top ten html extensions that did not make it into netscape 1.0N*


  1. Juggling Mozilla<WIRED>...</WIRED>
    Renders the enclosed text in Sturm und Drang 374 Medium Bold Condensed, in light purple on a neon orange background. Tells you repeatedly how cool you are for using netscape.
  2. <ROACH>....</ROACH>
    When selected, the enclosed text runs and hides under the nearest window. OR, giggles a lot and demands nachos, depending on your definition of "roach." (the formal definition, of course, to be determined by the Official Honorary Internet Standards Committee For Moving Really Slowly.)
  3. <KILL_SGML>
    Should anyone foolish enough to think that HTML is still SGML and try and run a netscape-html document through an SGML editor, processor, or other tool, this tag causes an immediate core dump, erases anything on your disk with "DTD" in the name, and emails a randomly-selected insult to Tim Pierce.
  4. <PINHEAD>...</PINHEAD>
    Inserts "zippyisms" into the enclosed text. Perfect for those professional documents.
  5. <SECRET>....</SECRET>
    In order to read the enclosed text, you have to have secret spy decoder glasses (available direct from Mcom for a reasonable fee).
    You can also read it by holding your computer in front of a full moon during the autumn solstice.
  6. Pogo Mozilla<HYPE>
    Causes Marc Andreesen to magically appear and grant you an interview (whether you want one or not).
    Please use this tag sparingly.
  7. <PEEK>....</PEEK>
  8. <POKE>...</POKE>
    So you want more control over screen layout in HTML? Well, here ya go.
  9. <YOGSOTHOTH>
    Summons the elder gods to suck away your immortal soul. Or Bill Gates, if the elder gods are busy.
    Unpredictable (but amusing) results occur when the <YOGSOTHOTH> and <HYPE> tags are used in close proximity.
  10. <BLINK>...</BLINK>
    Causes the enclosed text to...
    ooops, that one made it in.
* because they ran out of beer.
