Hi all. I was going to try a two image table showing two of my telescopes. I learned HTML 3.2 and 4.0 (Cobra) but I am behind the current versions. I just use Notepad for creating and editing plus it makes image calls from my own computer for the home Start Page I wrote years ago (with large refractor scopes in the heading
). However this phpBB coding and editor really has me spinning and I am not sure how to proceed, but I sure would like to try something on the test forum. Here is the coding for our home computer start page:

Six telescopes, lots of eyepieces, but plenty of dark clouds lately.
