HydroMaster -> Help with HTML (5/17/2007 5:35:35 PM)
I'm on another site....we'll call it minespace. [:)] I have borders setup between sections and the text keeps starting on the right hand side of the border instead of under it. What code goes around the text to stop that? I already tried it like this: <body> text </body> ,which is the way I learned it years ago but it doesn't work. Anyone an expert on this? Asisstance greatly appreciated.

Use a layout generator and then modify it from within. That way you have the essential codes and can modify it to suit your tastes. Edited to add: Once you have your layout set up the way you want it, be sure to save a copy of the HTML code in a Word or Text document elsewhere on your PC. Minespace is notorious for people hijacking and stealing codes and leaving yorespace completely empty.

Try a <br> after your </body> and you might also try <td align="center"> before your text that is currently to the right of your "body".... Not sure if that'll help but it was the only thing I could come up with......

As a rule, you use <body> at the top of your page, and </body> at the end of your page. Period. What are you using to create the lines? <hr>, or table formatting, or a graphic, or ? Either way, you should be able to get your text back below the line by doing a <br> or <p> between the line and the next section of text. If you post the source (you can replace your actual text with "blah") it'd be easier to tell. ...dave (i've been writing my webpages in Wordpad for ten years, damnit... change is scary and bad!)

Alrighty I got it....it's sort of a combination fo solutions. I got rid of the <body> all together and add the <br> after each border code. I also figured out that if I put it after a sentence the next sentence starts on a new line. Thanks for the help guys.
