| Home | Latest addition: “UTF-8” check box |
(Tested using IE8 and FireFox 3.5)
1. By selecting one of the samples from the drop down menu or by clicking or you can choose among the
sample web pages.
2. Click and then to see what the actual web page looks like.
3. Before clicking the button again, the newly created window should be closed by clicking the “X” button in the upper right hand corner.
4. After selecting one of the samples and
carefully noting the HTML code, try modifying the PARAMETERS: and/or the TEXT:.
Then click to see what effect the modification has on
the HTML code in the bottom text box. Then click again in order to see how the actual web page has changed.
5. Click the button in order to begin entering your own web page data “from scratch.”
NOTE: If the “UTF-8” checkbox is checked when is clicked, then the text in the bottom text box, after copy / pasting it into Notepad or a similar text editor, must be saved as UTF-8 (with signature).
NOTE: “At signs” (“&”) are translated into “&,” so if you enter the Greek letter Delta as “Δ,” it with be converted into “Δ,” and will appear as “Δ” on the web page. Instead, it should be entered in one of the following three formats: “Δ,” “[Delta],” or “[#916].” All three formats are translated into HTML as “Δ” and will be displayed on the web page as “Δ.” (See “Table of HTML Special Character Designations” - http://LLBest.com/HTMLSpecialCharacterTable.htm) Other special codes are as follows:[h2]…[/h2] = header (sample #2), [quote]…[/quote] = quote box (sample #3), [url]…[/url] = web address, [b]…[/b] = bold, [i]…[/i] = italic, [copy] or © = ©, [reg] or ® = ®, [trade] or ™ = ™, [sup1] or ¹ = ¹, [sup2] or ² = ², [sup3] or ³ = ³, [dagger] or † = †, Dagger] or ‡ = ‡, … (3 periods) = … (…), "…" = “…,” '…' = ‘…’, ' = ’, and :) = ☻.
NOTE: One thing that you may find annoying about this web page is that if you simply want to scroll through one of the samples in the top text box, it is falsely assumed that you are about to make modifications, so the output (bottom) text box is cleared and “0. User generated” suddenly appears as the current sample selection. To reverse this, simply click .
NOTE: This web page was created using Notepad. Except for the background image file, the keyboard command JavaScript file, and the font / color data JavaScript file, it is completely self contained, and the absence of these three files will not cause any problems. Please feel free to save it to your hard drive using “File/Save as….” Double-click on the newly created “LLBest - Utility - Automatic Web Page Generator” icon (“Text2HTML” icon for Firefox), and make it one of your “Favorites.” It will work perfectly even when you are no longer connected to the Internet, or, heaven forbid, when this web page is no longer available!
Questions, comments and suggestions are welcome.
