I was born and raised within a mile of the Great Lakes in Southern Ontario back when you cold actually swim in them without risking your future gene pool contribution. Used to swim as far as five miles a day. Never took a lesson in my live. Enjoyed it a lot. Then I moved to the Rockiy Mountains where swimming is great (if you are a Polar Bear). The water here is mostly glacier fed rivers and streams. Very cold, so swimming is a special occasion. I do miss the lakes and beachs, but I'm not trading the scenery...

Homosexuality, Right or wrong? I don't know if it is ultimately either right or wrong. (Morally, Socially, or religiously). But I do know that it is not right for me. I am an open minded, small l, liberal who is very comfortable with my sexuality. Vive la difference. Just my opinion.

I have a document which was originally created using ms office word processing with very strict formatting requirements. It is a high level academic paper which I would like to make viewable within a web page complete with the original formatting. I also have it available as a pdf file with the same formatting.Regardless of the format, is there a way to convert this highly formatted document into an html page and retain the formatting without major work?The only way I have been able to do this so far is with the use of a table layout , an iframe, and the client having a copy of the document's format software (either ms office or acrobat reader). None of these are desirable alternatives because the iframe forces the document to open with either the word processor and the iframe is (I think) a deprecated element in html according to w3 standards. Or am I mistaken?And to recode the document into html/css is a nightmare due to the volume and complexity of the document.Any suggestions would be welcome. Thanks.

css code here: #nav {text-align: right;font-family: trebuchet ms, arial, agency;color: #B85C00;font-size: 10pt;padding-right: 16px;} and html code here: <p id="nav"><u> <a href="index.html">Home</a>| <a href="contacts.html">Contact List</a>| <a href="teams.html">Teams</a>| <a href="tourneys.html">Tournaments</a>| <a href="refs.html">Officials</a>| <a href="mailto:youremail@yourISP.com">Contact Us</a> </u></p> creates an in-line nav bar. Try replacing the vertical pipes with your chosen image to see what would happen. Sorry, I didn't try myself, but I would be interested in knowing if it works. Might have to insert before and after your images to space them out visually. Hope this helps. Just so happens that it worked for me. Only thing is, I'm not certain the forum would want me to post the entire page here, so if you were to pm me with your email address, then I will forward a zip file to you containing the full sample page. Hope I can be of some use around here... Well, in case someone else want to view the code, here it is : <p id="nav"><u> <img src="your_image.gif" width="10"> <a href="index.html">Home</a><img src="your_image.gif" width="10"> <a href="contacts.html">Contact List</a><img src="your_image.gif" width="10"> <a href="teams.html">Teams</a></p> You should be able to enhance this paragraph tag with rollover effects by utilizing css rules like Lozbo posted in the first posting. That I didn't try, but I might get a chance to test for that tomorrow. Stay tuned.... And, yes, the a:hover { color: #pick one;bacground-color: #pickone;} does work with this html/css code. So today was not a total waste, I've learned something... thanks for the question. I have enjoyed this exercise and hope it works for you... Notice from BuffaloHELP: Merged as reported

YES, I AM CANADIAN.And having voted in more than a few elections, I am of the opinion that it really doesn't matter which Political Party you vote for. In the end, they all turn out to be politicians. Given the opportunity, I would choose to vote for an Independent Candidate with good credentials who would listen to their electorate, but those creatures are few and far between. Someone a few posts back mentioned their favourite party was a keg party. Yup, sounds good to me....

I don't know that the user can change css files, but by the rules of the cascade, the user can override certain attributes and make their choice become the current setting. The user has the ultimate control by setting certain rules for their browser and the browser rules override the css file. This is a very important aspect of the cascade rules for disabled / visually impaired users. It allows those with handicaps to use the web because by setting the browser rules to suit their impairments, they become less impaired. For example, the font size that you want to use on your web site may be too small for those who are visually handicapped. But, by allowing the browser rules to over ride the web site css rules, the visually impaired users are better able to navigate and use your site. It is a good thing if you happen to be a user who needs the control, but it is a bummer for the web site designer.

Do you know if these tips and tricks also work with the Mozilla Browser? Firefox is based on the same code. There are some really good bits of similar code change instructions over in the forum at mozilla.org . However, I am quite content with the default values it comes with. For those of you who want tweaks to the Firefox or Mozilla Browser, check out the Mozillazine.

You know, I didn't own a computer until I was over 50 years old, yet I've built and managed 5 web sites, I Admin/Moderate a Forum, and I'm learning stuff everyday. I live in a small town that does not have a College or I'd be right along side you taking that course. Yes, there will be things that may not come to you as quickly, but by perservering, and as a result of the extra effort you will have to make vis-a-vis the younger students, I believe you will retain and understand the course content better than those who are able to breeze through it.Good luck and best wishes with the course.

The previous answers might be correct, but I have been told that the googlebots that appear on forums are there to watch the communications and select the ads displayed on the forum pages. If your thread contains information about, say, fishing, you get different ads than a thread on mountain biking. The bot picks up information, then determines the ads to display based on the thread content.At least that is what I was told...

"Ever been to the Rockie Mountains"Every morning. I wake up in the middle of them. Actually, the Western Boundary of them. And yes, they are fabulous. Long term residents take them for granted, but the views, the wildlife, the hiking, fishing, the skiing, snow mobiling, biking, you name it... it is just different with the beautiful scenery, abundant flora and fauna (whatever that is).Drop me a pm and I'll hook you up with some pictures... or local links.I live in Golden, BC, about a one hour drive west of Lake Louise. Best one hour drive in Canada, IMHO.
