Yay! I am back. ©cyoes
I missed not blogging. Really. There's a big difference between having a decent thought or idea or reaction and carrying it around in your head, and writing it down. I'd gotten into that habit. But breaks are good, you know. That's why we invented vacations.
I did have a bit of a freakout over seeing my blog's stats showing the weirdest Google searches finding stuff I was writing for a small community. I knew that writing on the web is really writing for anyone, but I didn't really feel it until I saw evidence of it. That recognition will change some of my writing. That's OK. I made this a non-member site. It just seemed the thing to do, at least this week.
Lloyd cannot see this site. He says IE and Netscape on his Mac don't finish loading. The Mac 7600 a few feet from me here loads up to about 84% before it stops, hangs, and I have to force quit. The G4 across the way is sluggish; it finally loads, but that's not good enough. I had this problem with some other sites I recently built on interactiveu. I used an HTML Validator that pointed one unclosed tag I made. The rest of the bad coding is Manila's. Manila does put out a lot of nonstandard code. For example, HTML validators just don't like the Manila calendar. I've cleaned up the template for this site to have some very standard, consistent, simple HTML. Nothing fancy. Lots of tables, though; maybe too many? I don't know what I'm going to do about this. Any suggestions? One thing I might do is go back to the default theme and see what happens. But no time now.
(Moments later, at 4:40, I've stashed my <smirk>gorgeous</smirk> handmade theme away, the one that Netscape didn't like, and restored the default. Works like a dream now, right? But it's so dang ugly! Gotta build a new look now. Hmm, what was wrong with that template I built?)
Yes, I look exactly like this...
