Hi all,
Today, when rummaging through paper, I found an HTML page with some JavaScript in it.
I added a table for better display. Maybe it's completely useless, but I found it fun.
Create DisplayFont.html with the text below and view in a browser. (And I do not know who the writer of the original is... Anyone?)
cheers,
Rob.
<html>
<head>
<title>The Noteworthy NWC2STDA Font</title>
</head>
<body>
NWC2STDA font<br><br>
<table border=1>
<tr>
<script language="javascript">
for (var i=41;i<=150;i++) {
document.write("<td> " + i + " &#" + i + "; <font face=NWC2STDA size=+4>&#" + i + ";</font> </td>");
if (!(i % 10))
document.write("</tr><tr>");
}
</script>
</tr>
</table>
<br>
End of font display.
</body>
oh... I see that I could have the variable run from 31 to 160. It adds a few more characters.
Maybe the font was different (less characters defined) when the script was first written.
It covers most of ones needs.
Can't swear to it, but it was probably me on a previous computer. This is the closest thing I have to it now:
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
<meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 4.0">
<meta name="ProgId" content="FrontPage.Editor.Document">
<title>The FretQwikC font</title>
</head>
<body>
<SCRIPT type="text/javascript">
document.write('<html><head><title>The FretQwikC font</title></head><body><font size="+4">');
for (var i=1; i<256; i++) {
document.write("&#" + i + "; " + i + " <font face='FretQwikC'>&#" + i + ";</font>\n");
if (!(i % 8)) document.write("<br>\n");
}
document.write("</font></body></html>");
</script>
</body>
</html>
You can save it as a file ending in
.html, perhaps after doing a global replace on
FretQwickC to another font and run it.
