'WWW Piclist site'

I have setup a website that recieves the piclist E-Mail using a
customized version
of the Hypermail software.
Since my servers platform is not supported I had to re-compile the
source. This
also provides the access to completely hide the senders E-Mail address
from
the E-Mail headers. If there is an E-Mail address in the text of the
message that
too bad.
This is only expirimental, so dont expect perfection.... Comments and
suggestions
are welcome.
The URL is http://www.428main.com/piclist/

Hi,
The WWW Piclist site looks nice, as a concept, but, need some work. Some
of the messages on this list includs schematics and indented text. take a
look at http://www.428main.com/piclist/0020.html When I read it on the
list it was alot easier to read.

Thanks for pointing this out. There is no question that the site still
needs some work. Your example is a very good one of some of the things
that need to be addressed.
In this particular message the 'table' uses TABS to align the columns.
Obviously the text to
HTML translator does not take this into account and the Web browser does
not display the
the TABS correctly. The tabs are actualy in the HTML.

What is the converter written in? I usually convert tabs to their
appropriate space (I don't always trust tabs). Or you might simple use
the <PRE> tag and I believe the the tags are displayed correctly.
Does anyone else have a problem with the background colors for the
PICLIST
archive? I find the pages very difficult to read. (I'm using Netscape)

I've found palette compatibility problems reading messages in Netscape when
I have Eudora active at the same time. Also have had problems reading some
pages in Netscape when Auto Load Images is turned OFF.

Netscape seems to have a bug when dealing with colour palettes if you
have a windows wallpaper which is a graphic image. What I do is open, then
close another window behind netscapes and the colour palette switches back,
once you are in Netscape and don't go out then it seems OK.

My wallpaper in "None" and my color scheme is stock microsoft. I don't
like to waste time on pretty pictures.

The converter is written in C. And I had the <PRE> option turned off,
I have
fixed this now.
Thanks for your input.

You can get a free program that fixes that - Internet Explorer 3.02 <g>

It isn't free. It costs resources. I think the ding-dongs over in Redmond
think Microsoft's still are the only application running on the machine at
a time. You know, DOS-mode mentality.
Get real!

Unlike you, I will not so easily accept 'stock microsoft' and will customise
it as far as possible. The vast array of 'pretty pictures' I now have provides
for stimulating discussion as my system is often used by my family and
especially
my children - it makes life that much more wholesome and I take every
opportunity
to resist the mechanicalism thrust upon our psyche by the career of programming
microprocessor based products.

Although I'm at least partially serious. When I was using NetScape (Gold
2.something) I was less than impressed at its performance, particularly the
number of system errors it threw. IE3 and NT is my current mix. If you're
using 3.11 or 95, that's more likely your problem.

Gold 2.x was known for that. I only ever used the free version of 2, and
now use 3.0 for 32-bit.

I use too many DOS apps to move to NT yet. When I can find a cheap,
com-port version of a programmer that I like, I'll be able to move over.
Other reason is my second machine (a Compaq laptop) only takes up to 12M
(and it's there), too little for NT.
