Another NewsRiver template 

Click on it to see it bigger. I think I like this one.

If you want to try it, get the stylesheet. (I know it's a little sloppy; I'll tighten it up if anybody likes it and wants to use it.) Put it in your OPML files www folder. Edit the newsRiverWebsite.#template to place this within the head tags:
<%file.readWholeFile (dotOpmlData.folderwatcher.prefs.folder + "newsRiverCss.opml")%>.

For this one, which depends on an image in the h1 tag, you also have to edit h1 to add the attribute id="header"

So the whole template looks like this

Trouble 

All better.

Crazy troubles with my OPML Editor 

I reinstalled from scratch four or five times yesterday because that's always done the trick for me when I've messed something up. I'm a little careless and slap-happy. I'm used to wiping everything out and starting fresh. But always before nothing in my My Documents OPML folder was causing any trouble. Today when I was still having trouble with the editor freezing up, the menu disappearing, everything loading slow, I decided to make a fresh mydocs/opml. Put in just the minimum to do a blog post: www/blog/2006/01/ -- et voila, no more trouble. I wonder what I could have stuck in there that would so decidedly gum everything up.

Now I have to start adding things back in, slowly. I posted something on my regular blog this morning about two other things that need to be blown up and rebuilt thoughtfully: C|net's junked-up-with-ads pages and the U.S. tax code. It must be my Theme of the Day.
