16 Apr 00 - 11:06 PM (#212908) Subject: RE: BS: More HTML Practise From: GUEST, George Why don't the wierd fonts work? |
17 Apr 00 - 05:12 AM (#212999) Subject: RE: BS: More HTML Practise From: Joe Offer Hi, George - I think the fonts have to be loaded onto your computer before they'll work. I'm not exactly sure how that works, but it's something like that. -Joe Offer- |
17 Apr 00 - 10:37 PM (#213427) Subject: RE: BS: More HTML Practise From: GUEST, George Thanks Joe. I have all the fonts above installed here. I have been using Thosp's format (I copied one of his sigs - sorry/thanks Thosp) and added the fonts of my choice. I noticed that you put the "" into the equation (and I know the pros and cons of this practise) I have included a font which is 'one word', trying to see whether the 'space' between the two words of the font bears some relevance as to my failure to post them correctly Testing Testing Testing George |
17 Apr 00 - 10:51 PM (#213433) Subject: RE: BS: More HTML Practise From: GUEST, George Well, that sort of worked! I'll try a few more The Complete Works of William Shakespeare George. |
17 Apr 00 - 11:09 PM (#213442) Subject: RE: BS: More HTML Practise From: thosp no problem George -- your welcome -- actually i'm still a rookie with this HTML stuff-- pretty much everything i know i got from or was pointed towards by Joe Offer and Mudguard (thanks again fellas) |

17 Apr 00 - 11:27 PM (#213450) Subject: RE: BS: More HTML Practise From: Jon Freeman The only thing with fonts, least as far as I understand it is when using the fancy ones, other people need to have them to see/ appreciate it. Perhaps Mudguard can confirm/ explain this. Jon |

19 Apr 00 - 08:59 AM (#214246) Subject: RE: BS: More HTML Practise From: Walter Corey Since I'veneverbeen able to make the bk thing work, I'll try this here before posting to thread. THE GOONEY BIRD - Oscar Brand
In '51 they tried to ground the noble D.C.3
They patch her up with masking tape,
The army toasts their sky train now in lousy scotch & soda
Douglas built this ship to last but nobody expected
No matter what they do to her, the Gooney Bird still flies
She had her faults but after all who's perfect in this sphere
Well now she flies the feeder routes & carries mail & freight

19 Apr 00 - 09:01 AM (#214248) Subject: RE: BS: More HTML Practise From: Walter Corey Some of the bk things worked - the double breaks between verses, but the single bks just seem to vanish. What is the secret? |
19 Apr 00 - 09:04 AM (#214250) Subject: RE: BS: More HTML Practise From: MMario Walter - look in the MudCat FAQ thread (I just refreshed it) there is a very lucid explanation there.... |
19 Apr 00 - 02:07 PM (#214405) Subject: RE: BS: More HTML Practise From: GUEST MMario, I checked out the thread you refreshed & it doesn't seem to help. I did put in the break thingies, and they just don't seem to work (except for the double break). I went back and looked at the song I posted above with the page source command and the breaks all seem to be there, but they don't do any good. The lines all run together.I know I'm doing something monumentally stupid, but can't figure out what. |

19 Apr 00 - 07:43 PM (#214637) Subject: RE: BS: More HTML Practise From: Walter Corey How embarrassing. I knew I was doing something monumentally stupid. Let me try that song again with the right coding.

21 Apr 00 - 12:34 AM (#215419) Subject: RE: BS: More HTML Practise From: Amos Well that was hosed, sorry -- I haven't mastered the literals yet. I stole the one above from the kind offices of Joe Offer. And the second reason is that the link's path to a cgi script produces and error. This is probably because the call to the script is somehow missing a piece, or something like that. |

21 Apr 00 - 01:35 AM (#215453) Subject: RE: BS: More HTML Practise From: GUEST, Threadie Make a copy of your HTML codes in Notepad or something, and if you ever forget them, open your HTML.txt or whatever you call it and re acquaint yourself with them. Alternatively, save a few of the HTML threads or make them available off line. All that you see here has been battered out somewhere else. Threadie, trying not to be humorous, as I've been told I'm not very funny Maybe I could start a thread..... The Thread Watcher |
21 Apr 00 - 01:51 AM (#215462) Subject: RE: BS: More HTML Practise From: Little Neophyte Thanks Threadie I will do that, make a copy of the HTML codes for 'blue clicky' and place it near my computer. You know what was really helpful at the end? Going back to the Mudcat FAQ -Newcomer's Guide. Joe Offer really put that 'Blue Clicky Thing' in easy to follow instructions. But I was having a real hard time in the beginning because it all felt confusing. After a few failed attempts, I went back again and could finally read Joe's instructions better. I think you have a sense of humor Threadie One thing I know is that I do appreciate your help Bonnie |

10 May 00 - 09:53 AM (#225764) Subject: RE: BS: More HTML Practise From: MudGuard Giac, I do not want to disappoint you but ... it wasn't the quotes that stopped your blue clicky thingy from working. In your first attempt you wrote <a href:"http://www… with other words you replaced the correct equal sign = with an incorrect colon. When you removed the quotes, you also corrected the = which made it work, not the removing of the quotes! HTH, MudGuard |
