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

Hi

The problem on your page is the smileys - in GuideML the syntax is, for example, <SMILEY TYPE="biggrin"/>

Also, you should put at the beginning of all the paragraphs and at the end.

The updated code is:


So that is it.

Can you see my worm wiggeling? Yeah! Have some imagination. Cut and paste. Voila! Any suggestion???

I am gecko, not an idiot, but my computer is just more advenced. Sorry, I did not do it. I need to go back to the future I guess. About 10 years. OK. tell me what to do, because it is your idea. Thanks. <SMILEY TYPE="love"/> from : gecko and many more <SMILEY TYPE="love"/> <SMILEY TYPE="love"/> <SMILEY TYPE="love"/>

P.S. pls tell me what would you say to Picasso if he would want to hang around Clipart, etc.??? Fortunately for him ( Picasso that is) he did not like to talk, he does not need to learn GML. ( Lucky he).

P.S. II. I know better than him. Thanks for your help. <SMILEY TYPE="biggrin"/> <SMILEY TYPE="love"/> with my lizardous <SMILEY TYPE="cool"/> 42 x <SMILEY TYPE="kiss"/>


I hope that helps
RhoMuNuQ

Yes of course, it would help, but I eraised the whole thing. ( Edited and is gone) however Don't worry: I'll go back to your kind help, I will learn, and really very greatful to you. I also want to see your HOME-SWEET-HOME-PAGE. gecko

I'm glad I could help - let me know if there are any more problems!

RhoMuNuQ

To my dear HELP=Rho: I tried everything,-- I put Ps everywhere and did what was told to me to do. Did not work.

As the midnight clock turned the calendar to the next day--- I gave up and said: I don't care even if the humans call me an idiot: I passed the state of my computer programming with the gyration such as HTML to modified GML.

I have absolutely no intention to create a Web page with few words in my gecko language to present the secrets@ how to climb walls swiftly and efficiently up to the ceiling where I get a comfortable position to look down on primitive humans while they are fevereshly trying to find the meaning of their lifes on the Lap of Mother Earth. ( he-he-he = </P&gt

Even if there would be protection of International Law of Copyright: I as Gecko do not find these human inventions satisfactory to protect my lizardous creations made with lizardous technology-- naturally.

I have to write--- I thought with my little lizard brain---- some biography about Gecko & Co. before evolution will sweep away this kind of existence.

FAQ to my dear Friend(s) plse tell me why would I Gecko need the trouble of GML??? ( when the Prince in the Land of Microsoft Windows ALL worked out for me)???? Yeah: may be when "SNAIL MAIL" gets to primitive humans they will know more about lizardous HI tech.
(I'll tell my turtle neighbor to get that stuff into the mail)

For now: Aloha with the mellow breeze of Hawaii:--^$ ##^^^<?***>///P/****$$$
enter with peace to the next--- what ever is coming. Gecko and

I'm sorry it didn't work, but I'll post this for when you next want to convert your Personal Space to GuideML.

First click "Edit Page" as usual then scroll down to where it says "Plain Text" or "GuideML". Select "GuideML" then click "Change Style". An error message will be displayed and will be added to the beginning of the article; to the end of the article.

After this, put at the start of all paragraphs and at the end of all paragraphs. So, one paragraph would be: This is a paragraph.

After this, change all the smileys from the form < biggrin > to the form <SMILEY TYPE="biggrin"/>.

Once you've done this, your personal space should be displayed in GuideML!

Later, you can add other things like pictures and changing font colours to your personal space but you can only do this using GuideML, not Plain Text.

RhoMuNuQ

Hi there Rho: this is very unusual for me to get to my ctr. early morning. You are so kind that with my lizardous curiosity I really plan to look into the fact what makes you to be an usual human???? I found your insisting advise and step by step instruction for ****--*** Gml... I just printed your message---like the previous onces also --- to follow when I will have an other shot to go back to the future.
I would be much more interested for witty, amusing conversations chatting away the time, than minding GML!!!

Actually I ran up to my ctr. this morning to reach John-The-Gardener and also JimX to tell them that the GREACKELS arrived, and shortly after the Red Wing shoved up at the feeder. You can not imagene what this means for a cold blooded reptile after a brutal winter in NYC area. !!!

Than I found Rho's msg, I saved it on my printer and-------

Now I sent the msg. to my Nature loving friends

Sorry I have to go to do very boring earthy things. I'll return at night when the primitive humans go to sleep EST. G

P.S. The exact syntex ( formula) is set for tonight to do your intr.--- The only thing bothers me: Why the ERROR MSG. COMES UP???? that is what chases a Gecko away!

