If this is not convenient please let me know. >Thanks >Helen dear helen certainly i could post the subscription instructions to the PIEnet list no problemmo i'm curious about how many of us don't use the wwweb... and why... helen, you have access to both an e-mail software program and a wwweb browser software program since they are combined in the aol 'package' ... i wonder how many of us have only an e-mail program and no wwweb browser? e.g. if i type in the wwweb address of the PIEnet list subscription instructions here: <http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/Village/6263/pienet/subs/index.html> how many of us can 'read' it as a wwweb site address? = a URL ? [nerdese for Universal Resource Locator] = a hyper-link ? = is it 'clickable' ? = can you double-click on it with your mouse and thus 'jump' directly to it ? or would you have to "copy and paste" the address from your e-mail program to your wwweb browser program before being able to access it? i use eudora lite as my e-mail program and it recognizes every URL address as a hyper-link; if i double-click on the URL with my mouse, eudora starts up my netscape web browser automatically just curious, is all janet who has just attached a mobile-mini-pig-pen to the wwwinnebago for porky ------------------------------------------------------------ janet paterson 52 now 41 dx 37 onset [log in to unmask] 613-256-8340 PO Box 171 Almonte Ontario K0A 1A0 Canada a new voice <http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/Village/6263/> ------------------------------------------------------------
