No thanks needed. Did it for my own purposes -- so it wouldn't look like
I couldn't figure out my graphics program.

Hope you can find time to make the switch...

Hi Susan,

Sorry for jumping in, here, but I would like to draw your attention to a
typo in my entry:

<code snippet>

....<img src="members/DC.gif" border="0" alt="DC"> </a>><br><a
href="http://dcicons.fateback.com/">...

</code snippet>

Note the extra GT symbol between the closing anchor tag and the line
break.

When you get the chance, of course. No rush... }:O)


For Blinky: Note the link -- that should take care of *one* of your
emails (all of which I plan to answer... eventually. };O)

Okay, time for me to be a bit fussy. I should have mentioned this in my
previous post. Do you see how there is a whitespace just prior to the
closing anchor tag? Well, since it is inside the <a href="... for the
.gif, it appears underlined in the browser.

OK, I'm shutting up for now... promise. };O)

THANK YOU! Your help is *much* appreciated - I'm still not too bright
about web pages. :)

I will revise . . .

Please *don't* shut up - I need all the help I can get. :)

Validation would have caught at least one of those errors. And
standards aren't a bad thing, in the first place -- they make the

You converted me a while back. ;)

I've confess I've been neglecting validation a bit - as I'm now juggling
two sets of PL pages . . .

But in this case the validator didn't help - I just rechecked the old
file to be sure.

Good. :)




It didn't even catch the double gt with a closing-something-not-open
error?

Nope. My impression is that it only catches a
<
that doesn't get closed - doesn't check to see if there are too many closing- I noticed this in some other context. You could experiment a bit to
see if that's true . . .

Ah! So you have a *habit* of closing unopened tags, then. I defer to your
specialist expertise. ;)

Blinky and Susan,
As someone once remarked, "The great thing about standards is that
there are so many of them."
