VanceS [real person] says, "I will now try to find the code in one of my
pages"
SusanneN . o O ( I am a little envious. I want to know everyhing that is
good for community building. It makes me wish I could have both platforms
running without trouble - but in a one-person-computer household, that would be
a luxury. )

Chris_in_Germany [guest] says, "Ok, sent the code"
DafneG says, "I got the mail"
VanceS [real person] says, "You just cut the code they send you and
paste it to a new file"
Chris_in_Germany [guest] says, "by e-mail"
VanceS [real person] says, "cool"
VanceS [real person] says, "so open Notepad or something like that"
SusanneN says, "Vance, it is easy to prepare a note, too :-)"
VanceS [real person] says, "and copy the code from the email and paste
it to notepad"
VanceS [to SusanneN]: "you mean paste it to a note, yeah good idea, but
they got the code in email now"
VanceS [real person] asks, "Does the code begin with <html> and
end with </html>?"
Chris_in_Germany [guest] says, "No it doesn't"
SusanneN [to VanceS]: "that's just as easy I guess :-)"
Chris_in_Germany [guest] says, "You need to add the <html>
</html> tags in"
VanceS [real person] says, "ok, then do this, paste the code to Notepad
and let me know when you've done that"
VanceS [real person] says, "Right Chris, you need to put
<html><body> at the beginning of the file"
VanceS [real person] says, "and </body></html> at the
end"
Chris_in_Germany [guest] says, "exactly, Vance"
DafneG asks, "Does the code have a lot of numbers?"
VanceS [real person] says, "So Daf, have you done that? Yep. You don't
have to worry about what's in the code. You just follow the directions."
VanceS [real person] says, "That's the way I do it anyway."
DafneG asks, "do I have to copy all the variables?"
Chris_in_Germany [guest] asks, "Copy everything in the code (don't worry
what the code is)?"
Chris_in_Germany [guest] says, "sorry, no "?""
VanceS [real person] says, "Yep, you copy where it says to start copying
up to where it says to stop copying"

the code to you"
TeresaAlm says, "Not yet here, Chris."
VanceS [real person] says, "You create a file in this format:"
Chris_in_Germany [guest] says, "sorry, put the wrong address
originally"
TeresaAlm says, "Just got it. Let me check."
VanceS [real person] says, "<html><body> then paste the code
here </body></html>"
VanceS [real person] says, "Then you save that file as
anynameyoulike.html"
SusanneN asks, "Dafne & Teresa, do you know where to put the tags
now?"
DafneG asks, "do I have to write on a web page or an only text
file?"
TeresaAlm asks, "Is it a very long thing we have to copy and paste?"
Chris_in_Germany [guest] says, "about 60 lines or so"
TeresaAlm asks, "Yes, that's what I mean. Do we include all the < and
> it includes?"
DafneG says, "my new file should be on a web page or on text file"

VanceS [real person] says, "Then give us the url and we'll leave you a
message"
VanceS looks changing into running clothes.
SusanneN asks, "Then, how does Daf upload a HTML file to her Geocities
domain, usually making pages from the automatic pagebuilder?"
Chris_in_Germany [guest] says, "Do you want to try my audio board:
http://www.home.fh-karlsruhe.de/~joch0001/
audio/audio_board.htm"
NigelC says, "You can do both in geocities - there's an upload option
somewhere in pagebuilder, if I remember"

level three HTML?"
VanceS [changing into running clothes] says, "I'll help you in
email"
DafneG says, "thanks, VAnce"
SusanneN says, "If you can find it, copy and paste the code inside
that"
SusanneN looks preparing hot cocoa for Hubby.
