Thanks guys (and gals). We now have 5 more languages then we had before.

I know I need to do more to call out these topics to those who may not have their multi-language settings correct. I may build a "primary lang" and "secondary lang" fields into the country table so that users from France for example would get a callout to any French posts. As would users from Canada.

Thanks again!
Jim

Peter,
Lol...but there is a tiny loophole in the site policy which states that site ADMINS may use all caps when they need to communicate something important.

Cheers,
Jim

Well all right then.

I know....
Rule 1.
Admin is always right.
Rule 2
When all other rules are in doubt, Rule 1 applies.

LOL....

Sorry Jim but I don' get your point. I'm getting old and I need long explanations for sure to understand some things

Basically when I come to Armorama my intend is to get in contact with a lot of people through a shared language, English whatever form it takes (Oxford English, US English, Pidgin, Globish ...).

If I need to speak to French speaking people I simply use French language forums. So I really don't see the interest of posting here in French.

But again, I'm open to your explanation for such a need.

You need to go to the main Forums page and above the table with six main forums on the right edge of the screen, there is a "button": SET YOUR LANGUAGES. You need to go there and there select English and Hebrew from the list (hold CTRL to select two languages) and click SET LANGUAGES. Then you will see messages in English and in Hebrew - including the one you just added!

Cheers,
Pawel



Pawel,
here is what I get on the main forum page. No Set your Languages button.

This thread is from 2004, so some things might have changed.

I would have thought a language setting would be in the usual user settings.

Gentlemen:

Are there other type style commands we may not know of?

I know when composing a thread response how to create bold face type and italics type and bold italics but are there other style commands we might also have access to?

A "no print" command might be nice - I sometimes try to center a photo on the page or space out two smaller photos side by side. I use reader dots or dashes to push the photo out into the center of the page (using the space bar in this case does not work) but it would be nice to be able to get these spacer characters to not show.

Example:
- - - - - - - - - - - -

The only other things I can think of at this time would be the ability to underline our letters or perhaps a "strike thru" command to show that an earlier statement has been found to be in error.

Thank you

p.s. Have done a fair amount of typesetting, composition and design layout work in my career so I think about things like this.
