Do you have problems, concerns or recommendations about the technical side of the Phoenix? Air them here. Compliments also welcome.
and when Daniel's post is on the screen, everything on the screen after it is in red.
Lee, the reason that's happening is that the red text is coming from the red tag in Daniel's post. If that's not on the screen, no red.
Yep. I just stated it in reverse.
Plei, it is fixed now.
Funny thing is, I intentionally double checked that I had two t /font tags, and paired the closes with the opens *before* typing in the "Happy Birthday Windsparrow" because of all the problems with that sort of thing. Plus someone else posted after I did and his post wasn't red for me following my post, so I went off to shovel the driveway and didn't check back. I'm using NS 7.02 in OS9
Huh. Weird.

I think it was wigging because of the way some of the autoformatting works, just based on when I looked at the source of the message (thank you, Firefox!). I changed it so that it went "c font font bold happy br birthday br windsparrow /bold /font /font" (ETA: all on one line)
(BTW, you only need the one font tag with size="#" color="color"--it can save a body typing!)
Yeah I've had closed tags unclosed by autoformatting. I will post when I can recreate.
One example I did three bigs and the close change to close bold so:
t big t big t big text to make large t /big t /big t /big
ended up as t big t /b t big t /b t big text to make large t /big t /big t /big t /b
to make sure I'm doing it right I will try this example, then delete
Text to make large
So this following should be small again.
Well everything is closed that should be closed. I could swear this once opened a tag I had closed properly, but maybe that was typo boy error. At any rate the /bs are not neccesary; but it does not seem to be a critical error.
Gus is currently working on completely new tag-closing, DCJ, so this should be a thing of the past once it's tested and implemented.
So I just made a link over in Natter. When I click on it, it takes my current window to that new site. Sometimes i click on a link here and it opens a new window, which I like. How do I make it open a new window?
You need to add the parameter 'target="_blank"' to the link tag, i.e.,
<a href="http://www.buffistas.org" target="_blank">buffistas.org</a>
would look like this, buffistas.org , and open a new window.
Thanks, DX. I'll save that for future use.
Ooh, me too! Thanks, DX.
If someone makes a link like that, is there any way to force it to open in the current window? I know that, on a regular link, you can right-click and click "open in new window" to get it to do that, but is there a way to make one of those not open a new window?
