Adding HTML Codes and Scripts in Blogger Posts

Blogger post will respond to the scripts and html codes written in posts. so it needs to be converted so as to look like this (the code is not image), so that it will be easy for all to copy the code.

It needs to be encoded to put it in blogger post. The easy way will be to visit http://centricle.com/tools/html-entities/  and paste the html code and click on encode which will give out the needed html version of code, which can be paste in blogger post like normal text but will appear in code while published.

Creating Table of Contents in Blogger Easy Way

Here is a piece of code which will easily make a table of content for you. Now since blogger has already built up the new page system, we can create a new page like i did for TOC.

code goes like this:

<script style="text/javascript" src="http://www.yourjavascript.com/1030112252/blogtoc.js"></script>
<script src="http://mypracticelab.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default?max-results=9999&alt=json-in-script&callback=loadtoc"></script>

note: you can change the the blog name (in red) with yours.

(For example see on the top of my blog where i have Home, About Us and TOC as different pages)

1. Sign into Blogger Draft (draft.blogger.com).

2. Click on New Post as usual.

click on new post in blogger draft
3. Select the 'Edit Pages' from the top menu
select edit pages option from the nav links


4. Click on 'New Page' button.

create new page

5. Now, give your page a title and write the content and publish the page.
6. If you want to display the Pages list in your Blog sidebar, select the 'Blog Sidebar' option,or you can keep it as nav menu below header by selecting 'Blog Tabs' option.

select option


Note: If You've Selected either 'Blog Sidebar' or ' Blog Tabs ' option and if you see any bx-error,.. then, come back to last page and select 'No Gadget' option.
This means,you have to add the links manually to your template.

Click on Edit Pages again and Right Click on View -> Copy link location (in firefox) and Add the link manually in your sidebar via Link widget or you can add the link in your navigation bar via template > edit html.

Edit: As of now, Blogger allows you to only create pages up to 10. But, you can hack blogger to create more pages. You can read that tutorial here.(by Switcher)

Academy Award - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Academy Award - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "The Academy Awards, popularly known as the Oscars, are presented annually by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) to recognize excellence of professionals in the film industry, including directors, actors, and writers. The formal ceremony at which the awards are presented is one of the most prominent award ceremonies in the world. It is also the oldest award ceremony in the media, and many other award ceremonies such as the Grammy Awards (for music), Golden Globe Awards (all forms of visual media), and Emmy Awards (for television) are often modeled from the Academy. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences itself was conceived by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer studio boss Louis B. Mayer.
The 1st Academy Awards ceremony was held Thursday, May 16, 1929, at the Hotel Roosevelt in Hollywood to honor outstanding film achievements of 1927 and 1928. It was hosted by actor Douglas Fairbanks and director William C. deMille. The 82nd Academy Awards, honoring the best in film for 2009, will be held on Sunday, March 7, 2010, at the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood, with actors Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin hosting the ceremony"

Blogger Buzz: Monetize!

"You may have noticed that about a week ago a new tab showed up in Blogger for your blog. The tab is called Monetize, and in case it isn't clear what that means: it's now easier than ever to make money with your blog! (There's also a 'Monetize' link from your Dashboard as well.)

The current Monetize tab allows you to apply for an AdSense account (or link your Blogger blog to an existing AdSense account). You can then choose where to place ads on your blog, and once ads start appearing on your blog, review your earnings. We use the AdSense API to pull your live earnings data from your AdSense account, so now it's easy to check how your revenues are doing without leaving the Blogger interface.

Please note that new applications may take a few days to process, and not every site will be approved (for more on the eligibility criteria for an AdSense account, please see here). Details about the monetize tab and the information presented there is available in Blogger's Help section."
