qwerty, you missed the point of his post. He hacked his navigation device to do something other than navigation. It would seem his Nokia nav unit is running Windows CE, so he hacked it to install and run CE apps on it and modify system settings.

I did the same thing with my Navigon unit, which also runs Windows CE. Try doing this with an embedded Linux device. TomTom's nav devices run embedded Linux, and I found no way of hacking into it and installing any available apps (there are none, even if they were, selection would not be close to number of WinCE apps) on it without serious mod/recompiling (not that I know how).

And there is a software package called miopocket.

I have one of those 500s, and this is an inspiration. I'll investigate doing something with it rather than using it as a dust-gatherer...

@ KristianW, if I understand your question, this is not the first time I've seen some misunderstanding around the insert image issue and the link that answers the question; vBulletin needs to separate the "add attachment" answer from the "insert image" answer. Use the link and scroll down to "How do I add an image to a post?", ignore the first paragraph in that section, (meaning ignore the paragraph that starts "If you have uploaded") -- it doesn't belong there if clarity is what they're after -- look at the second paragraph which starts with "To include an image that is not uploaded..."

To directly answer (what I think is) your question, you can either:

1) type your text and use the "Insert Image" wherever you want images among your text. Continue to Insert Image and insert text wherever you want, or

2) use [IMG][/IMG] tags around the pic URL and treat the post as you would treat regular HTML, (minus the text tags), meaning text gets treated in a regular manner, but images need [IMG][/IMG] tags, as if they were being put in an html document.

Joe.

THANKS a LOT , Joe !!

I read that paragraph, and mistakenly thought it had to do only with pic's on the web.
And that what I looked for was somewhere else.
Us beginners and HTML ignorants - -

With some experimenting I'll probably get to grips with it.

Thanks , Joe !!

It's a shame there isn't one. If there were I would give this post a big thanks:

I guess some people must think that threads in the "off topic" forum can be hijacked to what ever off topic you want.

...so did you hear the news?
I just saved a bunch of money on my car insurance.
