If you are wondering about colours and the wrapper, you might need to understand about how parents relate to their floated children. You might find the following treatment helpful: <url: http://netweaver.com.au/floatHouse /> -- dorayme

A while back I used to use tinyURLs but then it was said by someone that there was some suspicion about these. Then a chap said to do it this way and that it had some authority behind it. e I also saw another method the other day but have forgotten it. Please, what do you suggest is best that might please nearly everyone? If it is not too onerous, I will just do it! I know I have no end of trouble on a daily basis with this newsreader regarding people's urls but I usually know every workaround... I think I will go back to simply typing the url and leave it at that. What do you think? -- dorayme

It was at that time the correct way to write a URL so that it wouldn't wrap in your newsreader if it was too long. The trailing / is to close the tag, as it is a single tag and their is no closing tag. Since we aren't writing xml, it may not be needed. Perhaps it's time to move on. Who knows about this? Jeff >

I like tinyURLs but I suppose some people wonder why the writer is hiding the real URL. > Please, what do you suggest is best that might please nearly > everyone? Well, <http://netweaver.com.au/alt/darius.html> seems fine to me as does <url: http://netweaver.com.au/alt/darius.html>. Thanks for the floathouse pages; they are good. I got stuck with parents not expanding to contain children in a site once. The author had tested with IE only and it was fine there but bad with Opera and FF. -- Steven |