Tolulu! have to go. Sia later.G.

Hi

I'm afraid I can't stop the error message coming up but don't be put off by it!

RhoMuNuQ

OK. Let's see as I follows:
Step 1. At My Space--- go to Edit Page ( see it on right side) click
Step 2. Scroll down: Plain text, Guide ML, change style: click Gml and change style
Step 3.ERROR MSG WILL DISPLAY ON TOP !!!! i will ignore it.
Step 4.


Step 5. Write article: Testing GML. <SMILEY TYPE="biggrin"/>
Step 6. Closing :


Going back to article at every paragraph put: at end of prg.
Same with smileys: change to GuideML format.

This is Gecko's tutorial Wed. March 19, 03 Thanks to Rho's instructions. from Gecko .
Next posting to execute the tutorial. G.

That's it exactly!

If you do all that, it should work!

RhoMuNuQ

It did work! Hooray!

RhoMuNuQ

Yeah! Halelluya!!! Gee it is great to "sweat" out something " new": like : to write a Guide for going out of this World.( To Which one? There are many!)

Away from the computer I worked a lot: painting. Writing other entries. E-mails and fixing the " hang up" with my computer. ( That is really bad, but have a wonderful support from my internet server.)

Tomorrow is an other Day: hopefully for more work. Spring is here and I have a nice Garden to take care. gecko

P.S. Rho? what do you do in these days???? Beside being a very helpful GURU, what else do you do??? Not nosy: just having a lizardous curiosity, which brought me to h2g2.

Now I'll go to sleep like the primive humans. he-he-he ( that is gecko saying: see you later alligator.)

Typing error: primitive humans. Sorry. G.

I also do ACEing, Scouting and Subbing

RhoMuNuQ

Hi Rho: MY GOOD help: Now I am serious, because there will be an
Aknowledgment with ALL the h2g2 people who helped me! I think the most help and encouragement I got from the GURU status.
I am returning now to work on my Introduction. I will have some questions: the format of POEM is not clear. ??? Gecko

The true problem is: when I talk--- you people ( over the pond) sleep and visa/versa.
Than when I get back to my PC about 16 hrs later, my lizard memory is filled up with the primitive humans disorganized meaningless demands. Therefore my progress is very slow going to the chosen Galaxy in total contradiction to my lizardous lifestyle.

I am stuck again with Gecko's ML,--- because in a split of a sec the entire story is here: In metric order, in colors with pictures: Yeah! he-he-he: clicking the tail of my mammal mouse and up there of the tremendouse choice from my tool bar:::))) that is the way a Lizard( Wizzard) works -- here. And:::That is the finale of today. Good Night for me, Good Morning for you. I need a <SMILEY TYPE="lizard"/> ???? for my logo!!!
until than: truly yours: Gecko. Wishing you a nice Day.<SMILEY TYPE="sun"/>

I'm afraid that there aren't or smileys just now. The full list of current smileys is on the <./>Smileys</.> page.

RhoMuNuQ

Don't be afraid Rho: I know what is there and what is not there. The next step: to make useful SMILEYS like a ( for a Have nice Day wish) and a ( for gecko= me) and a
( for Monthy)= an other cold blooded animal. How about a = (for tech. advencement??)

Our Galaxy is changing all the time = EXPENDING. I thought that I am in tune with my environment. All my notions are for the Advencement of Art and Science and h2g2 = for the benefit of primitive humans. Do you think I am mentally retarded???<

The lizardous point of view not /= with that of the human's who are believed to be on a much higher level to be able to see "things".
he-he-he than tell those "believers" to climb a man made wall with my lizardous speed!!! he-he-he G ::: gecko
P.S. Rho: I warn you: your sense of humour is being tested!<>

It is? I hadn't guessed...

I'm afraid that, unfortunately, we can't request new smileys just now as the ideas list is closed. Hopefully we'll be able to soon!

RhoMuNuQ

Fine.OK. As you see I am working on this totally "neurotic" Gml,---every day.

Promise: when I find out all the gyrations one has to go through to "express oneself" at the Forum Romanum of h2g2 (after the fullfiment of my curiosity):::::://///////
there will be a deal OFFERED BY ME: eighter I quit, or will negotiating about $$$$$$ to get ( yeah, some times it can be found on the branches of trees)
for the advencement of h2g2 tech. (no smiley available at this time.)
Gecko. ( formerly Jung Wing )

This is the 20 th conversation between you and me = Rho vs. Gecko and perhaps the cachet is full and the page has to be turned. (????)
OR YOU CAN UNSUBSCRIBE if ( sorry ) you tired ( gecko is not finished with Gecko's ML yet, but it will be there before the war ends
