returning to the scene of the crime

it's been a while since i created a web page. and now im like a returning prodigal son aiming to get back what i lost. getting thru the same process i walked thru back then - studying. i visited few sites ive created and found them to be boring so i wont put their links here. hahaha! then i stumble upon my site(i want to call it that) - http://www.geocities.com/orpheum_ph/ and remembered that i have created something for myself... a tool for web design. something to start with... and i would like to tap my back for that. and so, i decided to get back into blogging and pst this.

hopefully, i would complete my tool and maybe start on a portfolio. wish me luck!

html character education

so, now, i've decided to update the tool by adding html character entities page. i haven't uloaded it yet but im hoping it will be sooner. unfortunately, it's getting bigger everytime i dig deeper to the subject. i started with  and reached ſ. so that's about 383 characters already. then, i found out from w3 website http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/sgml/entities.html that there's a €. so i guess this will take long... well, wish me luck. i also stumbled upon this site - http://www.escapecodes.info/ kinda cool with the use of image. i, however, prefer character instead of pictures.
