unlinked page

[Buster Davis]

yes, is it possible to create a page inside of NOF11 but don't include it in the navigation setup? I want to build a page but then I want to link it a button on another page but not make it part of the navigation buttons. Please advise. Thanks

Yes it is. Go to Site View and over in the right side Page Properties tick
the Exclude from Navigation.

Please post in Plain Text, not in HTML.

HTH,

Please post in Plain Text, not in HTML? Why?

HTML doesn't play nice with some newsgroup readers. Plain text displays
better.

It works fine with Thunderbird. What happens with newsreaders that
don't like HTML?

You get lots of HTML code instead

I'm using XPN now - Windows Live Mail packed upon my Windows 7, but XPN
is nice and fast text mode

That's too bad... small jpeg's make it very easy to ask and answer
questions. People have been posting them to this newsgroup for years,
apparently to the dismay of those with ill-equipped newsreaders while at
the same time benefiting those with more flexible solutions.

Small distinction here; newsgroups (and e-mail for that matter) has
supported the idea of binary attachments for more years than I care to
admit knowing about <g>. You may have come across references to MIME
types - Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions. Roughly speaking this
encodes binaries (like images or programs) in a form than can be coped
with by simple (originally 7-bit ASCII) readers. It's separated from the
main message text by a set of headers and trailers. Typically your
newsreader or mail program would give you the option to save the
attachment to be opened in some external program.

Modern readers of course have the inherent ability to display images
inline, so that's typically what will happen. Net result, it appears
that the graphic is part of the message, usually at the end. The
difference between this and an HTML formatted message is not actually
that big; the basic format is the same, but the extra markup allows the
news/mail reader to embed a graphic within the message, or draw a table,
or (eek) play a sound... The downside being that all of the extra tags
(<p>, <table>, <span>, <i>, whatever) make the text more difficult to
read in a non-HTML reader - this is what Twayne and others are referring
to.

As retro as it might seem, many newsgroup users prefer to use small,
efficient text-based readers rather than a bells & whistles reader like
Thunderbird et al (my reader of choice, but I occasionally find myself
in non-GUI command line environments). So it's still a strong convention
to not post in HTML...

Phew. Hope that helps explain a little more!

I've run into some of that creating php html email solutions but yes,
that is a very helpful explanation. Thanks. I guess people who choose
to use text-only newsreaders will can expect to see messy html code
every now and then.
