  • Sine, when I post from a new location (a computer with an IP address different than one I've posted from before) I don't have a text field to enter in my Nick, only one for my password.

  • Somehow, we still tolerate each other. Eventually this will be the only forum left.

<div style='font: 10pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", "Century Gothic"; text-align: left; '>Plus, I'm not sure if a FORM pointing to a "javascript:" URL will work. I need a third catagory of clickables that seperate from the FORMs and the links that go to other pages, and indicated that clicking on it will result in immediate action. I may label the mode its in with the button/link/whatever (like "Quick Post", "Beginner", etc.).

I guess if the FORM method works, I can use buttons and then use images that are different between regular page-changing actions and JS actions.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", "Century Gothic"; text-align: left; '>Yeah, and the ALT property will work for people that don't want to use images. However, I want to wait until after the HTML4 Strict conversion before I start to add images to everything.</div>
