Welcome? WTF? - pd - 13.08.2006

If you wonder why I made that gay Welcome title:
My site didn't have any introduction.

If, for instance, somebody heared about the "RockPatch", looked it up in Google and found my homepage and visited it, he still wouldn't know what's up, cause there were just the news with already-insider information.

IMO, project sites need some introduction as their home page.

pd over.

Or you could just include the news right under the Latest Information tables... Wink Catch me on msn/irc if you need more info.

Edit: c/p error, says 1.07b was released August 13 or 14, 2006 Big Grin 2

oops... thanks for reporting Tongue

I'd just have to php include right?
hm... not too bad the idea

btw, is there any way to put <br>s between news entries like I did on the home page or on the contact page?

RE: A home page? WTF? - DCoder - 13.08.2006

A recommended way would be
Code:
<?php
echo file_get_contents('http://news.renegadeprojects.com/5');
?>
, which is basically the same as include, but it doesn't evaluate the news content as possible php code, which would make your site safer in a (highly unlikely) event of someone managing to post unescaped html/php code as news.

Btw, you're probably looking for css features called padding-bottom or margin-bottom, if I'm reading the question correctly.

P.S., there's a "YR: Frezy²" link in the affiliate list, which should be "YR: Frenzy²".

RE: A home page? WTF? - pd - 13.08.2006

hm... you just typoed a typo!
it's not "Frezy", but "Fenzy" Tongue
fixed... thanks again for reporting!

yeah I'm using that method already for the home page etc.
this way you don't have to hit refresh everytime you load the page...

I'll read through the padding/margin stuff and see what I can do Smile

EDIT:
W00t, margin-bottom:12px on the table = perfect!
