Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: Joe Offer Date: 30 May 00 - 08:44 PM Brendy, there's a way to do it, but I forget. Can somebody help us remember - how do I post a link that will open something in a new window? -Joe Offer- Oh, AndyG has an example here. Put a space and then target=new right after the URL, still within the <angle brackets>. -Joe Offer- Walter, I posted your chords idea in the Mudcat HTML Guide. It's a slick idea. -Joe Offer- |

Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: Brendy Date: 30 May 00 - 08:45 PM < href="http://vocal.local.ie/local_post_data/ubbcode.html"> This is where I got it from, Joe I just copied and pasted, but they do say something about UBB code. B. |

Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: Brendy Date: 30 May 00 - 08:48 PM Well would you look at that!! Try again Time for bed, I think!!! I'll check it out tomorrow. B. |

Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: MudGuard Date: 31 May 00 - 02:15 AM Brendy, over at vocal.local.ie UBB code is used. Here we use pure HTML. Joe, I have to correct you. If you use target=new the link will open the url in a browser window with the name new (if it does not exist, a new window with name new is created, but if it already exists, no new window is created). To get a brandnew, unused, fresh ... window, you have to use target=_blank. _blank is not a name of a window, it is the order to create a new window. If you click on two links with target=new, you have one window showing the url of the last-clicked link. If you click on two links with target=new, you have two windows, one showing the url of the first link, the other the url of the second link. (It even works with only one link: with _blank you get a new window every time you click on the link, with any other target name including new you get exactly one window) HTH MudGuard |

Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: MudGuard Date: 31 May 00 - 02:28 AM Oh-oh, the copy and paste devil was here. Of course it should read (corrected part in red): If you click on two links with target=new, you have one window showing the url of the last-clicked link. If you click on two links with target=_blank, you have two windows, one showing the url of the first link, the other the url of the second link. (It even works with only one link: with _blank you get a new window every time you click on the link, with any other target name including new you get exactly one window) MudGuard |

Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: Brendy Date: 31 May 00 - 02:56 AM Good man Mudguard. I only came upon the place by accident, and hidden away in it's FAQ was that page. Rather than instigate a discussion on UBB (which I know nothing of), I'll go off and have a look into the differences between the 'styles'(???) Unless, of course, you feel like giving a brief synopsis!! Thanks for that, and thanks again, Joe. B. |

Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: Joe Offer Date: 31 May 00 - 03:04 AM forum home Mudguard, ich spreche nur Bahnhof. -Joe Offer- |
|
Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: Brendy Date: 31 May 00 - 03:12 AM Right. Let's see Fat Americans? |
|
Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: MudGuard Date: 31 May 00 - 03:18 AM Brendy, almost correct. You should put " not only after the url but also before it! Though Internet Explorer does not crash because of this (one of the few reasons why it does NOT crash ;-) ) other browsers might get problems with unmatched "s. MudGuard |
|
Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: Brendy Date: 31 May 00 - 03:19 AM While doing 'research' for "Improper Language" *BG* This one was with the 'target=new' command |
|
Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: Brendy Date: 31 May 00 - 03:23 AM I have a habit of doing that Mudguard!!! The 'code' is still a bit alien to me, and I overlook those 'little' things sometimes. But this brings us back to that old discussion again doesn't it? *BG* B. |
|
Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: Brendy Date: 31 May 00 - 03:26 AM Forgive my ignorance again, but I marked no difference in the result between the 'fat americans' link, which was 'target=_blank', and that last one. What should I have 'experienced'? B. |
|
Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: Brendy Date: 31 May 00 - 03:29 AM It's OK, it has already been explained - I don't understand, that's all. I'll learn!! B. |
|
Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: MudGuard Date: 31 May 00 - 03:43 AM Once again: click twice (not doubleclick but click pause click) on the link with target=new and you have one window. click twice on the link with target=_blank and you have two windows. As long as there is no browser window with the given name around the behaviour is the same. But as soon as you have a brouser window with the given name, instead of creating a new window the window with the given name is used again. MudGuard |
|
Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: Brendy Date: 31 May 00 - 03:49 AM I get you now!!!??? But I've got Windows set up for the single click function, so I don't get a chance to click it again. I see what you're getting at, though. B. |
|
Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: MudGuard Date: 31 May 00 - 03:50 AM Just switch back to the window where the link is, and then click the link again. MudGuard |

Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: John in Brisbane Date: 16 Jun 00 - 12:50 AM Help please! I've done something wrong with the HTML in the previous two posts. What I would ideally like is to display the image from the nominated URL at approx. the size of (say) a playing card or packet of fags. Regards, John
PS I've written a Mudcat Notation Guide which I'd like to finish off, but this part of the HTML eludes me. |
|
Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: MudGuard Date: 16 Jun 00 - 07:34 AM Apart from the question whether it is allowed to do this (copyright and Mudcatiquette), you have to give the size in pixels (or alternatively in percent of the window size, but this tends to distort images). Or you do not give the size, then the image is displayed in its original size (which is in your case a good approx to your requirement). To place it in the center (what you tried to do with align="middle"), you have to put it in a center tag (align does not work for images - heaven knows why). So to do what you wanted, the code is: <center><img SRC="http://www.jazclass.aust.com/bt111.gif" ALT="Music Notes and Rests" ></center> MudGuard |

Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: John in Brisbane Date: 18 Jun 00 - 08:06 AM Thank you Mudguard. I have permission from the site owner and in this instance believe that I have Joe's imprimatur in principle. I need to do some more experimenting. Regards, John |

Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: Jon Freeman Date: 07 Aug 00 - 06:53 PM I can't see the font, Twinkette (I had to view the source to see the question). PS, do you know anything about Hurdy-Gurdies? Jon |
|
Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: CarolC Date: 07 Aug 00 - 07:07 PM My brain hurts! |
|
Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: GUEST,Twinkette Date: 07 Aug 00 - 07:07 PM What an odd thing to ask Jon. I know nothing of hurdy-gurdies, but I'm haunted by their sound, like a mad ghost wailing in the night.We have to stop meeting like this! |

Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: Morticia Date: 07 Aug 00 - 07:07 PM can somebody explain( simply....person of very little brain here) how to get the pretty colours? |
|
Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: CarolC Date: 07 Aug 00 - 07:09 PM My brain hurts! |
|
Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: GUEST,Twinkette Date: 07 Aug 00 - 07:25 PM Morticia, here are some examples: <font color="red"red</font> <font color="blue" blue</font> <font color="green"green</font> <font color="yellow"yellow</font> <font color="purple"purple</font> |
|
Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: GUEST,Twinkette Date: 07 Aug 00 - 07:31 PM Of course I messed that up. This will work better: <font color="red">red</font> <font color="blue">blue</font> <font color="green">green</font> <font color="yellow">yellow</font> <font color="purple"> purple</font> The colored text is whatever you type in. Everything else must be the same, though.

Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: CarolC Date: 07 Aug 00 - 07:42 PM My brain hurts! |

|
Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: Joe Offer Date: 07 Aug 00 - 08:35 PM So, is Carol a color? What happens if I turn it to brain? -Joe- |
|
Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: CarolC Date: 07 Aug 00 - 08:37 PM How do you make the letters bigger or smaller than usual? |
|
Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: Joe Offer Date: 07 Aug 00 - 08:38 PM OK, so I don't understand this - I put <font color="Carol"> and <font color="brain"> in the tags above. How come they worked? -Joe Offer- |
|
Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: Joe Offer Date: 07 Aug 00 - 08:42 PM <big> and </big> and <small> and </small> You'll find all sorts of good links on our FAQ page (and in Mudcat links. One link listed is the Mudcat HTML Guide (click). -Joe Offer- |
|
Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: Joe Offer Date: 07 Aug 00 - 08:44 PM BIG small |
|
Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: CarolC Date: 07 Aug 00 - 08:52 PM Joe, I have no idea what you were trying to say when you changed Carol to brain, but I gotta tell you my stomach hurts from laughing too hard. How did you get that awful color? I did it by accident. |
|
Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: Bill D Date: 07 Aug 00 - 08:52 PM as a matter of interest...that 'types & notes' thing that John in Brisbane posted above, when I right-click and select 'view image'...it comes up full size! |
|
Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: CarolC Date: 07 Aug 00 - 09:07 PM CAROL brain |
|
Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: Jeri Date: 07 Aug 00 - 10:00 PM Wacky, ain't it Joe? Maybe the "ca" in "Carol" = carmine, and the "br" in "brain" = brown?
<font color="bread"bread</font>
|
|
Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: Jeri Date: 07 Aug 00 - 10:04 PM It worked sorta (bra__ is definitely a different color than bre__), but I forgot the stupid <'s again... |
|
Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: Mary in Kentucky Date: 07 Aug 00 - 10:52 PM This is what color Mary is. |
|
Subject: RE: HTML Practice From: Mary in Kentucky Date: 07 Aug 00 - 10:58 PM Acutally, it's Mary. |
