(note that the same thing happens for #B6AD81)



Basically, trying to find the background color, I viewed the HTML, noted all the colors and did a test for each one to find what I was looking for... just a quick and dirty series of copy&pastes, right?

BUT... The problem seems to be the #A60C0C. That's what *should* display as the second test line, after #729168 in both groups.

Something odd is going on with whatever comes after it ---

I checked it out and #A60C0C IS supposed to be an actual color, LOL


I tested #A60C0C test line (as seen below, but without the added spaces)...

< font color="#A60C0C” >test A60C0C< /font >

... with some miscellaneous test ASCII afterwards, neither the one displays... at all.


[poof]


weirdness.


Of course the red/green colorblindness isn't helping a lot either... (grrr)...

“Hmmm--

What if A60C0C is First in the series...?


test F3E7AC

test B6AD81

test 95EAAF


YEP.

The #A60C0C line doesn't display and the color on the next line is wrong, LOL”

The most popular symbol is ■ (solid black square), also called tombstone or Halmos symbol (after Paul Halmos, who pioneered its use). The tombstone is sometimes open: □ (hollow black square). Unicode explicitly provides the "End of Proof" character U+220E (∎), but also offers ■ (U+25A0, black square)

You know him.... but not very well.  You don't know that you know him at all, but you probably do if you were born before 1960.  I guess Don Rumsfeld would call that an 'unknown known'.”

“What are you sorry for?”

“


So much for that ---”

“HTML Cheat Sheet

note:
Be sure to remove any space after any left angle bracket < and before any right angle bracket > to make these work..... I had to insert those spaces so they wouldn't be treated as actual code.

And keep all the quotation marks.....



This bit of code launches a new browser window with the linked page displayed:

< A HREF="the actual link to the webpage" TARGET="_blank" >what you want to call it< /A >


For example,

< A HREF="http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap020324.html" TARGET="_blank" >The Cat's Eye Nebula< /A >

gives you this:

The Cat's Eye Nebula


to display an image full sized:

< IMG SRC="the URL of the image" >


to display an image with different dimensions:

< IMG SRC="the URL of the image" WIDTH="999" HEIGHT="999" >

(You may prefer to only specify the height or width, and automatically maintain the aspect ratio of the original.... Widths up to 450 or so are okay on TT -- anything much larger kinda screws up the thread)

I usually go with something like this:

< IMG SRC="the URL of the image" WIDTH="300" >



This code displays an image that's also a link to a page in a new browser window (click on the image itself and it opens another browser window with the new page in it):

< A HREF="the link to the webpage" TARGET="_blank" >< IMG SRC="the link to the image" >< /A >


..... and with different dimensions:

< A HREF="the link to the webpage" TARGET="_blank" >< IMG SRC="The link to the image" WIDTH="300" >< /A >



Once you've got it in your head where the URLs and things go, you can just save a short Word document with these doodads on it... (with those pesky spaces already removed)�.. Just paste in the line of code, then the other stuff.

Link:
< A HREF="" TARGET="_blank" >< /A >

Link to Headline:
< font size=3 >< A HREF="" TARGET="_blank" >< /A >< /font >

Image, centered:
< center >< IMG SRC="" >< /center >

Resized Image, centered:
< center >< IMG SRC="" WIDTH="300" >< /center >

Image that's also a Link, centered:
< center >< A HREF="" TARGET="_blank" >< IMG SRC="" >< /A >< /center >

Resized Image that's a Link� � centered:
< center >< A HREF="" TARGET="_blank" >< IMG SRC="" WIDTH="400" >< /A >< /center >


If you want to get the URL of an image you see on the 'Net, right click on it, then click on 'Properties' and an information box will appear with the address and other info. Highlight the URL, then [ctrl-c] copy it and [ctrl-v] paste it into the line of HTML.

Unfortunately, with Webshots and some other websites, all you may see is the dreaded little box with the 'x' in the middle. To avoid that, you must sometimes save the image to your own computer, then upload it to your own webpage or somewhere like Photobucket.com.



May the Shwartz be with you.”
