Add <br> at each place where you want a line break.

Try this. Its the way to do a ordered list.

 

<h4>First To Finds</h4>

<ol>

<li>The Sword in the Stone 4-1-08</li>

<li>Human Nature 4-2-08 </li>

<li>Geobiking - Spring Valley 4-2-08 </li>

<li>Geobiker's Rest 4-3-08 </li>

<li>Girl's just want to babble 4-14-08 </li>

<li>Transformers:Ratchet 5-8-08 </li>

<li>Transformers:Jazz 5-8-08 </li>

<li>Little Beaver's Big Adventure - a Cool Drink 5-19-08 </li>

<li>Little Beaver's Big Adventure - Fishing 5-19-08</li>

I'm not HTML expert. What does that do as opposed to the <br> command? I would like to see an example because I think my page kinda sucks. Thanks.

It will look something like the text below.

 

First To Finds

 

1. The Sword in the Stone 4-1-08

2. Human Nature 4-2-08

3. Geobiking - Spring Valley 4-2-08

4. Geobiker's Rest 4-3-08

5. Girl's just want to babble 4-14-08

6. Transformers:Ratchet 5-8-08

7. Transformers:Jazz 5-8-08

8. Little Beaver's Big Adventure - a Cool Drink 5-19-08

9. Little Beaver's Big Adventure - Fishing 5-19-08

Another way to do this would be through the use of a Table I've only done the first two, but you should be able to get the idea. Just repeat the entries <tr> <td>number</td><td>cache name</td><td>date</td></tr> for each new row.

 

<table border="10" bgcolor="#FFFFCC" box="" bordercolor=

"#660000" cellspacing="10" cellpadding="2">

<tr>

 

<th colspan="3" bgcolor="#660000"><font color="#FFFFCC">First To Finds</font></th></tr>

<tr>

 

<td>1</td><td>The Sword in the Stone</td><td>4-1-08</td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td>2</td><td>Human Nature</td><td>4-2-08</td>

</tr>

</table>

Since you have such a short list, I would recommend that you also:

 

Add each FTF you find when you find it to an FTF bookmark list even though that list will always be sorted alphabetically. You can "spoof" the system by numbering them by changing the names using the prefix "00001" "00002" "00003". But, I would really like the powers that be to add a "sort" parameter to bookmarks for date.

 

If you use some statistics programs, it will search your log entries for a particlular string of characters such as "FTF." Make it a practice to NEVER put the "FTF" in any cache that is NOT an FTF for you and to put it in ALL caches that are actually an FTF for you.

 

I have 78 FTF's and 600 some finds. I had about 60 FTF's before I decided to BookMark them.... it was very time consuming to go through all my find logs that had the letters "FTF" in them and toss out the "Gee, I missed FTF by only an hour" or "Joe beat me to FTF again!" Now when I want to log a "just missed" FTF I log "Just missed First to Find by an hour!) ONLY and ALWAYS on my actual FTF finds will I log with the letters "FTF."

 

Justa a hint. Do it early if you want to do it.

are you just typing them in yourself, if so if you put a <br> between each it should fix it, let me know if it works
