Then, in the 'footer' section you need to add the following: </td> </tr> </table>

Question #3:

Why can't I put spacing or carrage returns in my postings?

Answer #3:

The reason is that we left the HTML language in so you can edit it yourself If you don't know anything about HTML you could place a "<PRE>" before your text and a "</PRE>" after. Just remember to do a carrage return at the end of the text window or your text will expand the spaces alotted Another way is to enclose all paragraphs in "<P>" and "</P>" respectively. This is add line feeds after and before the paragraphs. "<BR>" also works in this format. "<BR>" is a carrage return, that works the same as the "Enter" key would.

Question #4:

How do I add pictures to my log?

Answer #4:

Standard HTML

<IMG src='http://www.livelog.com/images/link.gif'> Links are as follows: <A href='http://www.livelog.com'>Link me!</a> Picture Links: <A href='http://www.livelog.com'><IMG src='http://www.livelog.com/images/link.gif' border=0></a>

Question #5:

When I preview the sides of the log remains the old style, why is this?

Answer #5:

Previewing the style changes what is in the style text area, what you are seeing on the sides is created in the header and footer text areas. If you want to change you currently have to do this manually.
