Subj: Re: [kl] Very OT - HTML Question
Date: Sun, 06 Mar 2011 12:45:33 -0500
To add to what Mark posted, all of my pages are created with "plain vanilla" HTML, or better put, years ago I downloaded a bare bones web page from somewhere, imported it into Word Perfect as a text only page to see what was there and began to create my own pages, learning HTML as I went along.
It is far more advantageous than depending on some proprietary web production software product which brings out incompatible annual updates.
Anyway, for anyone who is interested, go to my home page www.csudh.edu/oliver/oliver.htm
click on "view" at the top, then click on "page source" on the drop down menu and you will see the bare-bones html which makes up the page.
If you right click on the page itself, you can download the page source and go from there.
Make sure, as you edit the text file holding the html codes, that when you save everything, you must save it again as a txt file or everything will be screwed up.
I do this off line and then upload to my sites using WS_FTP95.
Just about the time I begin to think this sequence is a bit of a pain I begin to hear horror stories about abortive attempts at creating web pages using the standard web-creating software programs.
Go to www.csudh.edu/oliver/clarmusi/clarmusi.htm and view the Huntington Beach Occasional Consort in rehearsal! 8-)

I know I might find more interest in an HTML forum, but I don't currently belong to one, so I thought I'd ask here before I look to unfamiliar forums. Among the many hats I wear, one is that of webmaster for a reading orchestra that meets weekly. Each week I post the next rehearsal's repertoire on the home page and we keep both a future schedule and an archive, both database-driven, on a separate page. There are of course a number of composers whose names have non-English characters in their names. This week Dvorak is the problem. Although there is a Unicode value for the 'r' with a caron (as it should appear in his name), when I try to include the code in the HTML, the wrong character comes up (a capital Y with an umlaut). I have not found a way to put the accented 'r' into the web page. There are others that cause similar problems. Is there another character set - the <head> section of each of our pages specifies "charset=iso-8859-1" - I could use that would work in U.S. browsers but include these (mostly Central European) accent marks? Thanks in advance. Karl_____________________________________________
