Re: Online periodicals lists Anne P. Benham 30 Jun 1999 19:04 UTC

We have listed only our newspapers - not our journals - on
our web page.

We created the newspaper lists with Word Perfect and HTML
basically.  ( did the WP files first, put them on a disk,
then coded the information on the disk in HTML).

Now I understand there is an easier way - to create a table
template and  use the merge function in Microsoft Word to
minimize the need to do all the table coding in html for a
long list. However I haven't tried this yet.
And there are html editors you can use to create tables
also - again, I haven't used any yet.

Our page for our current newspaper listing is
http://www.lib.virginia.edu/permic/usa.html.

Hope this helps some.
