Are you implying that there is a different form of horoscope?! laughhard.gif I can only assume that you were speaking in with humor in mind. rofl.gif I believe that someone recently discovered that the dates/star positions used for the so-called "information" were based on inaccurate data. Thus forcing all "predictions/forecasts/information" to be invalid. Of course, those who choose to use horoscopes will no doubt be oblivious to any facts such as those. rolleyes.gif

I dont 'do' horoscope, so I really dont know anything about it.

****message to Jim, I am finally learning CSS and making some nice pages, I love it. Its sooo much fun to play around with.
I heard of Joomla and a friend said to take a class in it, heard of it?  I would rather take a class in DW if I could find an up to date one.
Your advice was the BEST, you told me to learn the hand coding first, and then I could do the other stuff. Like learning to swim before you go scuba diving.

I've heard of Joomla, and that's about all I know of it. blush-anim-cl.gif If I were you, I'd stick with html(5), css(3) and even javascript (at least jQuery) before tackling Joomla. Just depends on how many years you have left on the planet! I don't think I have enough! eek2.gif And, then there is PHP... rolleyes.gif laughhard.gif

Yes indeed, I will stick with the coding, its so much fun, now that Ive learned how to do it.
Im not that young, and I want to do stuff before we get too old.
We travelled extensively, and now we are into our fun stuff here at home during the winter nastys.
So much fun learning new things that we never encountered during our working years.
Will keep on coding and learning this.  Just looked up jQuery and though Im not really relishing javascript, will take a longer look at it.
Thanks,
Jane

...of course, knowing how to do it and doing it efficiently and well are often two different things... Thinking.gif

I know how to bake a cake, but making a living at it, even in a barter system, is way beyond my capabilities! blush-anim-cl.gif Same goes for my 'coding.' rolleyes.gif

Thats why I love learning new stuff, and never have to worry about doing anything like this for a living. I could never sit on my butt that long anyway.

Speaking of cake, our oldest grandson just turned 12, and we consumed his chocolate cake, and only half the family was here, whew it was GOOD!
