sadness...

so yeah, I've been creating all my files throughout my website using php and having my menu and other features as php includes. However, our index files for MT are .html which means i can't use php includes. Any ideas on how to change the extension through MT? I was successful in getting my archive pages to change, but I can't find a setting for the index file. Any help would be appreciated it would be sad for the code to go to waste. Thanks

Disappearing Blogs

I've been trying to mess around with the style sheet. Whenever I rebuild the style sheet, nothing changes. Then I've decided to rebuild all of the pages, and then all of my entries have disappeared. What should I do? Should I just restart by setting everything back to default?

Blogging

Went to Borders bookstore the other day. Decided to check out the books on blogging. There were only three books available on blogging. One of each. One of the books was "Essential Blogging."

I thumbed through it, and discovered that other than the information about blogging, it also had tips on how to set up and use blogging with Blogger, Radio Userland, and Moveable Type.

Of course, one can attempt to change the look of blog, blog configuration, archiving options by trial and error, or learn it in class. :)

Personal Blogs..What is the deal?

Does anyone else have personal blogs? I just run my mouth off about my daily activities & occasionally toss up a picture or joke. I wouldn't mind seeing how others have gone about it, and for what purpose.

Weblogs

Weblogs sound like a great way to have many people easily participate in the construction and updatng of particular websites. Creating a list of ethics which is mentioned in the site http://www.rebeccablood.net/handbook/excerpts/weblog_ethics.html
may be a good idea, but may not be neccessary. If users of a particular Weblog are taught the proper sighting and crediting policies when it comes to publishing and are trusted members of the business or organization then content problems shouldn't occur. I agree that the writer should point out if they are stating opinion or ideas of uncertainty. Facts on the web should be accurate since the Internet is such a widely used source of information today.
Any works used should be cited and content should be appropriate to the business.

As stated in the source http://www.webreview.com/2002/02_04/designers/index01.shtml
it is much easier to use Weblogs when others need to add content to a site instead of passing around an HTML file in which inexperienced coders may hurt the site while adding their information. Weblogs sound like they have a simple interface in which other people can easily add content without having to change around HTML code. Instead simple text boxes are available which automatically add the inserted content into the code of the page. This can help many businesses and even groups or clubs in which there are many members who may need to post announcements or constantly share ideas about upcoming events. Weblogs can make updating websites much more simple and efficient.
