HTML - Paragraph Formatting Question

Ok I am having a really weird problem. I have a simple div that has some images in it and I am trying to center them. I added text-align: center to the div that wraps the images but it doesn't center the images like it should.

Also, I have a radio button below the image that is wrapped in <p> </p> tags. It looks right in FF of course, but in IE7 it puts the radio button to the side of the picture instead of below like it should when it is wrapped in paragraph tags. Anyone have any idea why this might be happening?

Hello everyone, I am new here and I am have a very odd problem with one of my paragraph tags. It is placed at the bottom of the main content just before the footer. Yet it thinks it encompasses all of the content in the main content div. When I use css to make the font bigger, only the paragraph changes font size. None of the other text, such as links, changes font size. That's what's supposed to happen. But when I add a top margin to the paragraph to try to move it down, all of the content in the main content div moves down. I am thoroughly confused. Can somebody help me understand why this is happening?

Hi everyone, not sure if this is possible but I would like to have a page that has two textboxes - "1: Input" and "2: Output"

So if you copy a few paragraphs from MSWord into that first input box, then click a button that says "Convert", the second Output box shows up with the same text only with a full line break in between paragraphs (not put html tags like <BR> in it)

My reasoning is that in word, you can distinguish between paragraphs because of tabbing, but when you copy/paste it into a forum post, it just mushes together and becomes very difficult to read, making line breaks the best way to separate.

Example:

Input:
Code:

Once upon a time blah blah blah.
The next day thirty people died. It was sad.

Output:
Code:

Once upon a time blah blah blah.

The next day thirty people died. It was sad.

Thank you!

I confess that I am a total 'noob' at 74 years old, and will probably get flamed for this question - but here goes - I have taken the on-line HTML course for basic set up and have built a web page; however, it is so bad I do not want to launch it until I can get some issues corrected.

PROBLEM 1 - I built the file in 'notepad' text writer. When I look at my internet at 'open', 'brouse', 'index.html' file, and select 'OK', the features show up as I want; however, when I upload the file to my web page, the image is a square with a red X.

I set up the image by adding the following line to the file:

<img src="xxx.jpg">


PROBLEM 2- In spite of adding <p> </p> at the beginning and ending of my paragraphs, after uploading, the webpage displays each paragraph of text as one long line of text.

Can someone advise where I am going wrong?

I''m trying to center the main title of the page: Combative Conditioning $50 per month

http://lmiinc.com/combat_conditioning.html

It seems to be off to the right a lot...

But I have it text-align: center;

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Hi

I noticed that ie6 renders paragraph breakline spaces bigger than ie7 or FF.

I got around it by using <br /><br /> instead of <p></p>, but is there a proper workaround to make ie6 conform?

Also also tried stipulating the CSS for the p tags, but to no avail:

.maintext {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 9pt;
color:#fff;
text-align:justify;
line-height:100%;
}

.maintext p {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 9pt;
color:#fff;
text-align:justify;
line-height:100%;
}

Cheers

This is frustrating, I'm looking for that code, working in IE and Firefox.
Please help!

I am in the process of re-designing my website.
old site www.ghilliesuitsource.com
new site still a work in progress www.ghilliesuitsource.com/gss_test
I am struggling with 2 things on my new site.

1) The parallelogram (tilted rectangle) images in the background are seperated by paragraph breaks so that I can alternate between left and right aligned. While all of the forground "stuff" text and product images are AP DIV elements so they hold their spacing. Page looks like I intend it to in IE but netscape/firefox appear to use a different paragraph break line size causing the forground "stuff" to appear lower and lower with respect to the parallelograms, and it gets worse the further down the page you go.

2) It appears as though IE will not change text size inside an AP DIV element when you go to "view-Text Size" This is good because I am using a graphic to act as a border around text. Netscape and Firefox do change font sizes in AP DIV elements so when you select a larger fontsize the text "spills" out of the border.

If you can help me out with either of these problems I would certainly appreciate it.

NOTE: This is on a WAMP localhost wordpress setup.

I have code in a "static" page that I put there in "edit page" view, HTML tag, in wordpress/dashboard that looks like this:

Can someone tell me why image2 shows up "INSIDE" the paragraph block when I look at it in "view page" mode?

Code:

<div class="promo">
<img class="image1" yada yada yada />
<p> yada yada yada </p>
<img class="image2" yada yada yada />
</div>

I also have this styling in style.php:

Code:

.image1 {float: left;}
.promo p {float: left;}
.image2 {float: left;}

My intent was to put the paragraph block between the two images.

Image1 floats fine; the paragraph floats just fine; image2 floats fine, but, image2 shows up "INSIDE" the paragraph block, not outside it like image1 does. I want image2 outside and to the right of the paragraph block.

Both images float fine without the paragraph block, but when I insert the paragraph block between them, image2 leaps inside the paragraph block.

Any help on this will be greatly appreciated.

How can I prevent search engines from indexing a paragraph?

I know that with <META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="NOINDEX"> you can prevent search engines from indexing a page. But I just want to stop them from indexing one paragraph in a page, not the whole page.

Hi everyone..

I;ve just launch my new webiste but IE seems to have messed up some of the formatting. Is there an eastyfix/tool to remedy this?

All other browsers see fine. I have tested in Browsershots...

Thanks

Hey there just starting to make a new site, and just kinda slowly making pages and trying to get the formatting and looks down first.

anyways here is my site: http://uberwalla.com

and you may notice depending on the resolution the footer is not at the very bottom its kinda floating high with a gray bottom under it. I am just wondering how i can make it so that no matter what resolution and no matter what browser, that it'll automatically make the footer the very bottom (touching the status bar or past it have to scroll down) no matter the size of the page.

thanks in advance,
uberwalla
