Dear sir,

First of all, thank you for all the work that you do for the community.

I am not sure if I am posting this question on the right place, but since you are the creator of this extraeditbuttons.js and I am unable to find the answer to my question elsewhere, please accept my appology for intruding into your page.

I would love to have these extra buttons on my MediaWiki edit box, but I am such a novice that I don't know how to.

I pasted the "simple code" on Special:Mypage/mystyle.js but nothing favorable happened.

Then after a while of searching, I finally ended up on the actual code that starts with <pre> and ends with </pre>, which was provided by you.

I assume I need to copy the large code into a file named extraeditbuttons.js and place it somewhere, then enter the "simple code" into Special:Mypage/mystyle.js.

Am I totally off?

Would you please be so kind to tell me

if I can actually use this code within my MediaWiki

and if so, where should I place the file?

Your kind help will be received with much appreciation.

Sincerely,

Uh, is this meant for me? I didn't write extraeditbuttons.js, in fact I'm not sure I've even heard of it. —Simetrical (talk • contribs) 19:45, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

I'm sorry, I guess I got lost... I followed the links in search of a help, link after link and I got here...I am sorry for unnecessary intrusion.--Kohyin 21:27, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
