How to Store Your Email Sigs


By Beth Candy
(December 19, 1999)

The PageBuilder is an excellent place to store your e-mail signature lines. You can keep them in one central place, organized, handy, and accessible from any user account. If you took the time to build a great Holiday sig or just enjoy using different sigs for different moods, you will enjoy this easy Sig Storage. It takes less than 5 minutes to make.

Here's How:


  • Go to your PageBuilder Index
  • Click on "create"
  • Select a page style.
  • Click on "Add an item."
  • Select "Text"
  • Cut and paste this in the large box:

    <img src="http://community.webtv.net/SecretAdmirer/sigstoragegif/scrapbookFiles/importD18.jpg"> <br><br><br>
    My Christmas Sig<form name="Beth"><textarea name="Candy" ROWS="4" COLS="50"><html>Code Here</html></textarea><br><br>
    My Angel Sig<textarea name="Candy" ROWS="4" COLS="50"><html>Code Here</html></textarea><br><br>
    My Lovesong Sig<textarea name="Candy" ROWS="4" COLS="50"><html>Code Here</html></textarea><br><br><br> My WebSite Sig <textarea name="Candy" ROWS="4" COLS="50"><html>Code Here</html></textarea></form><br>

  • Press "Done"
  • Press "Publish" (on left sidebar)
    To customize this for your personal needs:
  • Remove the title (e.g.: My Christmas Sig" and replace with your own description.
  • Remove the words "Code Here" and replace with actual code from your sigs. I put the HTML in for you.
  • Make as many boxes as you need by repeating the code that starts with the two "br's" and ends with "/textarea"
    To add sig lines in the future:
  • Go to your PageBuilder Index.
  • Click on this page.
  • Click on "Change page"
  • You will see this page.
  • Take your arrow down around to highlight the text
  • Click on the highlighted text.
  • Paste your latest sig creation in.
  • Press "Done"
  • Press "Publish" (on left sidebar)
  • Important: Remember to press the "Publish" button on the left sidebar to save any changes you have made.
    To retreive your stored sigs:
  • Go to your page.
  • Enter the box that contains your sig.
  • Press the "cmd" and "A" keys to highlight the text.
  • Press the "C" key to copy.
  • Go into your mailbox and press "V" to post the code into your Signature Settings.

Common errors:
The most common error in cutting and pasting HTML code is invisible spaces.
    To delete invisible spaces:
  • Put your cursor in the front of the second line of your code.
  • Look at the last character of your first line (e.g., the letter R).
  • Lightly press your delete key once.
  • Did you delete the letter R? (R is used an example of what character is last on line one.)
  • If you did, replace it.
  • If you did not delete the letter R (the last letter of line 1), then you deleted an invisible space.
  • Press the delete key again in case there is a second invisible space.
  • Once you delete the last letter of line 1 you know that you have deleted all the invisible spaces.
  • Remember to immediately replace any character you have deleted.
  • Continue searching and deleting invisible spaces by proceeding to the next line (line 3) and looking at the end of line 2, etc., etc.

With love from,
Beth Candy
