Naturally, I welcome further tips, links, and useful hints to make using Free Republic easier for all.

View Partial Source bump!

Newbies this is a must!

Take a serious look at Netcaptor (Uses IE 5 or 6)! Easy way to manage multiple windows and helps with popup ads!

Tabbed browsing in Mozilla and Opera. Additional tabs take up less memory than whole new IE Windows.
And Moz has a lot of great built in stuff, email, HTML editing, Jabber Client, personal profiles, etc.
It's really all I use these days.

Thanks for the helpful tips and info -- I am one of the ones who will benefit. :)

Another trick:

Put brain in gear before putting keyboard in motion.

Thanks backhoe. Always enjoy your posts.

Bookmarked but this stone age FReeper is still using smoke signals. Am I the only one frozen in space and time...

Hey there. Thanks for posting this, backhoe.
I remember how grateful I was last year
when someone posted the link to download "View Partial Source".

I think your link for FastHTML has moved. (I'm now using my notepad file for links and images :)

Is this it on Page 6?
http://www.winsite.com/tech/html/page6.html

I have a tip for those pesky dead links that always make you wonder, hmmm why was this page pulled?
Simply go to the WayBack Machine at www.archive.org.
They archive back to 1996 and list all updates
to web pages by month and year.

I've been on the internet since before there was really a "World Wide Web"...I'm still a computer IDIOT but I've gotten fairly good at figuring-out how to make links and/or pictures on other message board...

I've been posting on Free Republic for over a year now...And lurked for well over a year before that...And still...THIS IS THE SINGLE MOST CONFUSING MESSAGE BOARD I HAVE EVER BEEN ON!!!

Yes, this is a topic for another post but I'll go on...

I've given a link to this site to numerous "Net Friends"...Each and EVERY ONE comes back and says that they can't understand how to use this place and just give up and go away...I almost did the same but being the Political Junkie and Broken Glass Republican that I am, I didn't give up...And now I know how to post and can get around pretty good (Although I still have NO IDEA of how to use the "Subscribe" feature....)

Anyway...I am POSITIVE we are missing a LOT of good contributors because this place is so WEIRD!! And maybe that's by design...Maybe it keeps out the Riff-Raff...I don't know...

/Rant

So anyway......I still can't post links or pictures here...It's just SO WEIRD!!! (I've NEVER been to a board where you have to put a "P" surrounded by <> just to make a new paragraph!! My request is this...

Please tell me how to post pics and links...And please do it this way....

Put all those wierd commands (http///.href<>blahblah) on the front and end of the example and then type "PUT THE LINK OF THE URL OR THE PICTURE RIGHT HERE" (But exclude the "'s otherwise I'll think I have to add them too). Maybe by doing that, I'll learn how to do it.

And please don't confuse me by adding that thing where you get to name the link anything you want...That just just makes things worse.

Thanks a lot!

I'm ignoring this thread. Plus, because I'm not logged on, I won't be able to post a reply anyway.
