I know this is probly a VERY stupid and obvious question, but you know those news clippits that are at the bottom of the comic in the archive on some strips, well how do you do that?
I know that you can use a dated text file and it will put it directly under the comic, but how do you tell it that you want it in a certain spot, or between shuch and shuch graphic? <P>------------------

There's several ways to do it; you could use a bit of javascript to slice the results of the ***todays_comics*** tag into two parts and put them in seperate places (some limitations), you could include the html code for the the stuff inbetween the two in your text file (you'll have to include it every time whether you have news or not), you could use CSS layers, or even the ***include *** tag, it's up to you.<P>------------------
