Click anywhere
in this paragraph (!) to see

helpWindow = window.open('null-location','nameishelp',
'width=800,height=600,scrollbars=1,screenX=40,screenY=100,left=400,top=600');

Be patient. some it takes a second or 2
Interestingly, even if you click more than once you only get one window
You must click where there is text !! i.e. not on the right edge

Table clicking :
Putting text or images in a table the full width of the page makes the entire table clickable, onMouseover able...
Neat !
format WITHOUT java script onMouse*** :

 <table... 
<a href=...
<tr style=cursor:hand... 
<td... 
<td... 
</a>
...
</table> 

<table border=10 width=100% cellspacing=20 onclick="alert('You clicked in the TABLE ')" >
<tr onclick="alert('You clicked in the TR ')" width=70% >

width=20%

<td onclick="alert('You clicked in the second TD ')" width=50% > Next Data cell (20%) has only a space beteen the td and /td tags (it doesn't even show a border!) In fact you CAN click in it if you imagine where it is!!!

HTML browers will ignore breaks in the lines of text and "word wrap" based on the current size of the window.
HTML tags surrounded by < and > are usually found in pairs.
Paragraphs are terminated by <p> and the browser will add a blank line
line brakes can be forced by adding <br>. This tag is not paired

If you have a block of text that is PREformated you can use <pre> to start. After the preformated text use </pre> to end, but be careful since this causes the alternate font to be used and if the user has a narrower window then you expect the right side of you prefromated text will be cut off!

The font has been deprecated in favor of the style.
For example <span style=color:red>RED</span>

<h2>this is a Heading level 2 </h2>

Headings add space above an below so you might want to use font sizes instead.

Heading Ruler like below is entered using <hr>

Colors should be used sparingly for emphisis and avoid eye straining combinations.
use < font color=??? > before the colored text and < /font > after.

This image is pulled in by having a GIF and using
<img src=fffff.gif alt="NJ County Map"
Width= 288 height=515 align=right>.

This downloads fast because there are no slight color variations.
(that's what gifs are good for)
It also fades in (interlaced)
