is still around, or if some others might want this information: In Word, use can use an "equation" field, with the "overstrike" option ( \o) to place two characters "in the same space." In older versions of Word, it was very difficult to find the Help file information for fields. The easiest method was to "insert" a field, type a known field type into it, and hit F1. For help on fields in older versions of Word: Type "Ctrl-F9, eq, F1" which will take you directly to help for the equation field. Unfortunately, this no longer works in newer versions of Word, but in newer versions you can open help, select the "index" tab, and type "eq" in the "Find" box, and it will now take you to what you need, at least for this one particular kind of field. When you type a Ctrl-F9, Word inserts a blank field, which looks like a pair of Curly Braces "{}". When you insert a field, you will usually be switched to "View Fields" mode, but this can depend on how your preferences are set up. You can switch back and forth between "View Fields" where you see the "code" inside the field, and "View Result" where you see what the field does, using Shift-F9. Depending on your version of Word, this may turn on View Fields for the entire document or only for fields within an area you have highlighted. This can be a little disconcerting until you learn what to expect. Using a plain "Double Quote" for the long umlaut, keystrokes would be: Ctrl-F9 eq \o (A,") The result will look like { eq \o (A,") }, and your cursor will be "inside the field, right after the ")". If you hit F9 ("Update Field") you will (usually) be switched back to View Result and will see an A with a " typed on top of it. If it doesn't change automatically, just hit Shift-F9. The straight "Single Quote" can be used in the same way for the second mark requested. The last step is to "unlink" the field. With your cursor still in the field, or with the area that contains the field highlighted ("selected" is the uSoft term) do a Ctrl-Shift-F9. This will leave you with the two characters printed on top of each other. Especially in newer versions of Word, the Autocorrect function will probably be turned on to put "curly quotes" in when you type either a " or a '. You can turn this option off (and probably should when your writing HTML?), but there is also the option to hit a Ctrl-Z immediately after typing the ", which will "undo" the autocorrect and leave you with the straight ones. For more convential marks, Word lets you hold down Ctrl while you type the "mark" and puts that mark over the next character you type. This only works with certain marks, but is good for the acute and grave accents. Unfortunately, there isn't a "magic code" built in for the special marks requested. There are additional things you can do to move the marks around to get them where you want them, but anyone interested can see the details in the Word Help files. If you really want a special symbol to look good, you may have to play with a little bit once. Once you get ONE, you can just copy it where you want it. I know this sounds terribly complex, but when you get the keystrokes down, it's really quite simple. "Ctrl-F9 eq \o (U,") F9 Ctrl-Shift-F9" isn't really that tough, to get a very special character, especially once you understand what the keystrokes mean. Unfortunately, none of this works in HTML, and if you put these kinds of things in your HTML to post, they will probably be something else when they show up here. - :-( John |
Subject: RE: Mudcat HTML Guide From: JohnInKansas Date: 02 Nov 01 - 12:58 PM Bill D - and others who might be interested: There has been much discussion about "characters" in what turned into an html practice thread at I can do ¿... recently. Some of you might be interested in a couple of things I ran into while doing some "off-site" poking around, and here's a summary of some of the interesting stuff that's scattered around in that thread: George Seto suggests http://www.owlnet.rice.edu/~jwmitch/iso8859-1.html, for a nice clean chart of some of the html special characters. Nice clean site, and could be useful. One of the few places I've seen comment (brief) in differences between PC and Mac, but unfortuantely no discussion. If you want the "real poop" you can consult the W3C Committee HTML 4.01 Specification . If you go down a couple of pages to the table of contents, you can click into the character definitions there. (This has been posted before, but it fits in with the topic here.) If you want to see what a character looks like - especially ones that don't work, you can go to Unicode website, or you can go directly to the Online Unicode Handbook. Bill D suggested a couple of pieces of pretty nice looking freeware called AllChars and Extended Character Map. While I have other utilities for what they do, they look like pretty clean stuff, and could be helpful to others. I've posted the HTML 4 "defined characters" at HTML CHARACTERS REDACT, along with how they work on my setup. There have been some additions, particularly relating to what fonts people are likely to have. An interesting site for those reallly interested in all this character coding stuff is at Alan Wood's Homesite. Some interesting comparisons of different "character definitions." I'd take a couple of technical issues with some of what's in his character comparisons, but the information seems basically sound. Microsoft has a free plug-in that enhances the information you get when you right-click on a font and choose properties - for TrueType fonts only. With the plug-in installed, instead of a 2-tab display of the name of the font (and sometimes a version number) you get 9 tabs that tell you things like how many characters are included, whether it includes Unicode extended characters, whether you can imbed it, and quite a bit more. There is a brief description on Alan Wood's site, but the download is free from Microsoft typography. Alan Wood also mentioned an interesting freeware utility called Character Agent. His description is here or you can get it (for free - if you give them your email addy) from Bjondi. The Extended Character Map suggested by Bill D appears to display only the "ANSI" range of characters, while Character Agent displays the full Unicode range for your installed fonts. Character rendering in CharAgent is a little weak, but it seems to cover a lot more ground. John
