The RWL Dictionary...

[The Lady Shael]

Well, take a look yourself. I was extremely bored today, even though I had a lot of school stuff and online class stuff to do. Urgent stuff which I should've finished two weeks ago, but I didn't feel like doing it so I didn't. And I needed something to do, so I thought, hey, wasn't I planning to compile some kind of RWL dictionary about a year ago? And I remember I certainly did.

So I made one. Stealing pieces from the main site style sheet, of course, for unity. One problem I'm having with the code though, the paragraphs in class "links" (which are the links) aren't being centered, not sure why. Help, please.


So, anyways, I'm hoping some of you are willing to suggest some more terms for the dictionary, which will most likely go into it now that the dictionary actually /exists/. Don't make up terms, I won't put them in. I'm looking for in-game terms, RWL slang, recurring inside jokes, forum-related terms, etc.

 ROFL! I was about to suggest putting in Stomple?, but it's already there!  ;)  

[The Lady Shael]

  :D  How could I not put it in? Funny thing is that I read your sig after I put it in there...^_^

 Instead of CSS why not just use

Code Select Expand

<p align="center"> like you did in the previous two paragraphs.

--- or ---

Another thing I noticed, you don't need to close paragraph tags. And you don't need to insert line breaks between paragraphs, they happen naturally.

Good job for hand-coding it all. ::agrees::

 Sweet, I'm remembered!

newbie: a new player to the game. Usually has the negative connotation that the player is ignorant, unskillful, or annoying.

Should be...

newbie: a new player to the game.
n00b: a name usually used for calling a player ignorant, unskillful, or annoying (not necessarily a new player).  Also commonly used by people (and even noobs) to try and make themselves look good.

 I did try using the align="center" attribute in the tag, but it didn't work, for some weird reason, so I took it out. I'll try it again though, maybe it works now.

Also, those particular paragraphs are displayed as inline elements, so the natural breaks don't apply. And yeah, I'm just used to putting the closing paragraph element, because in my HTML course we're required to use the W3 validator to make sure it's valid HTML and stuff.

[edit] Tried putting align="center" back in...didn't work.

 you forgot to put RWL's GREATEST empress, which is, of course... ME!

lol

[Gen. Volkov]

 LOL. You also forgot cows.

[Aqualis]

 In that case, if there is not special reason why those paragraphs are specifically made inline elements:

Code Select Expand

p.link {
text-align:center;
}
--- and ---

Code Select Expand

<p class="link"><a href="http://www.redwallwarlords.com/">Back to Main Site</a><br>
<a href="http://www.redwallwarlords.com/forums">Back to RWL Forums</a></p>

That gets them centered on my comp.

[EDIT: Possibly add the "Poll for a Prize" things to you list of dictionary terms. There are quite a few of them floating around.]

XHTML says you should. And isn't deprecated?

[Aqualis]

 Maybe, it's been a while since I've checked.

I know XHTML does; I made sure that it was just plain HTML before I said that.

But it doesn't hurt for her to have it there... and wouldn't it be better just to conform with XHTML?

[Aqualis]

 No, it doesn't hurt, I just haven't gotten around to learning XHTML yet. I just pointed that out because it's unneccisary in plain HTML.

And, yes, the center tag is deprecated.

 Learn to use XHTML & CSS and you'll save a lot of time.
