These are some advanced copy and paste examples to use in skyWriter. Back to Tags

A Portal (How To Create Navigation Portals)

A Portal Index Page     Eighteen Portal Template Pages .

Copy the link below and paste it into the GetURL dialog for a New page in skyWriter. Save it as a new Portal.

http://help.skybuilders.com/Portals/PortalTemplate.html

To use this Portal, you need two source files in the same folder with this page, and a skyBuilders Nav Panel:

  • banner.html - the initial document loaded in the banner frame
  • content.html - the initial document loaded in the content frame
  • A Nav Panel - the initial document loaded in the nav frame
The first Nav Panel you make has ID=1 and the default code loads it into the nav frame. Otherwise, edit the Nav Panel ID to another number (you get this in the skyLink for a new Nav Panel).

Change the src="nav.html" to src="/timelines/Nav.html?DoWhat=generate&SelectedOptionID=1"/ or whatever Nav Panel ID you have made.

You may also edit the Portal source code:

  • To change the banner height - edit rows="110,*" to a number other than 110
  • To change the nav width - edit cols="140,*" to a number other than 140

A Glossary

A Glossary Template.

Copy the link below and paste it into the GetURL dialog for a New page in skyWriter. Save it as a new Glossary.

http://help.skybuilders.com/Glossary/GlossaryTemplate.html

You can modify the appearance of the glossary by substituting another style sheet for http://help.skybuilders.com/Glossary/cssglossary.css.


Style Sheets (How To Create Style Sheets)

Copy and paste these lines immediately after the <title> tag in the <head> section of your document.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://help.skybuilders.com/Pages/CSS/stylesheet1.css">
<style>
  h2, h3, h4 {
   color:#660000;
  }
</style>

The first line creates a <link> to an external style sheet that can be anywhere on the web (if you provide an absolute link).

The <style> tags override the definitions for h2,h3, and h4 in the external style sheet. This is why they are called "cascading" style sheets (CSS).

Styles in the <style> tags override external styles, and if you should have "in-line" styles in the <body> (e.g., <font> tags), these would override both external styles and these styles in the head.


skyFeeds

You can include a web page anywhere inside another page by using a skyFeed. You can also include formatted data like an Events Listing.

Copy and paste this skyFeed tag into your page.

<!-- #include virtual = "/timelines/dtfunctions.inc" -->
<script language="javascript" src="/timelines/skyFeed.html?FeedURL=http://www.yourdomain.com/yourpage.html">
</script>

An Events Listing skyFeed tag is created by first getting a skyLink for the appropriate Listings or timeLines view. You then insert the skyLink href as the FeedURL in the skyFeed tag:

<!-- #include virtual = "/timelines/dtfunctions.inc" -->
<script language="javascript" src="/timelines/skyFeed.html?FeedURL=http://www.skybuilders.com/timelines/index.html?UserNameEmail=Guest&PWString=Guest&skyTime=&ModuleID=3&tLView=Listing&tLSortByItem=False&tLSortByType=False&tLSortByUser=False&tLSortBySeries=False&userTZLID=354&GroupID=11&ItemID=69&ScopeID=17&MenuOptionID=33">
</script>


Multiple Emails

An email link to multiple addresses (put commas between email addresses):

skyBuilders Info

<a href="mailto:info@skybuilders.com,bobdoyle@skybuilders.com,jesse@skybuilders.com?subject=Multiple%20Emails"> skyBuilders Info</a>

Notice the use of the subject attribute in the form of a query string (?subject=Multiple%20Emails). This allows you to place a subject string in your mail header. The "%20" is used to denote spaces between words in the subject string.
