PARRIS Wilmington Sussex Judith

Big Brother say well done .... Come on the rest of you ....


I have been inspired Judith... cross your fingers for me...

‘’’SOUTHALL’’’ Dudley and Rowley Regis cheggle


OK, something went a bit wrong there lol!

Try again... SOUTHALL Dudley and Rowley Regis cheggle

Hurrah! Looks like I have to change the apostrophes in here rather than coping the whole thing from word... hum not too difficult I suppose!

Its much easier to do it here - by double clicking on the word and pressing the button!! BB


Now how do I get them onto the proper one so that people can look them up?! I don't suppose this is the right place to ask really...

I open the wiki again in a new window so I can see both and then copy and paste .. BB



It going well folks!! Will leave your bits in place to help other people who follow your lead. BB








Experiments with layout & learning how the code works

PLEASE DON'T PLAY BELOW HERE


takes you back to the main page


Examples of code

Click EDIT to see the code

Tim is horrible!!!

Nice big text


Choose the county from the contents page - the red ones aren't started

Choose create new page

Choose Edit

On the threads: [url=http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~tinstaafl/]Norfolk Baptism Project[/url]

On the Wiki

The asterisk is the bullet point


gives an extra line - avoid using this - press enter instead

or highlight and use the button for bold


is a horizontal line or use the button

The ===== is for making a contents - it will do that automatically if there are more than four headings.

Otherwise you need at the top of the page.

Register Office Contact Details
Name of office
Links

Back to Top Back to the top of the current page


TIP: If you don't press enter at the end of each line of the address, it all gets jammed up on one line

TIP: Whatever you do, dont test the link while you are in preview or you lose it all!!!


Was playing with colour - we aren't using it:

ONLINE SEARCH TECHNIQUES

The internet can be a useful source of records and information connected with family history research. There are a number of useful sites available and knowing which to use and how to use them effectively can be confusing.


Example of table layout

ENGLISH COUNTIES
Bedfordshire Berkshire Buckinghamshire Cambridgeshire
Cheshire Cornwall Cumberland Derbyshire
Devon Dorset Durham Essex
Channel Islands and Crown Dependencies

Exploring possible horizontal contents list for a page

Each letter has its OWN page:

_A |_B |_C |_D |_E |_F |_G |_H |_I |_J |_K |_L |_M |_N |_O |_P |_Q |_R |_S |_T |_U |_V |_W |_XYZ


Links WITHIN the same page:

THIS USES THE SECTION HEADINGS SO IT APPEARS IN THE TOC/CONTENTS

A | B | C | D | E | F | G | H | I | J | K | L | M | N | O | P | Q | R | S | T | U | V | W | XYZ


THIS GIVES AN ALTERNATIVE TO HAVING A LONG LIST IN THE CONTENTS (ANCHORS)

A CREATES THE ANCHOR FOR THE LETTER A

B CREATES THE ANCHOR FOR THE LETTER B

Testing Gallery or Clickpic for Main Page
