Just a short note this time. I’ve made some changes to a few of the web pages that deal with photos and slide shows. On both the Cats and Dogs pages, clicking on the photos will now open a larger version of that photo. On the Jer’s Toys page, clicking on any of the 4 photos will bring up a sub-page that deals a little more in depth with that topic. So far, 3 of the 4 pages (Motorcycle, Snowmobile, and ATV) have topic-specific slide shows at the bottom of the page. Hopefully I will have the 4th slide show, dealing with the Scout II, done by this weekend.
Pam kids me about these changes, and they are probably not of great interest to many people, but heck. Its my web page, and I enjoy tweaking the code to make some of these things happen. These changes also allow me show off a few more photos. You be the judge!
In a few days I’ll have another post dealing with our Land Hunt (we are making another trip this weekend) and a post-Christmas summary. Check back when you can.
Thats it for now. Thanks for looking in.
Jer, I looked at your source code for the Cat Page… are you coding your own Javascript and HTML?
I am guessing “yes” because the code looks really clean. If you’re not writing it, what are you using to create the page?
Becky:
The HTML code is mostly my own, except for the slide show. That code is created by Cincopa and I just paste it in at the bottom of my pages, adding the align=”center” in the statement to keep the show centered on the page.
I use Dream Weaver in a split-screen mode, code on top half and results on the bottom. I am far from being proficient with DW, but most of my code is pretty simple and doesn’t require advanced editing skills. Maybe some day!
The date/time javascript code at the top of the page is a sample I found on-line. I modified it a bit to make the display more readable, but still don’t know if I really like it. Its not supported in some browsers, like Safari on my Mac. I’m not a javascript person though I am trying to understand the basics.
Thanks for the comment!
