Is there any policy or rule for this forum?

Yes, please read the policy page. Messages do not comply with this policy will be removed. The rules listed in the policy are all simply common sense. Please follow them so that this forum can continue to operate smoothly.

Can I put html tags anywhere in my posts?

No. You can not use HTML tags in any field except body of the message.

Why are there colons in the message when I try to post a followup?

Colons appear in the message dialog box when you try to followup up on a message to indicate that those lines are quoting the previous document.

Why didn't my post show up?

Your post most likely did not show up, because your browser did not reload the page, it simply pulled it out of cache. Please reload your browser and it should then appear.

Where can I get the scripts for this program?

The scripts are written in Perl and created by Matt Wright. They are free to anyone who wishes to use them (if you have access to cgi-bin from your web page provider) and you can get them as well as other scripts at: http://worldwidemart.com/scripts/. Enjoy!
