Hi --
Yesterday, I uploaded a file of 7700-7827 (it's labelled 7700 - 8000
because I thought we had 8000 Yahoo messages). Turns out we only
have
7827 or so thus far. I guess I'll continue to check that site
periodically & update, but things have slowed way down over there.
There are still occasional posts but I think our core membership has
migrated to egroups.
I have added the 7700 - 7827 messages into FORT.
Ebony -- If you're too busy to get to the FORT stuff, I'll be happy
to
enter your messages for you. I know you're swamped, and I think
maybe
I could have done a better job of communicating early on with this
group (before the teachers & students went back to school). I wasn't
too clear that we were definitely going to be doing FORT myself until
mid-way through. I'm still largely relying on the individual files,
because I find it's easier. I was planning to use FORT as a final
check. Anyway . . . . feel free to let me know if your schedule is
getting too overwhelming & you need me to enter your stuff into FORT.
Formatting Questions -- noone ever really said, but is there an
*easy*
way to provide a link directly to the messages being cited? Dee
posted some sort of coding example that made *no* sense whatever to
me. I have zero background in computer programming (zero!). If that
is what's required, I will need someone else to code mine for me as
that's completely out of my technical skill-set. Or, should we just
go with providing the HPforGrownups-Archive & HPforGrownups (egroups)
URLs at the beginning of each set of messages cited?
As for page length & page set-up (frames v no-frames) and the like --
I'll leave those decisions to you experts. I assume it's fine if I
just set about writing my FAQs into Word & let someone else figure
out
how it should all be set up on the website?
