Text File

Hi

I'm a little confused when they say after posting a comment we must copy and paste on a text file. Must we like past in Microsoft word or is a text file created??

Hey,

According to the Tut Letter, you need keep a separate page as part of your website (portfolio) containing all your forum posts, so yeah you can keep it in Microsoft Word if you want, I just keep mine in notepad.

But obviously when you make your portfolio and you add in your forum posts, you are most likely going to stick it into whatever text editor (still notepad++ in my case) you use to create your html code in for your website.

So basically, just make sure it's all store so that when you're ready to display it, you have it freely available for yourself

Hope this is the right response And I hope it helps.

Yes. You can copy and paste from a text file into a HTML file - if you copy from Word into a HTML file, depending on the editor, then lots of excess Microsoft code maybe added. Do not worry too much about this - copy wherever you want to.

Hi Guys

Can you please tell me does this mean any comments, questions and suggestions posted on the forum. Do I need to put the dates as well?

Thank you so much. I got it. Yes everything u've posted be it questions or comments. not sure if dates are important

Yes, dates as well.

Is the format of our "Active Participation" page important at all? Because I have each post nicely posted in tables (one table per post) on my web page following the style of my page. It has the post number (in order of course), subject, time (including date) and the post. Would that count as a "numbered list that contains a copy of all your posts to the forum" as stated in the tut letter?

Yes, that is a numbered list. Of course the nicer you make it the better...!
