Do you mean that all of the stuff we write is kept somewhere in an archive, available to anyone to quote, misquote, plagiarize?
If so, I first of all claim copyright for every word I ever wrote here; second, I deny anyone the right to quote from my commentaries on the list without my written permission, except those who are active list participants and to whom I therefore addressed my comments. Now I'm wondering if the existence of an accessible archive will inhibit my comments? Probably, since access to the list archives to publishing of my comments and I should have the final word about that. I thought we were just a bunch of eccentric intellectuals enjoying contentious conversations that disappear like the morning fog. wc ----- Original Message ---- From: Chris Miller <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Fri, February 26, 2010 10:53:56 AM Subject: REFINE SEARCH FUNCTIONALITY OK -- let's go to: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Question one: where is the button that leads to a description of the list and how a person might subscribe/unsubscribe? Question two: How can one search within a specific field (like subject or sender or date) the way that the FAQ says is possible? ("searches can be limited to a particular email field such as from, date,subject or message") The FAQ also says: "To place a search form on a web page, use the following HTML. Don't forget to replace [email protected] with the listname of interest. <form action="http://www.mail-archive.com/search" method=get> <input type="hidden" name="l" value="[email protected]"> <input type=text name="q" value="" size=25> </form> ..... and I repeat ... this is not information that we users can apply. (and note where the instructions say "Don't forget to replace [email protected] with the listname of interest.") Got it? Somebody here has to have the ability to ""place a search form on a web page" -- and I'm assuming that this person is the same one who connected us to "Mail-Archive" in the first place. And if that person doesn't want to do this work -- perhaps he or she can delegate the task to someone else? Here's the old search page: https://listserv.indiana.edu/cgi-bin/wa-iub.exe?S1=aesthetics-l Can't somebody figure out how to duplicate those functions in our current archive? I am DESPERATE to access the accumulated wisdom of William Conger and Frances Kelly! ____________________________________________________________ Weight Loss Program Best Weight Loss Program - Click Here! http://thirdpartyoffers.netzero.net/TGL2231/c?cp=rnCTOls8akDqUBJAoMX6GwAAJz6c l_zTaptgNR5c8Mer1v9kAAYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAADNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAEUgAAAAA=
