Embed'ing and Tables

 
Avatar Bartmcd 1 post

I have recently read and learned how to embed Google Maps directly into Backpack. I am looking to see if anyone else has a listing of other ‘applicatoins’ or web sites that can be embedded into Backpack. This helps to centralize information I use from other websites directly into my ‘Backpack’.

In addition, I am looking to create some tables where I can track my progress. It would be a simple table—columns would be Days in a Week (Sunday-Saturday) and the rows would be a variety of things I am looking to accomplish each day (various workout activities, goal reviews, etc.)

Thanks – any links or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

You can create tables really easily. Open a note and type a Pipe for column breaks, and a new line for row.

<table> <tr> <td> column 1 </td> <td> column 2 </td> <td> column 3 </td> </tr> <tr> <td> test 1 </td> <td> test 2 </td> <td> test 3</td> </tr> </table>

Ooops sorry—this forum read it as html table…. like this but skip the quotations marks.

”| column 1 | column 2 |”
”| Data 1 | |Data 2 |”

You can put in most anything using an iframe, following the google maps example.

I have del.icio.us pages embedded on several BP pages using the following

<iframe src="http://del.icio.us/username/tag" height="500" width="640"></iframe>
