Tags are a relatively new feature on vBulletin forums, and from looking at the tags which have been added to threads so far it looks like a short tutorial might be needed. What are Tags? Tags are metadata keywords. This means that they are data about data, in other words they describe content. Why use Tags? Tags have several functions: They let members and search engines find content by keyword, They give a brief overview as to what the main subject of content is about, They allow content to be ordered into related subjects, They can show how popular a subject is. How should Tags be entered? When you start a thread, you can add tags t…

Ever tried to tell someone how to use a particular bit of BB code, and had to tell them something like "remove the spaces to make the tags work"? Then you'll have probably given up and gone for a cigarette when they said "what spaces?" VB includes a tag called noparse which you can use for displaying BB code as normal text. Any BB code enclosed by the noparse tags will be ignored when the post is parsed and rendered to the browser. So, for example, if I take this... Bold text ...and surround it with noparse tags... Bold text ...you will see this: Bold text Try it out!

It could begin more gradually as you become a caregiver to an ailing family member, or as you step away from a longtime career. It could start suddenly with the separation or divorce or death of a spouse, or a fall that leaves you homebound. It could worsen if you develop trouble hearing or seeing or driving. Social isolation occurs when people withdraw and somehow become disconnected from family, friends and community. Any number of changes that are common to aging can trigger this issue. So perhaps it is not a surprise that nearly 1 in 5 Bangladeshi 65 and older are socially isolated, according to Science Forum. Research finds that this public health epidemic…

A quick question, as I wish to know this, rather than playing around with precious reputation points, but if I am to unselect the approve button beside a reputation comment, does that transform it into anti- reputation, which works against a user, or something along those lines? (yes I know, not a real word...) Or does it rather simply mean the comment is not meant to boost reputation, but is merely conversational? ps: Anti- reputation reminds me of anti- matter, just without the fuss of mass- destruction, and death.

Hello, My daughter is an absolute doll. But she doesnt speak, yet knows basic sign language. My concerns are she hits herself hard in the head when she doesnt get her way. Of course i tell her 'I dont hit you so, I dont want you to hit you' while trying to also stop her from constantly raiding our food cabinets. The teachers used food as a reward system and basically trained her to be a dog. By the time i figured that out the damage was done. How do i stop her from hitting herself? Any suggestions? Kristi

I have made this Hexagonal Chess for three players... The inventor of the chessboard was Matt Seaburry... (In the First Line he had only 4 pawns) The Knight moves: one Hexagon like the Rook and then one Hexagon like the Bishop... or one Hexagon like the Bishop and then one Hexagon like the Rook... The pawns move in two directions: or forward-right or forward-left...

Any clues. I can just about login to Science Forum and have a reasonable knowledge of Word processing and Excel ( enough knowledge to make a Table in Word and change a cell value in Excel). So, my knowledge of using code is very limited. I would really like to present something like this in a post as an animation: http://highered.mheducation.com/sites/0072495855/student_view0/chapter14/animation__transmission_across_a_synapse.html

I think the following ideas 1.Solving global warming through undersea factories 2.Using the Kyoto Protocol to solve the US China Trade war While only sketched out as an idea here, can be verified as used to genuinely make waves across he science and political sphere on the global stage. Now then, those are my ideas the ideas of a layman. Here, around me, we have reputed scientists, pHD holders which is great. I invite you to work with me on developing those ideas above, and help me change the world.
