"WEBS OF INFO TO CUT & PASTE"

I think I was only on the web for about two weeks when I started wondering how different people did different things with their web sets. Hmmmmmmmm!! 'Wonder how they do that?" Once I started asking questions, I got some very good advice. In the area of the "ART" of cutting and pasting, the only advice I received was from my very good friend Rixxk. As a matter of fact this site would not exist if it weren't for him. I would still have a very "boring" green on black email page, hanging out in chat rooms. The followng is the information "EXACTLY" AS Rixxk sent to me in two seperate Emails. (I'll bet he didn't think I saved it). Other than the time needed to edit this for page submission I dont have the time to correct any of his typos. So here it is in Rixxk's own words::



CUT AND PASTE FROM TEXT:


"O.K. here it is real plain and simple....


1)   Locate the CMD key(bottom left keybord). Now while holding down CMD push the letter F. F=find, use this to locate a starting point on the page you want to copie.

Practice here....find the word "O.K." bye using step 1. if you typed it right, it should have higlighted the first "O.K." word on this page.

2) Now while holding the shift key you can arrow over, or down, is faster to highlight everthing you want to copie..

3) When everyting is highlighted you want to hold the CMD key and depress C.

4) C=copie, you will here the famous clickable chirp, if you have copied successfully...

5) And last of all you would like to paste your copie somewhere, say reply or foward.(i use this process to copie HTML codes and bring them to my signature, no typos thata' way.)

6)   Once your where you wanna paste it, depress the CMD key and push V.

7) V=paste, for some reason or another. Keep in mind you can only CMD C one item at a time, and I think there is a limit on the size..... Also I cannot get urls to copie, that you will need to add to the page if there is an attachment.... .ever notice what happens when you just hold the shift key and arrow over???? It highlights the same way...but CMD F will allow you to highlight somthing on a page you cant get to normally....

Have fun and send loads of mail with out the disturbance of down scrolling....lol

CUTTING AND PASTING WEB PAGES, SOUNDS, IMAGES, ETC:


"Yo big daddy Rix here......You got the sound to work.....Great....Heres a page to add some REAL AUDIO to your text, if you want....You used a .MIDI file...Those work but REAL AUDIO is the bomb(when its not choppin up)......save this page and you can choose any song from it, Heres how.....


(1)   'Click' on the song you want....

(2)   Use your "GO TO" button (top right) to find the address of the song you chose.

(3) When the screen pops up 'click' on "SHOW LAST"

(4) Then Highlight the whole address that appeared by simply holding down the "SHIFT" key and arrowing over the entire address......NOTE if you let go of the shift key, you'll have to start over.

(5) Once you have the entire addee highlighted you want to copy it...Find the "CMD" button(bottom left of keybord)..Press and hold this button while strikeing the letter "c"...NOTE if done correctly you will here the classic 'chirp'.

(6) O.K. now were gettin somewhere....next is the tricky part....You have saved the addee (or whatever you highlighted) to you memory...now you can travel with it. Memory can only hold one highlighted item at a time. Use the "CMD" button and the letter "v" to paste you clipping in you signature, or e-mail, or anywhere you want to....

(7) In this case it's the addee for your music so highlight it, save it, and paste it in your signature.....NOTE wherever your cursor is when you push "CMD" "v" it will print it there....so make sure your lined up in you sig. where you want it......

(8) SNAP A COLD BEER AND CELEBRATE!!!!!!!! YOU JUST LEARNED HOW TO CUT AND PASTE WITH RIX ON YOUR WEBTV.......

(9) advanced option.......This is tricky......Say your in a webpage that you want to copie and there is no curser to highlight the text you want copied.....Locate your "FIND" button (top right) strikeing this key pops up a "WORD SEARCH"... now type the word that you want to start your highlighting process with.(for example.....Say you wanted to copy all of lesson (9) on this page.....go to find and type "(9) Advanced". This will auto highlight (9) advanced  for you.

To continue to highlight(member "shift" and arrow over or down is faster."

(10) hmmmmm..... Now say you got the word (9) advanced written on the page three times.....the puter will auto highlight the first one on the page then you just use "CMD" and "g" to choose which (9) advanced options you want to copy......

Easy as pie my friend......I use this to copy e-mail fowarded from 50 ppl...this pastes it fresh on "MY" own new page.......woooo hoooooo

Also excellent for copying HTML tags...No typos that away.....

Call if you need any other help and enjoy "
