Categories and Subcategories

Links are organized in categories and subcategories. Categories are like "folders" and can be nested. Subcategories are categories within a category. Except some predefined major categories on the font page, each subcategory has its own page.

Navigation

Subcategories are shown in bold fonts. Tooltips (they show up after you move your mouse over a link and let it stay there for a while) are available for most of the links. If you'd like to launch the link in a separate window, click the yellow button on the left of the link. You may use the plus sign button to expand a page and minus sign button to collapse an already expanded page.

When you are in a subcategory page, the header of the page is composed of segments of the category hierarchy. You may click each segment to jump to the desired level of category.

Show All shows all the categories and links in one page. The links in protected pages are not clickable unless you have passed through some pages that required password.

Sort puts all the links in sorted order. However, for Chinese, the order does not follow the number of strokes of the characters.

Maintenance Actions

Use the "Maintenance Actions" choice list to add, change, or move entries.

Add a Link: Add a link to a category

Add a Page: Add a subcategory (page) to a category. Note: The subcategory name and the flag indicating whether the page is protected can not be changed later. Please enter them with care (If you really had to change them, you would have to delete the pages and then add them in again).

  • Name: A short name for the link or page (i.e., subcategory).
  • URL: The URL for the link.
  • Expire after (days): The number of days that the link/page will expire after. If not specified, it never expires.
  • Owner: The owner of the link or page.
  • Owner password: If you would like to change or delete a link or page in the future, you would have to enter this password in order to be authorized later when you do the change/delete. If not specified, this link or page can only be changed or deleted by a super user. Note: Due to free web site limitation, the security protection is not strong here. Don't use your regular personal passwords - pick something else.
