I saved that somewhere............

Oh yeah --





A Brief HTML Cheat Sheet

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:

<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 trashes the thread)


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

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


… with different dimensions:

<A HREF="the link to the webpage" TARGET="_blank"><IMG SRC="The link to the image" WIDTH="999" HEIGHT="999"></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... paste in the line of code, then the other stuff.

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

Image:
<IMG SRC="">

Resized Image:
<IMG SRC="" WIDTH="450">

Image that's a Link
<A HREF="" TARGET="_blank"><IMG SRC=""></A>

Resized Image that's a Link
<A HREF="" TARGET="_blank">>IMG SRC="" WIDTH="450"></A>


If you want to get the URL of an image, 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.


Good Luck (and may the Shwartz be with you).

You're a good teacher!
Between you, Gemini and some others...... I finally get it!
Yay! Now.... I wanna switch over to fototime or some other, better photo service than yahoo or webshots. It would be easier since sometimes a body just wants to share a single photo, or single photo album at most. Not a slew of stuff.
I'm happy! :-)

Yup. I don't know about the others, but Webshots won't let you display a picture, you know, with that <IMG SRC="http//www.yadda-yadda.jpg"> routine. You'll just get that famous little box with the 'x' in it. I think the only sure way of doing that is to have your own webspace somewhere.


Hmmm. I wonder what an image of width="999" would look like here.... ?

Just Kidding, Matt!

I predict you will not live through the night.


Either that, or you have a coming date with some hot tar, feathers, and a rail.

I do still have a few pairs of those psychedelic golf pants from the '70s so I can blend in. It's kinda like 'Augusta Camouflage', LOL

Sorry man. I had to work. When I am a free agent and UT Hospital no longer pays me $$$... I will be at all such functions.

I'm skeered of you people. Except for a few who I know from real life already. I know Jeffers won't kill me though he likes to threaten and talks a good game. I know Gemini is very nice and has stayed in my home. Magellan Sky is a great fellow and has been in my home. The rest of you.... I will have to learn about. I will probably run like He11 when I first see Capn Bobo, Boodah Bear, and assorted others.
