+bmwman Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Hello All, I have had to move my one and only cache rather quickly. It's at the side of a Motorway service area lorry park, under some trees - I adopted it earlier this year, but I've had problems with stuff going missing, and the lorry drivers find it easier to use the area beneath the tree's as a toilet, rather than walk to the main building, [and it's not just for a "leak"] Fortunately, the site services manager knows all about geocashing and was very receptive to the move, although the cache is now exceptionally easy to find, but it's in a far more sanitary and secure place, and it's particularly easier for those, [sometimes older and less nimble people], on short stops in the coach parking section. I've written a new "blurb" in the Geocache Description section, but I cannot get it to accept line breaks, paragraphing etc. There is mention of "HTML", which I gather it needs to see before it will obey my commands - could somebody please point me in the right direction for a "Total idiots guide to tryping in HTML", please?

+Calypso62 Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 I use the following online HTML editor to create my cache pages. I find it works great. Just click on the four arrows button to maximize the page..... http://www.html.am/html-editors/online-html-editor.cfm Quote Link to comment

But HEY Groundspeak, one minor bug on that page: The sample hyperlink result shows an invalid URL. Only in the example. Actual cache descriptions do work properly. Googling for the exact words ""bing to my strow" produces exactly one result, this thread. Quote Link to comment

I would rather have another arrow in my quiver than an extra string on my bow, but I'm only about 3/16 Native American. Maybe having extra strings is an English thing? 1 Quote Link to comment
