ita, the link above is your message is from this thread so I hope I can ask you this here? Or we can move to technology?
I'd like to use a similar format to create a book list. If I can. How'd you do it?
I'm thinking that I could use a Word table for columns 2 & 3 (or whatever). Then the link part - is there any way to do that besides cutting and pasting this " [a href=http://www.linky.com]I am a link[/a]", going to a post and cut/pasting its URL into "linky.com", cut/pasting some reference word into "I am a link"? Because it's more cutting/pasting per row/column than I think I want to tackle.
edit: I hope this works. I can't even get the message to stay! 2nd edit: yay!
Are you asking how to create an HTML table? Because that's all that that is. As for the links, you could always use a WYSIWYG html editor.

I understand each acronym but I don't what it is.

Link Aha Like this?
Link 2 Is this Working?
okay, so that doesn't work. Nope, I don't know how. I'll ask someone in our tech section tomorrow. Never mind. Thanks.
Any decent html editor will make creating tables, and links within the tables, easier than doing all the coding by hand.
Word probably has some functionality in that regard. I hate Word's html editing because it adds in a lot of crap that you don't need on your web page, or does it's coding in a bloated fashion, but for your purposes it would probably work OK.
I've tried three or four times to change the ital. "n" to a "u" in this post, but it won't let me. I can get to the Edit Post screen all right, but when I click the OK button it gets me back to the unedited version of the post (and it doesn't seem to be a my-browser's-cache thing).

Huh. Lets me edit it fine. But
pretensious
isn't the right spelling either -- can you change it now?
But pretensious isn't the right spelling either
Oh, throw THAT in my face.
No. I tried again, focusing on the t this time (I can, apparently, only handle one letter switch at once. It's a small-brain,-2-AM thing.) but it wouldn't listen now either.
I have tried to edit this post 3 times, and the changes aren't taking:

(I can get to the edit screen and type, but after I hit "post message" the changes aren't there.)
Belated yo to be on the dev list. Not that I'm likely to be of much help, but I'm willing, and I'm already learning a good deal just from lurking here.
