Even more weird is that I did not think I added my message to this thread, but to the snafu one. More checkbox tests: Red Green Blue

Hey, a checkbox appeared in the post, way cool!

Checking the Phorum phorum, it looks like there is a section in the site's template that needs to be included: < quote > post_form.tpl email_reply} checked="checked" {/IF} /> {LANG->EmailReplies} don't forget the tr above and below it. < end quote >

Katherine, maybe this site has what you are looking for: Rilke's work is already in public domain (he died in 1926), but the English translations are probably not. Nevertheless I found this site through google: It has many translations by different translators (Bly and Mitchell included). Hth, V.

Do not go gentle into that good night by Unknown Author Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Though wise men at their end know dark is right, Because their words had forked no lightning they Do not go gentle into that good night. Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight, And learn, too late, they grieve it on its way, Do not go gentle into that good night. Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light. And you, my father, there on the sad height, Curse, less, me now with your fierce tears, I pray. Do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light. This poem is by Thomas Dylan..just so you know...

Reading the posts on the Phorum forum, it looks like there is a template file (.tpl) that controls the background color, not accessible to ussuns, that is. Still, we have a lot more toys with this version than the last one. I have not set up a login account yet, so I don't know if the 'new' flags on unread messages is gone or not. Perhaps someone who logs in knows? I definitely think the default after posting should return one to the 'message list' page (used to be goto top), but I don't know how others feel about it.

When Peter gets weary and such, he Withdraws, but he still keeps in touch; we Can listen today And still hear him say, "I love E-mule so muchly, so muchly."

>Hugh, why won't the background colors (bg) code work here. >Does that have to be set for the whole page? Dunno, but I will check around the Phorum pages to see what I can find. I see they have a Discussion section where the question could be posed as well. Looking at the Source of this page, I see commands such as, "textarea { background-color: White; color: Black;" These probably set the page requirements, but I will have to check further.

Hugh, why won't the background colors (bg) code work here. Does that have to be set for the whole page? Les

Hugh Clary — Wed, 01 Jun 2005 01:06:59 +0200

Looks like 'someone' neglected to turn off the blue text color tag. Blue On Yellow Test Oops, that's green on white - weird. Needs more experimentation. Testing Pre tag for indents: When the lord of the manor's factotum Was kicked by a mule in the scrotum, His words of abuse Were rather profuse, But decorum forbids me to quote 'em. Yeah, that works. Just put < pre > before the text, then < / pre > after the text to preserve the 'preformatted' text. Ditch the spaces in the pre tags for it to work correctly when you do try it yourself.

drpeternsz — Tue, 31 May 2005 15:01:37 +0200

I would like to use indentation without too much technical input on my part so I could experiment with spacing in my poems again. I gave them up when I started posting to the forum because the html notation was too cumbersome for my sensibilities. Peter
