A newsgroup is an Internet forum for posting and reading messages about a specific topic. HTML-Kit newsgroups are available for obtaining technical support and discussing web authoring related topics.
HTML-Kit support forums can be accessed using a newsreader or
viewed in the browser.
Newsgroups are not mailing lists
Subscribing to a newsgroup is somewhat similar to bookmarking a page in that you read the messages at your convenience. Unlike with email subscriptions, you don't receive the messages in your mail box, therefore the email address is not used.
"Post" and "Reply to Group"
The Post function of
your newsreader can be used to send questions to the newsgroup. Please use the Reply to Group function when replying to newsgroup messages. The questions are answered on the newsgroup, so be sure to check back.
Please don't post in HTML
Please post messages in Plain Text, instead of Rich Text or HTML formatted text. You can verify this setting in Outlook Express by going to "Tools | Options | Send | News Sending Format | Plain Text" from the main menu.
Attachments are not allowed
To minimize the time required to download the messages, file attachments are not allowed. If it's necessary to include a screenshot or other file, please post it to a web site and include the address of the file instead of attaching it.
Newsgroups are public forums
These newsgroups are open to the public. Please be courteous to other posters and feel free post your questions and help out whenever you can.
