Help on Libs


Do know what to do? Follow this guide to help you.

          So it's not exactly like Mad Libs , but it has the same concept. You have to do more than just filling the blank. You have to do more. Here are the directions and definations of some things I used

A note on forms:
        All my libs stories uses forms and form objects. They are used to get input from the visitor. There often used for messaging, questionnaires, and shopping services. But, I use these things in another way. I use those form objects in a way that you would pick and choose a answer. You don't need to send it in (but I'll consider that in the future). There is a "clear" button if you want to start off fresh. Currently, the only form objects (the ones were you put fill in the blank or the answer) I use is the text box, and the drop down box. Next, I will tell you how to operate them.

       You can do a lot of things with forms. My creation of libs shows that using forms isn't only for some survey, question and answer document. Its also a casual thing.

Submiting libs
      
One thing about my libs is that you need not to submit you work to me. All work you do here in libs isn't important, and please don't shove it here. I meant it to be a fun way to do something, and nothing that you shouldn't send any thing to anyone. 
        If you worried about security you do not have to send any info, because you can not send anything in. Promise ^_^.

How to Operate
.
Text Box:
       A text box is used to get input for the visitor in form of text. To operate click on the text box. All of text should be be highlighted, but it doesn't matter if its not. Just erase all of it and replace it with your own words. Text boxes should have parentheses as shown here:

Textbox

Drop down boxes:
       Drop down is more complicated than the text box, but its useful. Why is it useful? Because its sets one answer out of all the possiblities that are set. Info on this would tell the host which one of the stuff he or she has got.

       It is easy to operat the drop down box. If you can use the menu options on windows, drop down boxes is just the same. Just click on the arrow(s), or triangle(s), to start. It will reveal a menu of choices. If you like one of the choices, click on it. It will replace the message before you modified it.

Here is a visual aid:
Look for this  Closed Ddropdown box   , then   arrow , and you see this  Open Dropdown Box
Select a option, then click it. Selecting option Then the selcted option will now appear. Replace w/ a new answer

If the visual aid is not in order, the picures isn't showing, or whatever click here for a better visual aid.
