These headstones were done back in the 1920’s I believe. They certainly are odd looking. On a sunny afternoon there’s not much problem. But lets’ just say it’s a good thing this place closes at 5:30 pm.

I’m thinking in a few more weeks this place is really going to be hopping. Especially with these guys being so expressive . They look like they’ve been standing around for a long time and need a little exercise.

Why did the sun come out and do this just as I was getting ready to take this photo? Is there a message here from the beyond? Here’s a good source for Halloween. Maybe I can find the answer in one of these forums…..

Chapter Five/ Create Your Own Photo Blog
Well, Chapter five in Catherine Jamieson’s book is here and it is indeed about code. So what we can do is break it down into bite size pieces and I will try to simplify it to the point where I start to understand it. This is not going to take long.
A template is simply a pattern that a browser follows when displaying a web page. And it is made up of three elements. One Style or design information. Two. Data placeholder information. Three. Presentation information that combines the first two.
The first uses the dreaded CSS or cascading style sheet. The second uses data. And the third uses HTML which combines the first two.
WWW.createyourownphotblog.com offers a set of templates designed especially to go along with this book. They are free if you purchase the book.
These templates work with two CSS files. One. Photoblog.css. Two. Skin.css. Skins are covered more completely in chapter six so we will have something to look forward to. But photoblog.css is here now and it’s the most important file in the template package. It defines all major elements so that HTML recognizes them. And, finally, both these guys are stored in a directory called CSS that is right next to your site. In my case that is www.davidnotes.com/css/photoblog.css.
Man, that was a little rough but we destroyed the first two pages of this thing. I’m thinking maybe two or three more and we call it a night.
Okay, the CSS files are located in the <head> section of the HTML document. The HTML doc loads it up first, reads it and then loads up skin.css..
Containers store all the elements that make up your basic blog page. I am going to try and take a giant leap forward here and say that the CSS files in photoblog.css define the shape of a sandbox. And the skin files in skin.css are all about what the sand box actually looks like including its color and the thickness of the sides and seats.
The basic sandbox is called blogstylearea. Oh, I get it. It’s called blog style area. Man I thought I was going to have to learn a big bad word for a minute there. And that was going to makemecrazy.
Fortunately, we have now eaten four pages of this bear of a chapter and can go have a drink. If you are still here I want to thank you for going into battle with me. I’m going to go back over this a few times in the coming days. Whenever it feels safe I will then crawl forward some more. I can do this. I feel it. As long as the prograstinationbeast doesn’t get me I will survive.
