Bookmarks and Home pages are now active. To create a bookmark, go to the bottom of an article. You'll find a "Bookmark" link there next to the "Post Comment" and "Private Reply" links. Click it and it will save your bookmark. You may install your home page through the setup page. An additional setup nav button is there for the home page. Right now you can also review and delete bookmarks through that same page. I might break that off onto it's own page, but we'll see. I'm not sure how often people will be deleting bookmarks and if it's a rare occurance, I may leave it as is. You can see the bookmarks and home pages of others by clicking on their screen name when reading a thread. Everyone's screen name is hyperlinked right now whether they've set up a home page or not. I may condense that so only those with home pages will have their names hyperlinked. In creating a home page, you may preview your work just like when you preview an article or comment when posting. But one difference between previewing articles/comments and previewing homepages is that the infamous tool that checks HTML formatting for correctness is used on homepages between previews. This has the benefit of making the preview show you exactly what the finished product will be. On the other hand, it will also rearrange the carriage returns within your HTML coding within the text box where you type/paste your homepage, so making subsequent tweaks may be a little tricky. (This is because the HTML formatting tool that does the wonderful work also erases all the carriage returns. The ones that you see in your HTML afterwards are newly inserted in best guess fashion, such as before and after all the < p> codes and after all the < br> codes). If this sounds confusing try it out and you'll see what I mean. Please let me know of any bugs. Thanks.

Thanks Christine. What are the chances of (further) screwing with the "bookmarks" ? Just having a flat file for this is great, don't get me wrong.. but being able to organize them would be wonderful. (I store allot of these, on multiple computers.. I'm sure others post from work also, and that makes the browsers "bookmark" feature problematic, as they are scattered between home, work, mom & dad's, etc. You eventually stop saving them because they're all over the place.) It would be helpful if: You could add external url's. Move them around, so as to arrange them into categories. (Up, down, so on.) Mark them up, to help dilenate between categories. (Tags like - HR, UL, P, B, etc, would do that.) ? Regards.
