Do people know to use View-PageSource (could be different on Explorer)
to steal other people's <sub><font color="red">t</font></sub><font color="orange">o</font><sup><font color="yellow">p</font><font color="lime">i</font><font color="green">d</font></sup><font color="blue">e</font><sub><font color="purple">a</font></sub> for a <sub><font color="red">r</font></sub><font color="orange">a</font><sup><font color="yellow">i</font><font color="lime">n</font><font color="green">b</font></sup><font color="blue">o</font><sub><font color="purple">w</font></sub>

<HTML>no worries - why do it if it ain't good enough to nick???

I only did it to find out how far you can stretch it. Only problem is i'm learning all this stuff, but then I'll feel obliged to use it on my webpage, which is currently nice and graphically clean. Nevermind....</HTML>

<HTML>Wait until it's working! I've been using cascading stylesheets, and also DIV to create the side bar and stuff. The advantage is that I can change everything really quickly and also make the links a bit funkier. The disadvantage is that I had to learn a whole load of extra bits of script.

I've now done that, but now have to throw everything together and ffind some kind of content...</HTML>

<HTML>You could do a Doc Savage Appreciation page, for starters. And a 'my favourite films', 'my favourite books', 'pictures of eddie'.

no, wait, that's my site...</HTML>

<HTML>Bah - been out for lunch so these go back a way:

1. My name is Inigo Montoya, you killed my father, prepare to die.

2. Crop rotation in the 14th centuary was considerably more widespread after John</HTML>

<HTML>DUCK AND COVER!! I think the Fforum is about to blow!


<font size="-1"><i><b>SOMEONE</b></i> is gonna make this whole Fforum blow up with bad HTML! We won't mention any names. But it could be a poet...or maybe a scientist...but it'll probably be the drinker!</font></HTML>

<HTML>hehehe, it's not BAD...just baaaad, get it? (Plus, it's been my experience that when there are copious amounts of HTML tags being used within Java type things, one missed bracket combined with some commands that aren't browser friendly can really blow up the page. Then it gets ugly! Or in this case "uglier" lol!)</HTML>
