I registered markdown.io for a year but did nothing with it during that time, so let the registration lapse. I'm happy to reregister this domain name (or to register a different one) and to point it at the appropriate nameservers. David On Monday, 22 October 2012 at 8:24 PM, Boris Le Ninivin

I only ever dealt with .tk domains as a teen when I couldn’t afford a real domain, and they would basically iframe your real site and add advertisements. It wasn’t a good experience. I trust things may have changed since then, but I still don’t ever see or trust .tk domains. On Oct 24, 2012,

I've not tried to use a redirect to hide another website's address. I use their DNS instead, and I see no ads... But I use adblock, so I'm not sure. Boris On 10/24/2012 07:46 PM, Alan Hogan wrote: I only ever dealt with .tk domains as a teen when I couldn't afford a real domain, and they

Hello everyone, First off, I'm new to this list, so if this has been dealt with before, I apologize. I was unable to find a solution in Google. My question is, how do I insert a blank line between blockquote paragraphs so that they are visually separate? I often need to put two or three

Folks, my apologies. Those links seem to break after running through the listserv. Below, I use my URL shortener to give you un-breakable links. My original suggestion to Thomas: http://ajh.us/bmd1 The actual link to the funny lunamark behavior: http://ajh.us/bmd2 Alan smime.p7s Description:

Another (ugly) option: blockquote quote 1 /blockquote blockquote quote 2 /blockquote blockquote quote 3 /blockquote This is no good, though, if the quotes contain markup of their own, as you'll be forced to write that in HTML too. David On Wednesday, 24 October 2012 at 1:27 PM, Waylan

Scott Granneman, 2012-10-24 23:37: Well, if we’re going with ugly, what’s wrong with the good ol’ fashioned non-breaking space? I for one feel that an empty HTML comment looks slightly less ugly than the text nbsp; in the Markdown text. But as I said, it's a matter of taste. :) Apart from
