Hi Slarty Web!

I would check out your articles (we usually call them Entries here) if you'd written any. I see you've been having problems with GuideML. I suspect you've been doing something like this:



This is my Entry, please read it.



This Entry is about birds. I love birds... blah blah... smiley - smiley



In HTML, you can use to create space between paragraphs. However, that's actually not the correct usage. You should actually enclose every block of text in tags like this:




This is my Entry, please read it.



This Entry is about birds. I love birds... blah blah... smiley - smiley




That should fix the error you've been getting. If you have any more problems, just ask me or check out this page:

You should really check out the rest of h2g2 as well. For example, the Smiley page is a lot of fun. Read it and learn how to do these funky things: smiley - rocket, smiley - angel, smiley - artist, , smiley - tongueout, et cetera!!

I see. smiley - smiley Did you learn GuideML and then forget it (like a lot of people seemed to do during Rupert) or did they shut down the site before you even had a chance?
