Hi kow

I'm Ok

a bit busy, but thats life

Hi liz

the more you are on here the more mistakes you will make,,,,and the more you will learn to ignor them ( Well i do anyway )

manda

im sort of getting the hang of thingsthere's lots of things to learn & there's lots of helpful & some what patient people on here to help me manda. god knows they have to be, with mearound.

As it said in Post#1, a well needed space, & useful too, especially the search link a few posts back, I wondered where it'd gone under all this plain skin So thanks for rescuing me from the infinite regress of searching for a search link!
Also this seems a good place to post the solution to the "digibox cookie" problem... ...WHEN I find what that solution is! (no doubt newer viewers who don't know what I'm on about are waiting for a tv-style update like when Kiefer Sutherland says "Previously on 24.." but you'll be waiting a long time
But while I'm here, may as well ask Loup; in the other thread-thingy you said you set up seperate accounts, did you click the "remember me" box in more than one of these accounts? I wondered if this would "overwrite" the cache memory (whooo, technical term!) or whether it'd just worsen things with more confusion?

Is there an echo in here?
Sorreee!

the answer is : nope, i don't click on the "remember me" thingy... not for my own account and not for when i go into the LDers one... i don't think i would dare doing that...

talk soon...

loup

Please tell me how do you to put a page to a next posting?

JA

Please tell me how do you cut and paste from the internet?

JA

Hi JA

I didn't understand your first question.

With your second question you have to have the software capable of doing it as well as knowing the right shortcut key-presses or menu options. This varies across computers (ie I would need to know the operating system and browser) and might not be possible at all on a digibox - though someone else should answer that one.

Hi jedi

you cannot cut and past useing your digibox,,that is why you have to manuly copy and then write all the codes

or was you thinking of doing it on a PC ( at a cafe for instance )

manda

Yes Manda and SEF I was thinking about using it on the computer at the library cutting and pasting as I cannot access my email and that is why I am here at the library. I have never cutted and pasted from the internet but I have done it on various types of computer packages ie word processing, data base, desk top publishing and spreadsheets.

SEF when I am going to the next page:
example your on page 28 but you would like to put the next posting on page 38 please tell me who would you do it?

My mouse control is not very good.

Katrine

Hi jedi

if you put the mouse at the start of the text that you want to copy,press and "HOLD DOWN" the left mouse button,then run it along the text, and then release the button,,that will have hi-lighted it,

then press the "ctrl" and the "C" button at the same time that will put the text into your PC ,

then left click the mouse where you want the text to go and then press the "ctrl" and the "V" buttons at the same time and that will put the text there,

give me a shout if you have any problems

manda

Thanks Manda. I am going to use the information when I come back next as I have an entry to put in called Go placidly my child.

I am rewriting it and the text is so bad it is taken me along time to write.

JA

Forgive me for being a pain (& I know I am ) but I was so pleased at managing to "do" those links (childish, I know) that I quite fancied another one, particularly one that takes you back to the BBCi homepage as that toolbar thing is another thing lost in plain skin & it takes many a click to currently get there. Is such a link possible in plain text or do I have to drown in a sea of GuideML, or whatever its called?

Assuming I've understood which page you want, the link is http://www.bbc.co.uk/ - which is automatically created from plain text in a conversation posting without any extra tags. This should therefore work in an article page too, but if it doesn't then add <. /> and </ .> tags around it (without the spaces of course).
