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

Good morning JA - and manda!

Word had codes like that and worse. It's just that they were hidden from you. Some people with computers also have a program to write HTML (on which Guide-ML is based) by just pressing a few buttons. Unfortunately you probably don't have access to such a program and would have to type it all in yourself afterwards anyway. You are right that it's an alien language but not that it was created to confuse people.

All the bits are short for what they do TR stands for Table Row, TH stands for Table Header (a cell with a title in), TD stands for Table Data (a cell with normal text in). Try drawing out a table on paper and seeing for yourself that you would need to tell a computer to start a new line (TR) or put some text in bold (TH) or that all of some stuff fits in a single box (TD).

Please SEF or Manda will you please tell me the Fonts that I can use on GuideMl.

Please also tell me how to change the size of the font and what does it mean by 2+ etc and how big can it go up to.


Please tell me the codes to do this with.

Thank you

JA

Thank you SEF for the information given to me.

JA

Hi Jedi

to change the font size just write

then write your text here

have a go at that and see what happens

Here I am typing along when suddenly I'm 2 points bigger than I was before and now I'm back to normal again.

Simulpost, except I did mine like a thought-experiment as with riding on the back of a photon.

Thank you Manda

JA

Manda or SEF in my entry Test page 2 the codes for table are not recognised and all I get is error in GuideML. I copied them correctly as shown on the screen.

I end in the gave up as I was not getting anywhere with it.

I wonder if there is a limit to how much GuideML codes I can put on one page?

Please help me as I would like to get the codes to work.

Thank you

Katrine

mornig SEF

Hi jedi

there has to be a gap between the "7" COLOR

and the "14" COLOR

you have put two times

you have to put another at the end

All the codes that we give you work,,,,,,if you are getting a error message then it is cos you have copyed them down wrong

manda

Thank you Manda

then you can put what you want to in here and it will go in the box
