Integrate the Church Site Tips into to your site
You can easily integrate our tips page content into your site by copy/pasting some code onto your page. It is particularly suitable for church-related websites, such as church directories and pastors’ resources. It will blend seamlessly into your page, and will draw additional visitors to your site. The ‘Tell-a-friend’ and news-release links allow your site visitors to tell others about it, and their recommendation messages will contain your own URL. (This content is also available to reproduce in printed publications.)
Here are some of the best sites using this resource – we can add yours too. So please
tell us when you have added this resource.

Instructions and code
Don’t be worried, these instructions are easier than they look! If you have problems, ask us for help. There are three ways of doing it.Simplest method: javascript and CSS
This is how it will look on your site. Just copy/paste [help] the following block of code into the location on your page where you wish the topic to appear. Add your normal page header and menu, include a headline and introduction to the topic, and your normal footer information at the end of the page. Note: for the external link tooltips to work correctly in Internet Explorer, your page needs a valid doctype at the very top, before anything else, such as:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
and this meta tag just below the head:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
Without these, some browsers will operate in ‘quirks mode’ and not position the information
boxes correctly.
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://www.internetevangelismday.com/scripts/tipsprint.css" media="print" />
<style type="text/css" media="screen">
@import "http://www.internetevangelismday.com/scripts/toolTip.css";

There are perhaps 200,000 English-language church websites. But sadly, the vast majority have
been written only with Christians in mind. Yet it is possible to design, or transform, a site, such
that it can be an effective outreach into the community.</p>

And that’s it! You have a new page of content. This code will draw down the latest Church Tips content into your page.
If you want to make your page very printer-friendly, enclose other page elements such as menu, footer
etc, which need not appear when printed, within class="hide" tags. (If these items
already have a class, you can add two class items together thus: class="menu hide".)
This, in conjunction with our own provided print style, will make the Tips page print correctly for the many people who wish to keep it for reference.
