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.

I'd be glad to, but I don't seem to be able to find the thread you're referring to. What forum is it in?

Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease. Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions...

I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      Insomnia help

      By nanny marley · Posted

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗
