Progress At Last

28 January 2002

Progress at last. Feeble as it may appear, there are now two new links on my web log. Dane Carlson gets my thanks for the advice he provided via email! Take a look at his site. It will help the newbies. In addition to being a newbie, I’m ill-equipped to understand much of what is said on the Discussion board, in the help screens and at the Yahoo list. That must make me an incompetent rookie. However, I like Radio 8.0.2 and want to learn more!! Thanks again Dave et al!!!
I’m going to have to learn HTML. It is obvious that I need to be able to look at a line of tagged text and understand whether it is HTML or XML. I can’t do that today. However, I’m willing to chase down the differences. Is everyone but me walking around with all those tags and syntax rules in their heads???
Should I be using a WYSIWIG editor? Then, show the source and copy it into the Radio prefs? Still lots to learn!
How do I link back to one of my own posts?
Why do so many Radio sites have a place to enter your email address? If I do that will I be getting their updates by email? Or, are those simply allowing me into discussions that are happening at those sites? More to learn than I can keep up with!!!
It’s fun though. Had I started programming early in my career, I might know some of this stuff. We make our choices and our choices turn around and make us!!!
