The HTML Thread

“Hey, it worked. Thanks for the source code tekapo!

the first try use an image on webshots, the second one on my web server.”

“Need to do something abut the vertical alignment..... in relationship to text”

“I wonder if this works as a signature link.








”

“



wrong link.



”

“Well, that's interesting...”

“Here's a question. When I use a webshots image source, I don't see it, I just see the image icon. If I look in properties and open it, using the same browser session, then back up into TT, the image is in the thread. If I refresh the view I lose the image again.

What is going on? Any clues?”

“voo-doo”

“gawd im still a looser!
still cant spell or post a link”

“yup I still suck!!!”

“OHH MYY
I did it!!!!!


i am no longer a looser!!!”

“Pathman, perhaps this is the "bad thing" Deathmarch predicted if anyone responded to his thread? Blame Phaedrus”

“nope, can't be phaedrus' fault. I happened yesterday. unless, its the black hole thing and a violation of the time space continuum.”

“pathman,
i can now post my own threads!!!

its a dawn of a new day!!”

“Pathman -

I don't know what the geek term is for it, but many sites that host images for free block you from linking directly to an image to cut down on bandwidth usage. When you open the image in another browser, it becomes visible on the page from where you linked to it. Refreshing with the second browser closed takes you back to square one. I have no clue how they do it.”

“thanks violin, I suspected something like that.”

“Here's a question...

Anyone know how to execute a local F11 function key command upon an HTML page load?

Hit F11 on your keyboard now to see what I mean.

What's the code for that? How do I build it in to my HTML page and then reverse F11 upon exit?”

“why does it so Page not found?
what am I doing wrong?


John Muir”

“You have to put the http:// thing first.”

“And typing the URL right would help too...”

“Here's what you want to use:

<a href="http://www.sierraclub.org/john_muir_exhibit/">John Muir</a>”

“yup im back to being a loser. I had one day of fame!!!”

“Success!”

“Thank you Bit, Im not sure what im doing wrong but ill get it right someday. i just used your link. I hope you don't mind!!”

“In all cases, your URL was incorrect. The URL (the part in quotes) must be complete.

For example:

href="www.sierraclub.org/john_muir_exhibit/"

is wrong, because it is not prepended with "http://"

to be correct, it should be this:

href="http://www.sierraclub.org/john_muir_exhibit"

in a couple of the cases, you also had "wwwsierraclub.org/john_muir_exhibit/" for the URL. Typos can cause problems too.”

“well, the <center> thing worked, anyway.”

“what is that?”

“they were supposed to be arrows!”

“the one I can't find is opening a link in a new window.”

“

I might be getting sick.
I have to get up at 0500
I'm falling asleep
Everybody but Tilt has gone

This is supposed to be a bulleted list”

“Ohhhh... I know that one:

<A HREF="the actual link" TARGET="_blank">what you want to call it</A>

And I just happened to have it ready to paste in at the drop of a hat, <G>.”

“Photo that IS a link (to a page in a new browser window):

<A HREF="the link" TARGET="_blank"><IMG SRC="the link to the image"></A>”

“with different dimensions

<A HREF="the link" TARGET="_blank"><IMG SRC="The link to the image" WIDTH="999" HEIGHT="999"></A>”

“←

“You wanted arrows, Tilt?”
