There have not been a lot of MOTD messages over the last few months. This time around, I'd like to announce that I wrote and installed a new ad system today. You shouldn't notice much of a difference, apart from some short server outages earlier on tonight. Oh, and there's a new banner, visible in the navigation bar on the right. Apart from that, my life has been pretty busy; working fulltime, training most days of the week and [this might come as a surprise] working on script updates on a local Apache server. They should eventually be available online for further testing, but now might be the time to make requests for new features. :) HTML4/CSS support is on my list, and won't disappear, so start bugging Amiga browser authors to finally support these long-established standards. :) Visitors will still be able to use all kinds of browsers, in fact even more so than before, it's just that the layout might look more primitive on HTML 2/3.2 browsers (read: there will be an almost complete seperation of content and layout, the latter mostly implemented via Cascading Stylesheets).

MOTD 10/Oct/2002 : Comment 29 of 29 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Nomad of Norad on 16-Oct-2002 00:05 GMT | Another thing that would be useful to impliment:
I've noticed that on alot of peecee IM and IRC clients, if you simply type in a URL, even without the HTTP:// stuff in front of it as long as it starts with www., will automatically turn it into a clickable link. In other words, all I
have to do is type www.whatever.com (without surrounding it with <A HREF=""></A>) it will hilight it and allow others to just click on it.
Mind you, without the http:// stuff in front of it, if you DON'T prepend a www. to that whatever.com, it doesn't make it clickable, but does make it clickable if you prepend it with http://, i.e. if the URL is something like users.whatever.com instead of www.whatever.com (which is how alot of ISPs do their users' websites), you can still make it show up as a clickable link by simply typing http://users.whatever.com.
