Haven't you got a free web site with your ISP?

[Cheesebury]

Yeah but I'm at work at the moment

[VELVET]

Haven't you got a browser and notepad???

[Scarab]

Do it in a notepad .txt file then rename it to .htm and open in IE or whatever. When ya have both open and make any changes save the file in notepad and press F5 in IE. try </marquee> or whatever it is

[Scarab]

ooo beat me by 1min

[Cheesebury]

Well yeah, I'm playing with that at the moment but I wanted to show ppl and have the novelty of having something I wrote on the web, I have never tried anything like this, I'm a "oooo, no those are just random letters and characters, give me a box to click" person

[VELVET]

Use the general abuse forum on my WirePlay Tribes League message boards - I've turned the html on just for you http://www.wireplay.co.uk/ubb/biggrin.gif

[VELVET]

If you could keep it to one thread though please http://www.wireplay.co.uk/ubb/teeth.gif

[Cheesebury]

aww, thanks I'm touched http://www.wireplay.co.uk/ubb/smile.gif

[Scarab]

Yeah me to, typing straight into HTML removes that oooh summink could go wrong, then Ill have to fix it, enjoyment.

There's some really good tutorials on the web, just search in yahoo or whatever. I gave up after a while though. Its no good knowing how to right a web page when you've no idea what to put in it.

[Cheesebury]

errrm, I'm afraid that I can't even get to www.funkateers.co.uk http://www.wireplay.co.uk/ubb/cry.gif

You can't get there???

How long does it take for your Uni to update its domain listings??? I've had that for nearly 2 months now - thought it would have made its way everywhere...

Gonna try and think of a way round it - brb http://www.wireplay.co.uk/ubb/smile.gif

[Cheesebury]

I've got to it before several times, it just decided not to work http://www.wireplay.co.uk/ubb/cry.gif

[VELVET]

Heh - and I've just gone to find that you could use: http://209.150.130.108/cgi-bin/tribes/Ultimate.cgi ...

Might be worth a go m8 - dunno whats up with it otherwise as its working for me...

Cheers

As us Jedis are big boys now, our good ol' Jedi Master has enabled the IMG tag, so we can post away our immages to our hearts content, when all you are stuck with your quotes and bold letters. http://www.wireplay.co.uk/ubb/tongue.gif http://www.wireplay.co.uk/ubb/tongue.gif http://www.wireplay.co.uk/ubb/tongue.gif

[Cheesebury]

Anyway my first HTML introduction has now run out http://www.wireplay.co.uk/ubb/frown.gif, and my html book is at home http://www.wireplay.co.uk/ubb/frown.gif, I've stopped at simple tables.

I want to know how to change the colour of individual bits of text, anyone?

[Cheesebury]

cool, know that now, don't worry

[Cheesebury]

OK, new question, look at this in a browser:

OK my question is how do I get the o's that run down the left hand side to all go on one line, I tried pre as you saw but it didn't work, what do I do?

[Cheesebury]

Well shock I've just worked that out now http://www.wireplay.co.uk/ubb/smile.gif

I'll stop doing this now until I find a real problem http://www.wireplay.co.uk/ubb/smile.gif

[Cheesebury]

It's true as well they have got img, whats that all about?

[mrfixter]

Good idea

btw: does anyone know where there are any good cgi/perl tutorials???

cheers

[VELVET]

Argh - I used to know a great perl tutorial to get you started - but I've no idea what I did with the link http://www.wireplay.co.uk/ubb/frown.gif

However there is a great reference guide at: http://reference.perl.com/guides/perl5.html which if you know anything about programming to start with could be useful...

Cheers

[Cheesebury]

oooo, I'm playing with CSS now, am I getting ahed of myself?

[VELVET]

Yep http://www.wireplay.co.uk/ubb/shades.gif

[Cheesebury]

oops http://www.wireplay.co.uk/ubb/smile.gif
but it's no where near as hard as I thought, even though I just spent half an hour trying to work out why it had suddenly broken and lost all these settings only to find out I'd deleted a bracket by accident http://www.wireplay.co.uk/ubb/teeth.gif

[Konador]

This is the oldest post in this forum and I am bringing it back. Doesn't everyone look young. { velvet }'s old name, VELVET,

Those were the days :)

[Grace]

Those were the days? Uh.. were you even there?

[Konador]

Yes. I have had so many user names I cant even remember what they were :)

Then I got bored with these forums and now I'm getting into them again. After changing my name :)
