I was amazed at the size of this (see URLs below) amarylis flower
which my brother-in-law grew. It grows from a giant bulb which
you can see in the picture. The second picture is a wonderful close-up.
I thought this was spectacular!

I can't answer your question, Sea but it's a beautiful
flower. Thank you for posting it. Good night, dear.

Yep!
Those Amarylis things really do grow, don't they?
:-)

Not only do they seem to grow very big from the Bulb in the Pot,
but they seem to grow very *fast* as well?

It seems like you turn your back on them for just a couple of Hours
& they've grown several Inches in the meantime!

Yep - Copy & Paste the actual URL (Link) from it into the AddressBar
of your Web Browser.

pmj...

Yep.
Web based Forums use HTML (HyperText Markup Language) to Create
the actual Web Pages that you see in your Web Browser.

(use Menu>View Source" to see it (or RghtClick>View Source)

Now, HTML consists of "Tags", (that's the bits in the )
usually a Tag & an ending (closing) Tag like this...

A Level 1 heading

a Paragraph of Text

Etc, etc...

(Some HTML Tags don't actually *need* an ending Tag - that's the
ones with a Slash in them), but most do & it always a good idea to
include the Closing Tags, cos it makes it easier to follow the
"Structure" of the HTML Markup.

Those HTML "Tags" tell the Web Browser what the stuff between them
actually *is* & then the Web Browser decides how to Display it to you,
so you can see it.

But...
If the Page that you're looking at uses HTML to tell the Browser what
to Display, how can people (who are Posting their Messages to the Forum,
by (in effect), writing a bit of the Page?...

The Owners of the WebSite/Forum obviously wouldn't want just any old
body writing the *actual* Pages, cos that could be a Security Risk,
unless it was very carefully Filtered, so many Web Based Forums use
their own sort of Tags, which they *do* allow people to use, to signify
different things, such as Pictures, or Links, using those [IMG] Tags,
or [LINK] Tags.

Usually the *Forum* Software (on the Web Server) will Automagically
Translate those "Forum Tags" into the correct HTML, but sometimes
it doesn't.

So, basically, all you have to do when you see those sort of things,
is to Copy & Paste the stuff that is *between* & not including) the
[IMG] & [/IMG] Tags, just like you did.

(Hyper Text Transfer Protocol) to Access the URL (Link).

Many Web Browsers & eMail & News Clients will actually (incorrectly)
try to *guess* that some text is an HTTP URL, if, for example it sees
like this...

BTW - You can also get some little Scripts (called BookMarklets),
that you can store in your Favorites & then just Click on them to make
your Web Browser show any Web Pages that have Text that begins with
Link, cos some Web Pages don't include the Tags round all
the stuff that is actually a URL/Link.

not only produced those flowers in February but did a repeat performance in
May after lying behind the garage for three months.

Amazing Amarylis (and a tech question too)
