TRiG (Ireland) A dog, so bade in office

I forget how I got onto this page. I certainly have no interest whatsoever in it's subject matter! But I've been posting in <./>Feedback-Editorial</.> so much recently that correcting errors has become a habit.

Right, the page says:

"Choose your Sun sign from the discussion list and leave a message.
This entry must be viewed in classic goo. Click on the smilie below to see this page in the colour that the late DNA used for the original h2g2 site."

Well, apart from the fact that that should be /smiley/, not /smilie/, the link is wrong. smiley - smiley

It is
<SMILEY TYPE="ok"/>

It should be <SMILEY TYPE="ok"/>


You direct to a user page (a personal space): U197895?skin=classic

You should direct to this page itself: A712595?skin=classic

You use an absolute link (starting http:/) and the HREF atribute, which causes the link to show up in "Related BBC pages" in the sidebar.

You should use only the last bit of the link (after the final slash) and the H2G2 attribute, which would cause links to appear in the corect section of the sidebar.

I actually think this is one of the few places on hootoo that does look better in a specific skin (in this case, Goo).

There are several other LINK HREFs on the page which could be converted to LINK H2G2s.

TRiG.smiley - ok
