We’re High Class Now!
July 24th, 2006 . by CaryAs much of a techno-junkie as I used to be, I stopped keeping abreast of bleeding edge updates quite a few moons ago. As such, the finer points of HTML have eluded me, much to my web-ring masters’ chagrin on more than one occasion, even though I only posted about it once.
Anyway – Gawfer started a blog roll of his own, with help from the exceedingly helpful and computer-savvy Texas Fred. I got a little piece of code (two things to watch out for – a software guy with a screwdriver, and a hardware guy with a piece of code!) and inserted it in my sidebar – now I have IKA’s Blogroll listed!
Go ahead, get the “ooh” and “aah” out of your system – I’ll wait.
After I tested the view, I noticed that IKA had a scrolling window – saving all sorts of room in the sidebar, especially as the blog roll grows. Well, I knew (being the hyper-aware kinda guy that I am) that Texas Fred’s blog roll didn’t have that little window. It only took me about five minutes of code inspection and some cut-and-paste action, and voila Fred’s roll is in a window too!
I have really come a long way, haven’t I? Well, I think I have.
P.S. to all the CAIR lurkers – until you all start standing up and denouncing the murderous activities of the “minority” of your religion, then the rest of the world will continue to see these actions as the mainstream, accepted actions of your religion, and you wouldn’t want that, would you? Unless, of course, it truly is NOT a “Religion of Peace” as you so heartily claim…
God bless you all, especially those who would reject the blessing – ya’ll are gonna have a real surprised look on your face come Judgement Day!
Thanks for the blessing and on some days I surely need it.. Your site is looking good mr Cary and the text boxes are the way to go, with out them the blogrolls would extend from me to you…
We all need it, bro. Yes, some days we feel we need it more than others, but God takes that into consideration.
And man, it’s a long way from me to you…
you handsome devil you.
Yeah, I like those scroll boxes. and you deserve the best anyway!
Go Navy!
That’s handsome devildog to you, squid.
Thanks for thinking I deserve the best!
Semper Fi!
Lookin’ good bro. I have a little of both on my blogrolls. I’m deleiberately making my sidebar nice and long. My template has a quirk in it that causes the maind body to get cut off at the bottom of the sidebar, soooooo, the longer the sidebar, the more content I can display in the main body. Oh well.
That’s a weird quirk. I think there is a way for the scroll window to be made longer; I may experiment with that – but not on my live blog!
More content! More content!
Semper Fi, John. Thank you for your continued service!
Keeps looking better here, you handsome devildog.
Cary, the code height is set for 200 pixels long, you can make it 225, 250, or whatever you want it to be
Go Navy
DS: Thank you, devilpup.
Gawfer: I knew I could count on you, bro. Thanks for saving me some embarrasingly simple mistakes.
Go Navy! Ooh-Rah!
Hey there you handsome Teufelhunden you…you’re blog is truly one of my favorites, keep up the great work…later bro.
Thanks, Gunz – I appreciate the compliment.
Semper Fi!
But Cary, it is a religion of peace. Click on me and I’ll prove it.
Thanks for the link, Gunz. Timely as always. I’m using it.
