h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

hiya!! soz its me again!!can u plz tell mw where n how do i put a won me page ....thanx

I'm sorry but I'm going to need a translation for that question first. Is there a word missing or something because I don't know what "a won me page" is. I can't believe you meant "a w on my page" since you can already type letters on your page.

hiya me again i found the tag put it in me page but when i click on it it doesnt work...also my whos on line on the left side of the screen dont work either ..ys this??

lol...soz typing 2 fast n didnt look b4 i sent msg it was can u tell me the right way 2 do the whos online tag??thanx

click here is correct, but, as it pops up a new window, it might not work if you're using a digibox.

Instead, you could use click here, which won't open a new window.

hiya rom u come 2 my rescue again thanx alot hunni

I had a look at your page after I got the previous message, so I finally realised what you were talking about.

What you have at the moment is:

you canclick hereto see who's online.

This generates essentially the same code as the link on the left of the screen (in brunel skin). However in both cases it asks for a popup window. If you are using a digibox you can't have popup windows. You can try this link <./>online</.> in plain text which in GuideML would be:

click here

but you then need to click on one of the names to get back to the rest of h2g2. Note that you should put space between the rest of your text and this link on either side or it looks odd.

I'm so slow! Partly because I tested it first.

'Tested'?

At least the simulposts agreed with each other exactly!

hiya!!soz im slow u mean i just put that code in but it never worked just gonna check it now brbxx

hooray !!!get the another successful tag soz im just getting excited c what u mean about it looking odd tho think ill haV 2 write sum text next 2 it 2 say what u click there 4!!! peeps

Well done.

If you want to get really adventurous you can put a link behind a blob image so that you click on the image to go to the page. There's a rather appropriate one of someone attached to their computer online by a drip feed. You can also add a title explaining what the link is for though.

hhhhmmmm could b fun how would i start that 1 ???remember not 2 complicated im only a learner!!hehehehe cum on im ready n waiting..wink wink.lol

That will show a picture of the drip-feed computer person as the link to the online page. See how it is just like the previous version of the link but with a picture instead of text. The ALT text is just for people to hover over or the visually impaired with special equipment. You don't have to have it. If you get on OK with that you can try adding a caption into the PICTURE tag by using the opening and closing form instead of the self-closing one.

ok hunni ill just go n change it thanx ill brbxx

Is someone still doing that GuideML-tutorial-project-thing? If so we should tell them about these threads, there are a lot of very good lessons in here, usually this kind of stuff is spread out, but the whole GML spec is explained in 2 or 3 threads here...

I must finish off that project.

You're right about these threads - I think virtually all of the most used GuideML's convered in just a few postings.

Rho, you really haven't been keeping up with the Yahoo group(s) have you. I tried to remind you about the GuideML project ages ago. I also asked a question about the front page project.
