Thank you for the good idea. What exactly is a hyperlink, and how do you do it?

When you hit 'reply', you'll see a few icons above the edit window where you enter your response. There's the button for "bold", "italics", "underscore", "strikeout", "font color", and then "hyperlink". The macro for hyperlink pops up a user window, when you click on it, that asks you to enter the address, or URL, then the text you want to have that link.

So, for instance, if you wanted to put a link to google in your reply, you'd click that button, enter the url (I usually cut and paste from another window, but in this case it's simple: http://wwww.google.com) at the first prompt, then enter "google" in the second prompt. When you click "ok", it will enter the code for the hyperlink in your entry. (alternatively, you could enter this code yourself, when you get used to using it.)

in this case, of linking to your own post, you'd need to write the other post first, so you have a URL you can copy and link to, and then put it wherever you want to reference.

The video appears fine on my Firefox browser, but it's cropped on IE7 (microsoft really messed things up with this upgrade). I wrote a message to the webmaster to see if there's anything they can do about it.

Regarding Video Issues....

Ok, I can view the video fine. Nini can view it fine. Anyone else? And if anyone else is successful, what browser and version are you using? I use Firefox and know for a fact that Nini does, too. She and I viewed the video fine. I tried to open it in Internet Explorer to answer questions in a pm I was sent, and guess what....In IE I get the little talking mouth video, too :lol:

I've posted directions for downloading the free Firefox browser here.

We can continue discussion of video/browser issues there.

LATER.....

Haha! Gamecreature posted while I was composing this. Yep, he's right, but it's not just a problem with IE7, although that answers my question. I wondered if the problem continued in IE7. It does. :blink:

Celiac Central may be able to correct this. But I suspect they don't typically embed video, so they may or may not invest time in making it work. I hope they don't remove the links!

I am taking a web design course at my local community college, and my instructor told us last Wednesday that IE7 is terrible, and the college has told everybody that they're not allowed to download it, because it would mess up a lot of stuff. Just in the nick of time, because when I got home, there was my little upgrade icon (I will absolutely NOT enable automatic updates, they tell me what they've got, and I decide if I want it), telling me it wanted me to okay the download of IE7. Needless to say, I told them to not ask me again. Phew!

I am now going to watch the videos, as I haven't had time before (on Firefox, which is my default browser).

Any way to uninstall IE7? We installed it and I don't like it. I finally was able to listen to it and see the little 1" x 2" box.

It said in my little window that gave me the choice to download it, that you can uninstall it if you don't like it. Go to your control panel, click on the 'Add or remove programs' icon, find IE7, click on it, click on uninstall, and you should be able to get rid of it again.

I just watched both the videos, and was very impressed. Even though, yes, improvements could be made, all in all it was fantastic. It was done in a very positive, informative way. I really, really liked it.

Wow--I decided at the last second not to install the IE7 (I'm not computer savvy, and had no idea what I was doing) and just listened to the second broadcast.

Thanks, Ursula--I'll know for next time :)

Not to derail the thread, but here's some browser answers for you.

The rumor is that IE7 is designed the way it is to drum up support for the new Vista OS that's due out soon. While it certainly appears rushed (it ignores more than a few established web standards) I can't imagine how this would make anyone want to rush out and buy Vista.

There is a work-around available on the IE website that will let IE7 mimic IE6. Alas, it does not fix the issue with the video playback on the Celiaccentral site. Neither does downloading the latest version of Quicktime.

You can uninstall IE7 and go back to the earlier browser if you like. Instructions are available on the IE website. I'm probably going to switch over to Firefox - it has all of the bells and whistles of IE7, with fewer headaches. The only thing I'll miss is FTP support, but Microsoft made a mess of that in IE7 as well. I'll just use Network Neighborhood to access my FTP sites.

      Knowing what to do when feeling unwell.

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed...

      Thanks. Since the back and forth and promises of review and general stalling went on for more than six months, the credit company will no longer investigate. They have a cutoff of maybe six months.

      Knowing what to do when feeling unwell.

      By Me,Sue · Posted

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed that I feel nauseous after possibly being glutened. I think the thing that I have got better at is knowing what to do when I feel wiped out after a gluten 'episode'. I drink loads of water, and have just started drinking peppermint tea. I also have rehydration powders to drink. I don't feel like eating much, but eventually feel like I need to eat. Gluten free flapjacks, or gluten free cereal, or a small gluten free kids meal are my go to. I am retired, so luckily I can rest, sometimes even going to bed when nothing else works. So I feel that I am getting better at knowing how to try and get back on track. I am also trying to stick to a simpler menu and eat mostly at home so that I can be more confident about what I am eating. THANKS TO THOSE WHO REPLIED ABOUT THE NAUSEA .

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.
