Getting ready for prime time... "Welcome Visiting Newsgroup Users" material has been added. asked 28 Feb '10, 16:14 Breck Carter Graeme Perrow |
I really appreciate your effort to refresh the FAQ. I think it's helpfull and will be a great guidance to first time users of this site. And I found answers to question I didn't know I had. Kudos to you! There's one question though I wasn't able to dig up an answer to: while nearly totally HTML ignorant I'd still like to know, if (or which) HTML tags may be used to format questions, answers and even comment. answered 05 Mar '10, 11:38 Reimer Pods 1
Thanks for the kind words... I'll be adding some more including some HTML pointers, probably (I hope) links to StackExchange docs on the subject. I have discovered (the very hard way) that the StackExchange software tries to parse your HTML, and sometimes [cough] messes it up. The FAQ itself has been "published" to the website at least a hundred times as I fumble past StackExchange quirks. HTML is fun, especially if you stick to the basics, so you'll enjoy it ( assuming you stick do to the basics :) |
Well done, Breck, methinks - especially the last sentence:)
If I should have made some folks curious - I don't feel sorry...
@Volker: Well, it WAS going to be a test to see if someone's actually read the whole thing, but now they'll just skip to the end... but that's OK :)
I see...so I should have mentioned the fine joke you have included right in the middle section (or was it some lines below/above)? Guess I have to read it again:)
Read it again? You have lived the creation of that FAQ by using SQL for weeks, you know all that stuff already :)
