Programmer Test
I’m so glad Open Diary is back. I’m still a programmer, and I’m still a nerd… so obviously my first real entry is not going to be talking about myself, it’s going to see what kind of neat tricks I can get away with here on Open Diary.
(Not trying to hack your system, OD. I had a lot of HTML/Javascript entries in my old OD, I want to know what I can do in this new one).
I promise I’ll post a real entry about myself and my life after work.
<h2>Commence testing!</h2>

<h3>Links</h3>
<a href=”http://www.bruceariggs.com”>My Site</a>

<h3>Font colors</h3>
<font color=red>Red Font 1</font>
<font color=pink>Pink Font 2</font>φ
This is my next fontBlue here
<hr>
<h3>Lists</h3>
<ul><li>Thing1</li><li>Thing2</li></ul>
<ol><li>Thing1</li><li>Thing2</li></ol>
<hr>
<h3>Line Breaks, Horizontal lines</h3>
What if I type a bunch of manual stuff, followed by a<br>break in the line, followed by<br>another break, and then an HR?
<hr>
<h3>Getting " to work</h3>
Finally, let’s see if we can figure out how to get ” working in the code.
<font color="green">Green text?</font>
It appears if I escape the “, I can still use it in code. So for example instead of typing
<font color="green">My green text!</green>
I would type
<font color=&quot;green&quot;>My green text!</green>
Not sure if this is behavior they prefer, so if not… consider it a bug report! lol
<hr>
<h3>Free For All</h3>
How crazy can I get, what’s allowed?<br><button type="button">This is my button</button>
Oookay, a 403 error happened when I tried to put an on click event in the button click. So I’m guessing Javascript is forbidden.

<h3>Images</h3>
Picture?
Via HTML?

<h3>Youtube Videos</h3>

<h3> Conclusion</h3>
Stick with the UI for links and images.
Pleaaaaaaaaaaaase let Youtube videos become embeddable in the post. I do not want to have to use links to youtube instead.
Neat stuff huh 😀
It’s good, but I really want the Youtube videos to be embeddable.

Youtubes used to be embeddable. Maybe you broke it.

Love this entry 😛

Thanks, this is the kind of testing we need for sure 🙂
No, no JS allowed (but that probably doesn’t surprise you). Youtube links should work when you embed them – just by pasting the link like you did. We will test that further, because it has been working in the past.
Ah, it was a user error. I was going to “Attach Media”, and then attaching via URL, which just leaves me with a URL.

Ha ha this is great. I am also a programmer, and I love using html. Let me know when you get all of this worked out!
They’re definitely still working on the site, as this entry keeps shapeshifting when tags are suddenly working or not working. This entry looks a lot different from the day I posted it!
