Here is a brief explanation of some of the questions you may have.
Can I put html tags anywhere in my posts?
No. You can not use HTML tags in any field except body of the message. You may use html tags in the body to show a link, a graphic, and/or to simply enhance your entry.
Why are there colons in the message when I try to post a followup?
Colons appear in the message dialog box when you try to followup up on a message to indicate that those lines are quoting the previous document.
Your post most likely did not show up, because your browser did not reload the page, it simply pulled it out of cache. Please reload your browser and it should then appear.
What is the HTML code to show a graphic?
The code to add a graphic to your entry is as follows: <img src="http://esperstamps.org/picture.jpg">
where the address is the location on the web where the graphic is
located. To change the font color add the following code before and
after the word/s you wish to highlight <font color="red">Words
to be highlighted</font>. Changing the font size or making it
bold are similar <font size="5">Five</font>
or <b>Bold</b> for bold and <i>for Italics</i>.
NOTE: The graphic or picture must be located on the
web in order for the link to work. It will not work for pictures located on
your own hard drive.
Where can I get the scripts for this program?
The scripts are written in Perl and are part of the nms project.
