  I belive in GoodWill!
 
I just wanted to share this quick story. I was happy with the clearance sales at Wal-Mart and Target but that was not enough. Last night my wife and I took a trip to the local GoodWill.

Why do I even click the preview button if I am not going to make sure everything is correct? Duh. While I am here is there anyway to make a link in the posts? I wanted to make 5987 the link but it would not work when I did the <a href> tag. Ed (23 years ago, 19-Jan-01, to lugnet.general)

(...) I suspect the actual links get stripped out at least in part because not everyone reads lugnet on the web-- one of the really uber-cool genius things about lugnet is that it's accessible via email and as a "usenet" style news server, as well, (...)

  Shortcut linking for web interface (was: I believe in GoodWill!)
 
There are several useful ways to quickly make links that work in the LUGNET Web reader. I believe this is XML. EXAMPLE 1 To link to a set by number type the word "set" followed by a colon and the set number witin arrow brackets without any spaces (...)
