SE
HTML
|
|
Practice html found on this page, or any other, using an off-site practice board.
However, as SE often adds personalized variables to code,
notably unexpected
<br>s which can break strings, a final check could be
sending yourself a private message by replacing my 27543
account number with your own here.
For further
convenience, paste the following code into your profile, again
replacing my with your own account number, so you always have a direct link handy:
Send
<a
href="http://sensibleerection.com/messages.php?action=new&receiver_id=">me</a>
a
private message.

~ Whatever is inside the quotes is the image presented. Be
sure to close quotes.
~ Host your own images instead of hotlinking from someone else's, as
you'd then be using their bandwidth without permission, and hotlinked images often show up broken on SE. For image
hosting, I
prefer a Photobucket
account, though Imageshack
allows quick
public hosting without any account at all. Both upload from
saved file as well as from another URL. If you do hotlink an
image hosted from a stranger's website, it's courteous to also link to their site as advertisement.
~ Use JPG, GIF, and PNG files. Gifs are mostly for text and
animation.
~ Keep images to a reasonable size as large files drag slower modems and
usually fill the screen. I aim for under 400KB (1MB for animation), or 480h x 680w pixels

~ Always add http:// within
the "quotes" inside the <chevrons>.
~ Whatever
is inside the quotes is where the reader is sent, so be
absolutely sure to close quotes.
~ Everything inside the carrots is hidden from the reader as html code.
~ Nothing outside the carrots affects code, so write whatever you want
there.

AUDIO
Embedding
Embedding audio to SE is
probably best using flash-based MP3 Reader, where one would only need to use this code, replacing XXXXX with the mp3's online URL address: <embed allowscriptaccess="never" flashvars="mediaURL=&mediaWidth=500&" height="17" quality="high" src="http://www.fileden.com/files/2008/1/13/1697003/MusicPlayer.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="502" wmode="transparent"></embed>
example:
<embed allowscriptaccess="never" flashvars="mediaURL=http://www.fileden.com/files/2008/1/13/1697003/T.%20Nathan%20Roane%20-%20Cowboys%20are%20Secretly%20Frequently%20Fond%20of%20Each%20Other%20%28Willie%20Nelson%29.mp3&mediaWidth=500&" height="17" quality="high" src="http://www.fileden.com/files/2008/1/13/1697003/MusicPlayer.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="502" wmode="transparent"></embed>
Another option would be to simple link directly to the file, allowing people to do with it as they wish.

FIX a broken comment
example:
<a
href="http://sensibleerection.com/>Sensible
Erection</a>
When an SE user
forgets to close quotes (the
blinking quotation above, for example) within
a comment, it screws up the entire post. To fix, open your Internet
Explorer browser, login to SE, and find the comment with the broken
link. Save the broken reply page as 'html only' to your
desktop. Open that saved file in wordpad or notepad or
similar
editor, then find the missing code and finally add it within the
editor. Next, directly after the <head> tag at
the top, add:
<base
href="http://sensibleerection.com/comment.php/55960/765660">
...but
replacing this http:// address with that of the broken
comment.
Save the fixed file.
Open this fixed file on your desktop within your standard
browser. In the
now usable comment box, add
">">">">">"> and
then whatever witty banter. Submit. This should fix
open
tags/quotes for most browsers.

THEMES to Bulk Tweak SE's Layout, Add Features
SE_Butler is Naruki's "multipurpose script intended for Opera browsers (but also works with Firefox+GM). It works on SE post pages, making mod/reply stuff a lot easier, and allowing you to focus on new comments if you like."
Sensiblefacial from Rojo^ is a Firefox alternative which also adds features such as nesting comment trees, adding color, and mod flexibility.

EXTENDED
embeds and hotlinks
Adding html to the
extended of posts can be tricky, as urls are automatically made links
by SE specifically to aid in massive porn dumps. To trick for embedding
images and videos in the post extended, use normal html such as
described elsewhere on this page (or provided by the host: youtube,
photobucket, dailymotion, etc) and remove all 's
from each address.
example:
<div><object
width="480" height="381"><param name="movie" value=""></param><param
name="allowFullScreen"
value="true"></param><param
name="allowScriptAccess"
value="always"></param><embed src=""
type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="480" height="381"
allowFullScreen="true"
allowScriptAccess="always"></embed></object><br
/><b><a href="">T.
Nathan Roane - Let's Go out
Dancing</a></b><br
/><i>Hochgeladen von <a href="">composernate</a></i></div>
