Hi and welcome to h2g2! Sorry for the very late welcome - I hope you still accept it smiley - smiley. I hope you enjoy your time here!
I see you've written an introduction and chosen a nickname - a great start. If there's anything else you need, don't hesitate to ask me, or any of the other ACEs at http://www.h2g2.com/A214796 . Be sure to check out the main page. You can always get there by clicking that lovely logo in the goo (top-left of your screen). Looking forward to know more about you in that intro smiley - winkeye.

Remember, feel free to ask any questions,

Mr.Cynic

Howdy and thanks for the welcome.

Question: I came across some instructions on how to set up a link on my home page to see who is currently online. I made a feeble attempt to follow the instructions and was unsuccessful. Being totally unfamiliar with HTML (never mind GuideML) I am not surprised. Any thoughts or advice on how to proceed would be appreciated. Thanks and Have a Good One.

Yes, I could give the the code for doing it. It might be a bit messy here. If so it's best I send it over via ICQ or e-mail. You will have to tell your homepage to be in GuideML. To do this, before editing, choose the 'GuideML' radio button and click the 'Change Type' button. Here's the code:




<!--
function popusers(link) {
popupWin = window.open(link, 'popusers', 'status=1,resizable=1,scrollbars=1,width=165,height=340');
}
// -->

text here blah blah blah blah. To start a new line type
ok?
This will be the link to the Who's Online window so replace it with your text
more text here blah blah blah. Here, another
Remember to replace all this text with your intro. Ok, now to end it:

Actually I just thought I was being humourous. (as is funny - not the bone , Or is that the funny bone?) I would have to take myself seriously to be offended that easily.

Have a good one.
