Looks like you need a few more :) I used to code my website by hand, now I
use a crutch (Dreamweaver). Old age forces me go back to old code to find
what I'm looking for.

Subject: Re: [Rockhounds] Printed Mineral Labels
I started cataloging my collection using HTML off my website as a way to
learn HTML some years ago. I have included a link in each catalog entry as a
place-holder for photographs, but the posting of photographs has been hit or
miss (mostly miss) over the years. It starts with a sequential number stuck
to the specimen that matches the catalog entry, and the number gets added to
any existing labels. Specimens without labels get one written on the back of
an old business card. I have indexes into the sequential list by name and by
mineral group/type using HTML links.
I have at least been consistent about cataloging new specimens, but going
back and cataloging my early years of collecting only seems to happen
occasionally. Cataloging is a commitment and a habit, and if it is not
fairly easy to do it won't get done over time. If you are interested in
seeing what I have done so far, follow the link to my name catalog
