Put "On This Day" On Your Web Page - Simple Version

The simple version of our syndicated On This Day feature uses JavaScript to provide your visitors with a new word to learn every day. All it takes is one line of code!

This code provides a On This Day link that opens in the same browser window or frame:

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.reference.com/thisday/thisday.js"></script>

If you would prefer that the link opens a new browser window, use this code:

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.reference.com/thisday/thisday2.js"></script>

Select the code, then copy and paste it into your Web page.

We've centered it here; you can add your own formatting like font color, face and size, style sheets, etc. For information on developing Web pages, we recommend books from O'Reilley & Associates, including (click book title for purchasing info at Amazon.com):

• HTML & XHTML : The Definitive Guide
• Web Design in a Nutshell : A Desktop Quick Reference
