I surrender

[low_delta]

I've been shoveling all afternoon. I'm hurtin'. I'm tired. I'm not done yet.

Funny thing is, after you surrender, you're still stuckwith the snow. Instead of fighting it, you're stuck in a POW camp, because you can no longer leave the house.

And I still haven't been skiing.

...which is just what some of us were discussing with Nahima.

Which reminds me, could someone tell me how to turn my LJ friends' names into links when I mention them here? What's the html code?

Links

You want, for example to link to freekee? What you do is put this in:

<a href='http://www.livejournal.com/users/low_delta'>freekee</a>

J, the tech god.

I always wondered how you got the pairs of brackets to show up.

ampersand,ell,tee,semicolon, huh?

Where can I find a list of html? Characters and commmands. I did a bit of a search, once, and didn't come up with anything.

Tech what!

It's my job to know this stuff. Those sequences beginning with ampersand are called "character entities", and you can find a table at

[Error: Irreparable invalid markup ('<a [...] http://www.htmlhelp.com/'>') in entry. Owner must fix manually. Raw contents below.]

It's my job to know this stuff. Those sequences beginning with ampersand are called "character entities", and you can find a table at <a href='http://www.htmlhelp.com/reference/html40/entities/latin1.html>http://www.htmlhelp.com/reference/html40/entities/latin1.html</a>. The rest of the <a href='http://www.htmlhelp.com/'>site</a> is pretty good too.

ROFL

There - what sort of god would post that nonsense?
What I tried to say was that you can see the entities at http://www.htmlhelp.com/reference/html40/entities/latin1.html, and the rest of that site is good too.

thanks

That page was great. Now where can I find more code codes? Like all those listed at the bottom of the LJ posting pages. I only recognize a third of them, at most.

I didn't get very far in the rest of that site.

Do you mean where it says:
Paragraphs will be automatically formatted. Allowed HTML: <a> <b> <big>

This are normal HTML tags. Try going to HTML Help and put the tage name in the search box for details.
