How to proceed
when creating your own puzzle
- Fill in the form below. The font size in the applet will - to
some extent - be adapted to the length of your texts. Keep them brief,
however!
Unfortunately, almost no special mathematical symbols
are available. x² (resp x³) is written by simultaneously holding the
CRTL and the ALT key, and then hitting 2 (resp 3). For higher powers use
the notation x^4.
If quotation marks are necessary: please
use single ones ( ' ... ' ).
- Generate the puzzle by clicking the button 'Generate puzzle'.
You will receive a web page in a new browser window containing the
puzzle together with your additional text. (When using the Internet
Explorer, it might be necessary to refresh the page in order to see
the applet). The browser window you're just lookig at will be kept, so
that you can change your input and repeat the procedure until your're
pleased with the result.
Save the puzzle page at your
computer, giving it an arbitrary name (the first suggestion will be
"selfpuzzle.html"). If necessary, the page may be re-designed by
modifying the HTML code.
Caution: Newer versions of
Internet Explorer do not save the desired puzzle but the page you
are watching right now. In this case go to View ® Source. Add
<BASE
HREF="http://www.univie.ac.at/future.media/moe/selfpuzzle/">
as first line in the document that opens in Word Pad, and
save it as HTML file.
- Run the puzzle when connected to the internet, because the
Java class-files needed are still located at the maths online website.
If you want to download the complete puzzle so as to become independent
of the internet, consult this
page.
