SIMPLE guide to,guideml,for new researchers

1 Conversation

start with <guide>-<body> in capitals top of page. </body></guide>bottom of the page also in capitals.
you want to add the "TEXT" which needs these <P> at the beginning of the "TEXT" and ending with</P>

IE,
<P>Hi im a newbie here</P>

you must ALWAYS write the sentence all in one,when you get to the end of a line,use space bar, and continue.

You will find the links to the "PICTURES" you can use,these will have a B NUMBER, each B number will give you a PICTURE.

This is the code i use with two variations.

<PICTURE EMBED= 'FREE'
BLOB='B1234567'/>
This gives you the original size.

The FREE can be LEFT,RIGHT OR CENTER.

<PICTURE EMBED='FREE'
HEIGHT='100' WIDTH='100'
BLOB='B1234567'/>

By adding HIEGHT and WIDTH, you can make the picture larger or smaller, the 100 is just a guideline, i have some at 300.

when adding a link.the most common one is

<LINK>----ending----</LINK>

There is a shorter version you can use with A numbers an such.
=====
Here are some you can use
=====
<LINK H2G2='search'>search h2g2</LINK>

<LINK H2G2='A1344575'>PICTURES PAGE</LINK>

<LINK H2G2='A155909'>SMILEYS PAGE</LINK>

<LINK H2G2='test63217514'>click this to see the badge code</LINK>

Any "A GUIDE BADGE IS JUST TESTER" can be used.

I will not be setting this guide page to, "GUIDEML",or whats on here wont show on the page

When you have the "TEXT".and "LINKS", of what you want, then you need to end at the bottom of the edit
============
You are better to update the edit page as "ALABASTER TEXT",(later you can change to ("plain text") (or the one you want)then check the page to make sure it looks right, then if you are happy with the layout

Edit the page again, and look at the "BOTTOM" for the "CHANGE TO GUIDEML",from "PLAIN",(TICK CIRCLE) then "CHANGE STYLE" and "PREVIEW"..

If you have made an "ERROR" it will show you where and what you have or havent done. "CORRECT", and try the "PREVIEW" again
=
If this time the page comes up as the page you want, then and only then "UPDATE ENTRY".
===

This will give anyone the basic, how to start with "GUIDEML", then you have a blueprint to experiment as you go along, and get better.( now wasnt that simple and easy.
======
If you want to get more inventive, then cantact the ace, that aced you, they will direct you to guides or people that can help with the more complicated things.
