Click on the little triangle-box to sort on that column. [Click on another box to change the sort. Only one level of sort - but what if you do first one then the second one, does it then sort within the sort?]

[edit] Message in colored box?

This is called a "Wikibreak" - but does anything (including Good Sense) prevent using it for Other Purposes?? Well, it DOES come with the picture.... maybe I could learn how to make something like it?

[edit] Colored background/box

Peter contributed this:

makes a background color, when put at the top of a page. Looks really cool on a talk page. No closing /div tag needed? Grabbed this from User:Valentinian.

I added the closing tag, to get just a colored box (I hope!) -- Yup. Now, the next trick is to....play with Background Colors! Not tonight... == Martha 03:30, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
