Hi everybody!
I have updated the blog template today and this post is about the trials and tribulations I experienced during this small little revamp.
I started in good faith using a template I received from a collegue. He had meade the changes I wanted, as my own ability with HTML is virtually non-existant. He instructed me about how this should be done.
"You have to delete the old template entirely and replace it with this one". That seemed simple - I deleted the template and replaced it with the new one. I updated the blog and reviewed it - and looked at the OLD blog! This happened two times more, until I realized that the blog I viewed was in a different browserwindow! - Curtain please....
Having realized what a twit I was - I started on the part I really dreaded - updating the links etc in the template. "For the links you only put in the html for the site you wanted the link to bring the reader to. For the PIF4P site the link is; - PIF4P - a funded proposal
Another cool feature with HTML I learned today is; - I do not need to loose the reader from my blog if he/she clicks one of the links, as I can instruckt their browser to open the link in a new browser window. When they close that window they will come back here. Go to the PIF4P link on your rigth, or use the link above, and try it now!
While you're there take a look around, and listen to the message from the founders, it's really cool!
By the way, the code to open the link in a new window is target ="_blank".
Sorry about the diversion about HTML today, but I was exited of managing this so I had to tell you :-). If you look in tomorrow I will show you how I managed to muddle up the easy procedure of including Adsense in my Blog. As you see I finally managed but it took a while
See you tomorrow!
PS. I appreciate your comments to the posts. I have turned on word verification so it is not possible to make posts using automatic systems. But any human being is welcome at any time!
