Ping

This was posted at about 5:37 AM on Fri 18 Jan 2008, to see if signing in with BlogAlert will work. I used the signup form on that page, and if it does work, there is a widget available that can be added to my blog.

The claim is: updates are delivered daily. I did the sign-up and clicked on the confirmation link at about 5:32. Good luck!

P.S. Used the front email address for this first test. Should use another to test if add widget. Should also investigate how easy it is to unsubscribe.

P.P.S. Entered the URL corresponding to the feed icon in the location bar when I signed up: http://bjkeefe-test.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default

If that doesn't work, go back and try: http://bjkeefe-test.blogspot.com/atom.xml

Indenting text without BLOCKQUOTE or stupid list tricks

This is the normal layout for a paragraph of blog text. This is the normal layout for a paragraph of blog text. This is the normal layout for a paragraph of blog text. This is the normal layout for a paragraph of blog text.

This text should be indented. This text should be indented. This text should be indented. This text should be indented. This text should be indented. This text should be indented.

Here, the styling is done inline, using a DIV tag and a different amount of indenting. NB: DIV tags go outside the P tags.

Back to normal. Back to normal. Back to normal. Back to normal. Back to normal. Back to normal. Back to normal. Back to normal. Back to normal. Back to normal.

This new technique might be used to indent the attribution line in our blockquote style, as seen here. Will have to get used to adding a BR at the end of the quoted text.

Here's an example of the new blockquote styling (should be little apparent difference, but the code is cleaner).

A note on positioning

Suppose you want to float some text around two images, and you'd like the second section of text to start alongside the second image. I'm not sure if this is entirely right (although it does validate), but putting this line in between the two sections seems to do the job:

<div style="clear:both;"></div>



The text in italic should be aligned as desired, no matter the font or window size changes.

Note that I added a couple line breaks to move the text-image sections farther apart, but omitting them doesn't change anything.

This text should be below everything, courtesy of another <div>.

Update: changed code slightly: images now within the <p> block, and <br>s used for separate paragraphs in specific section.
