YAY, IT WORKS. Warm glow of satisfaction cos that's the first link I've posted that actually works. I've been using the formula for a while to get into long conversations but only from the entry page.

Anyway, hope it helps.

You have to bite the bullet and type it by hand smiley - sadface Don't fret, it was how I learnt to code - Having to hand-write and then type it smiley - smileysmiley - erm

Basically all you need is the Blob number* of the image, and then remember this coding:





The The extra bracket is just there to be all neat and tidy and make the computer thingy know what to do and where the code is going smiley - smiley


After this, you can put a caption, which will appear underneath it.

Followed by the



thingy..
all this does is close it (remember the slash as being slightly "closed" - When a tag is closed it is DONE AWAY WITH FOREVER! smiley - smiley and the computer or tv knows that it can move on with showing the rest of the page smiley - smiley

so thats..

1.

smiley - smiley

4. Your own text for a caption smiley - smiley

5. smiley - smiley

which looks like:


this is a picture of a duckie
smiley - oksmiley - smiley

You can pick up lots of pictures from the Picture gallery which I think is at C809smiley - smiley If you remember that code I just taught you, all you need to note down from the text box my the side of the piccie you want is the "BLOB-NUMBER" which looks like this: B123456 smiley - smiley

I hope this has helped you smiley - smiley

If it hasn't, tell me - I tend to confuzzle *myself* sometimes! smiley - erm

Who's Marion?(looks over shoulder for Marion)

I have the 'upgrade' all ready, if you can call it that...at least the volume button works nowsmiley - smiley

I know how to write links, but it's a bit of a hassle if you want a decent surf, especially with Telewest's track record for booting and crashing.smiley - headhurts

I wondered if all the bright researchers on h2g2,
especially the ones who have used Telewest, knew of any solutions to make our misery lessensmiley - smiley

I don't sound too desperate do I<?>

I am using the telewest Di2000t set top box to access h2g2 through email....is it possible to actually surf the net with this set up...i noticed that there is an ethernet connection on the box could you explain this to me....if there is any 'cracking' way of getting free web access i'd love to hear it.

My email add is [email protected] if you
want to send direct...Cheers
