Hmmm... the birthday pages only contain RL birthdays - but it would be interesting to have h2g2 anniversary pages as well. All we need is to find someone willing to make the pages and keep them updated!smiley - smiley

I could try doing that! It wouldn't be as good as the real birthday pages, but it would be alright.

I see from your user page that you're familiar with GuideML - does that include the use of tables? Because that's basically what the birthday pages are - tables (easy for me to say, I didn't create them, I've just taken over the management for the time being)

Well, I do know a bit about guide ML, but I don't know how you get tables!

I tried using a table and it worked! Well I suppose that's because it's a very simple table.smiley - erm

But it's a start!

I pressed the "Post Message" Button before I realized that I had meant to find a smiley. I tried to press stop, but it didn't work. Should've pressed "Preview".

Well done!

A tip - of you have several identical rows with cells, copy & paste one row to make more, preferrably before you've filled in any information...
