================================================================ Notes ================================================================ ---------------------------------------------------------------- Overview: ---------------------------------------------------------------- This collection of files and directories is intended to allow the information to be: * Organized and viewed conveniently. * Easily added or edited, without requiring any programming knowledge or special software. Only this softwware is required: * A text editor, to create or edit .htm HTML files. * A Web Browser, to view the .htm files. This was tested with Mozilla Firefox v12.0 browser. Not all the contents of the data directories is referenced by the .htm files - feel free to add/edit/etc. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Directory structure: ---------------------------------------------------------------- Level 1: -------- Contains index.htm and the .htm and .txt files for its main sections. You can create a complete clone by simply copying this directory with its sub-directories. Level 2: -------- _Davison\ Contains files supplied by D. Davison, plus .htm files to organize them. _Russell\ Contains files supplied by P. Russell, plus .htm files to organize them. WebInfo\ Contains public files copied from the Internet, plus .htm files to organize them. These are organized into sub-Levels for convenience, e.g.: _Books\ _Maps\ _People\ Burma\ EastAfrica\ ---------------------------------------------------------------- HTML ---------------------------------------------------------------- The .htm files were created "by hand", using just a text editor, and use just simple HTML tags. The only complicated HTML is in some sections that were copied from Web pages. JavaScript is not used. They can likewise be edited using just a text editor (NotePad), if you understand just very basic HTML syntax: A HTML .htm file is just a plain text file that uses "Tags" to control the formatting, and to specify references to images and other .htm files. Most Tags indicate the Start of some particular formatting "block", which continues in effect until the corresponding End Tag is encountered. If you simultaneously view one of these simple HTML pages in your browser, and its .htm file in a Text Editor, then you will see how easy it really is. You can easily learn basic HTML from sites such as these: http://www.w3.org/community/webed/wiki/HTML/Learn https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML When viewing a full-size Image in the Firefox browser, you can easily navigate around the image using these keys, etc.: Cltrl+ = Zoom In Cltrl- = Zoom Out Click = Fit to Screen Click again = Zoom on that spot to full size Ctrl Wheel Up/Down = Zoom-In/Out Wheel Roll Up/Down = Scroll Up/Down Wheel Click = Shows a 4-Direction-Arrow icon: Move your mouse in any direction, the page will Scroll to follow it, the further the mouse is from the icon, the faster the scrolling. Wheel-Click again to reset to normal.
