erm DJ just strip the other commands, the Word HTML exports arent as bad as they used to be, but imho writing in rtf is importable by other tools for real clean HTML. besides, character coding shouldnt be a problem if that whole stuff is saved as XML, right ?

How do you do html without centering and junk like that. Back when i did it, about 5 years ago, you always had to give its line alignment and such. Since when didn't you have to do that? Or is this in xhtml or something?

GOOD HTML. :) None of this frontpage ms word crap. :) Just use simple bold or italics and junk. No centering, no colors, etc.

DJ If you like I can submit a list of who wrote what. Its all in the credits on the holocron site, but I know you're short of time, so I'll send you a list ;).


I saw it in the credits, but it wasn't very specific. I got some of the authors assigned, but what i need is something like 1.1.1 = this guy, 1.1.2 = that guy.

Btw, you want the writers to write it in notepad? the thing is, we have a general layout that we need for all the sections, and with notepad we cant do anything. Wordpad would work though, is that ok too?


Write it in notepad with basic HTML formatting. Use <b></b> for bold words, <i></i> for italics, and <u></u> for underlining. Use <a href="URL">link</a> for clickable links. Write it in word 1st w/o any formatting if it'll help you w/ a spell check and all, but it really can screw up character encodings and all. ditto for wordpad. :)

Dont worry about embedding images. Images are added after the article is created. See the IRC section for an example.

I have seen hell, and it is text formatting for holocron insertion. Next time don't use Word. Please. PLEASE. P L E A S E.

I have section 1 converted.. mostly.. I need to get a handle on some of the authors. Most of it still shows me as the author. If you see something you wrote and it says I wrote it please let me know. :)

About the timezones
How about a special section in which you explain what countries belong to what timezone
and even better
include Daylight Savings time and the other one (can't rememeber the english name)
That would be a great help to some people

Right? BAIL??!!:)

Hi everyone!

Just going through the forum and noticed the last post in this thread was from a while ago. I know from other threads there is lots of change going on with the Holocron. I'd like to offer my services in any way possible with the project. As noob as a noobie can be, I doubt I can contribute much in the way of content, but if you need any help with coordination, writing, publishing, updates, etc., I'm sure I could offer something.

Thanks for considering the offer!

Khalek- Point of information: the BB/BS idea _is_ indeed a separate issue from the Holocron, and is being coordinated now by Mune. He'd be more than happey to get the help you offer. btw, the idea, as you said, _does_ fall in line of why I pushed the Holocron to begin with. But, it is too big of a project (and different) from the Holocron, so it is separate.

Hope that helps you understand a little bit better.

Those editorial issues RE the IRC chapter...excellent. Needed someone to go through it with a fine tooth comb. Talk to MoS about working more closely with him to clean things up for when it gets officially plastered up on the JA web site.

AsoAron was the one who wrote that IRC chapter, so you may want to thank him personally for putting it together...

Peace.

BTW - I've just used your IRC guide (never used it before...:eek: ) and it's excellent.

I would point out that I think your link points to a different version to your guide (if only from the pics). Under 'Connect' your pic has Options - Perform - Local Info - Identd - Firewall, whereas mine has Servers then Options, and no Perform. The differences seem cosmetic only (have to go to a different subtab on using it the first time to do the top and bottom parts of the first pic), but may be enough to deter a new user.

I'm made of sterner stuff :) (but still found that the guide enabled me to use something that would otherwise be unusable for me). Thank you all.

Also the choice of Quakenet and then the local server is in the same dropdown menu. They've simplified it slightly.

No need for the initial 'Join' command for the channel, I think. It is forced upon you when you first connect to quakenet.

The guide doesn't really state which is the 'Status Window.' It may seem obvious, and I think I will find it in the manual (RTFM, LOL) but it'd be a quick sentence that'd stop some questions... [edit: I've found it...simple really, being the first window, but it'd be something you might not think of LOL /edit]

I don't think that the " /MSG Q HELLO Youremailaddress Youremailaddress " command is the same (may just be me, and yes, I did put my email address in instead :) )


One site issue (maybe..not sure if it is deliberate or not...:) ) is that if you click on a picture you go to anothr site that shows the same guide in a different template. If this is a newer (or older) version of the holocron, people may use this to determine the location of it before you want them to...

I've been usiing shift+F5 to fully refresh the page if I've found a problem, to make sure it's not a cached version. Therefore these points are all correct as of now (he says just before they do a massive update, LOL).

I've also realised that I use parentheses waaaaaay too much (like this).

Seeya. Sorry for my 4:51 a.m. verbal diorrhea.

Nightynight.
