595. PelleNilsson - 11/13/1999 8:41:49 PM I should be grateful if somebody using Internet Explorer would check this page and tell me what it looks like, in particular if the width of the text is convenient.
(I had to uninstall IE because of conflicts with other programs) 598. PelleNilsson - 11/13/1999 8:44:30 PM OK. Please ceck my #595 up there beside the table. 599. PelleNilsson - 11/13/1999 8:45:03 PM .. check.. 600. dusty - 11/14/1999 12:41:24 AM Oops 601. robertjayb - 11/14/1999 4:17:40 AM ...testing... 602. CalGal - 11/14/1999 4:21:06 AM Dusty,
My first guess is your "align=left" tag.
BTW, to get rid of all those spaces, don't put any carriage returns in before or after the table tags. 603. PelleNilsson - 11/14/1999 4:30:51 AM CalGal
Your are an IE person. Could you please check the link in #595? 604. CalGal - 11/14/1999 5:00:49 AM Pelle,
I'd tried it earlier but the link hadn't worked. I looked at it again and figured out why.
Looks very nice! The width is fine. 605. dusty - 11/14/1999 5:11:47 AM CalGal
So what's wrong with "align=left". I mean it obviously messed up, but why? 607. PelleNilsson - 11/14/1999 5:13:44 AM Thank you, CalGal. 608. CalGal - 11/14/1999 5:17:10 AM Dusty,
Understand I just guess at this. But consider that table align=left then takes the following text and moves it to the left. Any text. It doesn't know from posts.
So I wouldn't use the align tag unless I had text that was going to wrap around the table. 609. dusty - 11/14/1999 5:18:22 AM Pelle
The original link is mesed up. Try this instead.
610. dusty - 11/14/1999 5:20:24 AM And a close table doesn't change that? I have much to learn. 611. CalGal - 11/14/1999 5:21:36 AM No, the close table is what starts the wrap. And I just learn this as I go along--it was Soup that started me on the right track. I'm a lazy coder, quite frankly. 612. CalGal - 11/14/1999 5:22:28 AM Oh, wait.
But consider that table align=left then takes the following text and moves it to the left.
The text following the table. Not the text in the table.
I am also a lazy tech writer.
