ahh... so can it be possible that when you click a pic and the url will be opened in new window? It won't be replacing the current window you are in?

[Squally Leonharty]

I've just realized, thanks to Aexoden, that it is still possible to change the bordercolor. This is the last time I'm gonna say it.

This one gives you a blue border:

<a href="URL"><img src="URL to picture" style="border-color:blue;"></a>

I assure you that works.


As for the new window, you need to point to a target, which should be:

<a href="URL" target="_____">

_____ can be:

- newwindow
- _blank

It can also be done in Javascript, but that's not necessary for you.

<a href="http://pub80.ezboard.com/banimefreak"><img src="http://www.animevisions.net/Pictures/Sillykenshin.gif" style="border-color:blue;"></a>

Yay!!! Thanx a lot! So what does the target="_blank" mean... I did try the target="_blank" but all it did was the same as "newwindow" So both are the same? So what's the best for you the one w/ border or the one w/o?

[Squally Leonharty]

_blank and newwindow have both the same function: popping up a new window.


I think with border is better than without one.

How to make the fonts glow!?

[crono_logical]

<table width=450 cellpadding=10 style="filterLOW(color=#ff3333, strength=15)"><TR><TD>
<B><FONT COLOR="#99ff00">What? Like this? It's an IE specific feature, just to let you know, so people using Netscape or Opera won't be able to see it </FONT></B></TD></TR></table>

I used:

style="filterLOW(color=#ff3333, strength=15)"

inside the TABLE tag

You can change the colour and strength values, of course


For some strange reason, it only works in a TABLE tag for me, and not the normal FONT tag

[syun_ukiya]

Good!

So can you use color names for example blue, rather than color codes. Anc can you make different fonts glow!? Or that will be tha only and default font!?

[Squally Leonharty]

You can use both words and hexademical numbers. And yes, you can make different fonts glow.

[crono_logical]

Hexadecimal would be better, better you can tweak the colour to suit your purposes much more precisely

<table cellpadding=10><TR><TD style="filterLOW(color=#ffff33, strength=15)">
<B><FONT SIZE="+1" COLOR="#ff0000" FACE="Comic Sans MS">How do you mean different fonts?</FONT></B></TD></TR><TR><TD style="filterLOW(color=#3333ff, strength=15)"><FONT SIZE="+3" COLOR="#00ff00" FACE="Brush Script MT"><B>I don't see why not, just change the font face like you normally do </B></FONT></TD></TR><TR><TD style="filterLOW(color=#ff3300, strength=15)"><FONT SIZE="+1" COLOR="#3300FF" FACE="Times New Roman"><B>Though it appears you have to do it in paragraph chunks, it doesn't seems to work for individual letters </B></FONT></TD></TR></table>

Don't go over the top with it, it makes it fairly hard to read without enlarging the text

[Squally Leonharty]

They look nice, though.

[crono_logical]

<TABLE CELLPADDING=25 WIDTH=500 HEIGHT=150><TR><TD align=center valign=middle style="color: #00ffff; filter: glow(color=#990033,strength=25) flipV() flipH() Wave(Freq=11,LightStrength=40,Strength=3);"><FONT SIZE="+2" face="Comic Sans MS"><B>Shame it's an IE thing only I don't remember that many other effects off the top of my head though </B</FONT><BR><IMG WIDTH="60" HEIGHT="60" SRC="http://clogical.homestead.com/files/cronocyclone.gif">&nbsp;<IMG WIDTH="60" HEIGHT="60" SRC="http://clogical.homestead.com/files/hynowave.gif">&nbsp;<IMG WIDTH="60" HEIGHT="60" SRC="http://clogical.homestead.com/files/files/magusspl.gif"></TD></TR></TABLE>

It's interesting how this highlights

[Squally Leonharty]

:laugh:

Not bad, crono. You can do a lot of nifty tricks with the table tag.

[syun_ukiya]

hey that's cool how did you do that upside down thingy!?

[Squally Leonharty]

Just add this:

flipV()

in the TD tag.

flipH() is also possible. It'll make the text backwards.

[crono_logical]

Not just inside the TD tag, but inside the STYLE parameter as such:

&lt;TD STYLE="filter: flipH() flipV();">


You need both if you want proper upside-down as above, use one if you want thing thing to appear as a mirror image.
