Yahoo Groups in webrings/Gil

Gil,

This is a fairly common request.

Yahoo groups don't work well with webrings because they limit the
type of code and it's length.

Some people have been able to use the HTML code on thier groups. It
really limits any else in the group's discription though. The Java
code will NOT work.

Other people have registered a website URL (something like
Geocities) and placed the code there. Then they put a text link to
the Yahoo group on that page as well. It is important that the
person be able to get back to the registered URL to continue the
ring journey(another link back). Some ringmasters will not approve
of this method. (Thier choice)

Hope this helps! (write back, if not)

Truman
