Does anyone know how to do annotations for their archives? I want to do that for my comics, but I'm not sure how. Is there a special tag you use for it, or do I have to go into each HTML file for each comic and do it manually??<P>------------------

What I do is to create a small file called, say, 20010616z.html with the contents of the annotation as a piece of HTML (not an entire HTML document!). I upload it along with the comic for the day (20010616.png for example), and when the comic updates, the annotation will show below the image as in <A HREF="http://test.keenspace.com/d/20010616.png" TARGET=_blank>there</A>.<P>Hope it helps.<P>------------------
