Hi, I want provide just one nice tip, I hope you will like it.
Posts in these BOINC message boards are understanding HTML tags, it means I can write bold, italic or put some link into my text. How?

To write bold you have to write this:
<b>bold</b> and this is result: bold
or italic:
<i>italic</i> and this is a result: italic
More difficult for a link, but even easy:
<a href=&quot;http://slavko.sk&quot;>link</a> and result: link (just put link address inside the quotes).
I hope it will help.
Enjoy.

The List is achieved in this fasion:

I give a lesson in the Web Site Owner's Manual ...

There are a few more things that work, and I think this extends to almost all of the special character forms:

&hellip; &hellip;

&quot; &quot;

&amp; &

&trade; &trade;

&reg; &reg;

Having the need to write something like that:

c:\\windows\\boinc\\slot1\\...

you write two backslashes &amp\&amp, one will be eaten, the other will stay.
c:backslash backslash windowsbackslash backslash boinc...

Yeah - It's a pain when you want to write an escape sequence like & amp ;.
It always ends up as &amp;, or simply &.

Also, the slashes are a problem when I posted ASCII art - I hadda use &#x??; (amp, hash, X-ray, wild-hex, wild-hex, semi, in case it screws up again)

One app I should point out is Unicode Checker - It's only got one "Oopsie" (U+0100-0FFF aren't written using four hex digits), but it's free!

Can anyone please give me an example I can use to add a logo to my team page.

I did look at Paul D. Bucks site, he said, "Team name (HTML)
Here you make your artistic statement and make the team name just as fancy as you can. Or, if you are like me, no artistic talent at all, well, I just left it blank"
.
His site IS EXCELLENT.

I was hoping to use the logo from my team homepage, is that possible?

Thanks

Heather

Try this one:
<img src=&quot;http://slavko.sk/seti/vlajka_sk_extra2.png&quot;>
just replace my picture url address with your.
Should work.

Thanks for the reply Slavko.sk, I am afraid that did not work. The image was a gif so I changed it to a png file, and still no luck. Perhaps there is a file size limit. I have seen other teams with their own logos showing, so I know it can be done. I will keep trying.

Thanks again.

Heather,

There have been off and on problems with some of the updates to the project database with images. I have not had problems recently, but they can happen.

The real trick to adding images sometimes is that you have to "expose" them on a server somewhere and then code the IMG tag to read them off of the server. For example, I have a couple of images that I drop onto my server, then I can reference them here and you can see them.

Many of the ISP's offered server capabilities don't really allow this. You don't really have full access to the location to allow other web pages to "pull" from your site.

If you know where one of my images is by path name you can call it up to look at.

And thank you for your kind words ... :)

I do try ...

I have quite a few changes comming this week, so later today I should be uploading basically almost a whole new site... I have added some of "The Lattice Project's" site, Einstein@Home, a new "direct" link feature to pages in the Web Site Owner's Manual (for those of us that KNOW the page name and just want to get there ...) ...

Picture can be in any format that browser may display. Because it is only link to the original location, like that my one is located on mine web server. Please, may you provide me your picture url address, i think, there is a problem. Feel free to use my email slavko@slavko.sk.
It should work, I just put it here for a while. Use this in your team Description field:
<img src=&quot;http://www3.telus.net/seti/SATURN6.png&quot;>

Heather,

Thanks ... I do try ...

As a matter of fact I have started the Friday update to the site, so, in a couple hours all of this week's changes should be visible. There is quite literally not an untouched page in the whole site.

The bad news is that there is not a single untouched page. But, I am making progress, so that is good.

One of the things that slows me down is that I am stil learning PHP, though now I have several good books so, hopefully, as I have programmed before, it is just a matter of learning the rules-of-the-road.

Better new is that many places will be getting updated content that will be more consistant across the site.

The FAQ is still growing ... we are nearing 500 topics, though 90+ of those are just messages.

I also started one computer doing Einstein@Home, so I am going to be learning that system too ...

Where possible, I have gotten images from all of the projects, though The Lattice Project is still a Alpha state so I don't have too many there. I am also recapturing from all projects as they all have at the very least, minor changes ...
