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

Could you by any chance email me the code for the table?!? I came up with my most brilliant idea of using an editor for once because I couldn't be bothered to code it myself, and then I realised afterwards that Word doesn't used GML and I couldn't be bothered to recode it.

Help? Pweeeeeeathe!!

*butter-wouldn't-melt smile*

Well, all you have to do is make sure all the tags are closed, all the attributes have ""s (ie , NOT ) and the like. It's really very easy. And it took me 45 minutes to error-check that table like that. :-p

If you want it, though, I'm sure I could lend it you.... for a small insult.. (note: If you've never watched "The Mikado", then please insert the word "fee" in place of insult. Thankyou!)

The problem with my table is not just that, but also that it includes all its own font & body tags that would basically just muck up the rest of my page

Do tell me about this insult then.. No I haven't seen The Mikado.

oh... there's a noble person who requests "insults" do do people favours (he's every minister in the country, so he fiddles taxes and forges evidence and things)... insults being money...

No fair You said I could copy your page

oh, all right then. Here it is...












Funky people





Name


Description


Ming


Pioneer of the "Small corner" approach to the philosophy of the world, and a future visitor to CERN, Ming is the first addition to the list. Ming is also a strong advocate for the introduction of capital punishment for bubble-wrap theft.

Krans


Mr. Hopeson is one of Njan's friends in the real world as it were. (No, Njan doesn't venture out there often. Just sometimes). Krans is very technical at times, and although he's a Windows NT user, he can be forgiven.

Joanna


Joanna, Princess of Darkness. The person off whom Njan's title was shamelessly plagerised (With permission, I hasten to add)...

Lisa


Lisa co-founded the "Save the fish" campaign. She's also a member of lots of other things, and she's the H2G2 Patron Saint Of Unrequited Love, apparantly. (Tres Petrarchian.. {sp?} ). She's very funky, and is comstantly being pestered by me. {at time of publication}








The business is because the parser was complaining that the tags had no attributes, so I put those in as redundant attributes... I then discovered that it was in fact talking about something else, and so these bits are actually un-needed, I just can't be bothered to remove them. That and I like having funky s.

Just change the text (the content), and the background colour, if you must. It'd be nice if you kept the font as Verdana -3, since it looks nice. And the colours are good, since they work in both classic goo and alabaster, and look nice in both. On second thoughts, it would be better to keep the colour....

Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you!!!! I love you!!!!

(Well. You know what I mean!)

It's ok It's ok It's ok It's ok It's ok It's ok It's ok It's ok. You do?

Oh. And there I was getting all excited. *grins*

Hope you enjoy it. :-p

Oh good Oh good Oh good Oh good Oh good Oh good Oh good Oh good. Well...

I do but not in that way if you see what I'm saying.

The table is sehr sehr useful.

There. It takes up most of the space on my page now

Thanks!

*grins*
I see.

You even lengthened it without messing it up! *grins again*

I'm not really as bad at GML as I seem

Phew..First of the batches of end-of-term exams done with, just another two now... Actually I quite enjoyed them

Ok, sorry. ... only I'm a web designer, so I have to be patronising about these things.

Well, I have 2 exams, and then I'm finished til September.

I've got 6 left, and I'm not going to revise at all, Ahahahahaha.. *gets pulled away from the computer and starts to revise*

Hmmmm no.

Ah so you're a web designer. That's all very well, but did he drown?

Lisa

Hmmm... Njan, that table is really /very/ useful really. Shall deploy ASAP... what about on the cantina project (I'm a web designer too, Freak - sorry, Lisa :-p)

Drown? Who?

Hmmm... Njan, that table is really /very/ useful really. Shall deploy ASAP... what about on the cantina project (I'm a web designer too, Lisa)

Drown? Who?

I'm seeing double... am I drunk, or is it deja vu?

On the BBC's Python Night, they redid the first ever It's Man sketch, which involved Michael Palin wading out very far to sea and coming back to shore, panting "It's". On Python Night, they joked that Michael couldn't hear them screaming for him to come back. Then John ??//Cleese said,

"Well that's all very well, but *did he drown*?"


Any excuse for a Python explanation

BTW you do realise that Njan's post which had the table code in it is on the list as one of the longest posts

Yes.. I knew it would be.. checked 3 minutes after I posted it, and twas No. 3.
