Align=Justify
My turn.
I'm putting my new site together and have created a table to position (mainly) text. However, in doing so, I seem to have lost my text alignment which was, and (as far as I can see) still is, set to 'justify'. For some reason, it's decided to display as 'left' align instead. I checked the code which still seems to indicate it should be justified. Can anyone see where I've gone wrong in this lot? [ The page has sliced header and footer images positioned in tables. The text table is between these, with a nested table in the last cell. I require most, not all, of the table text to display as 'justified'. ] Appreciate any insights. Brgds One very tired Skwirrell p.s. Couldn't post the code (too many characters apparently) so I've temporarily uploaded it to my domain http://www.skwizz.co.uk/ |

Re: Align=Justify
I've always noticed how content within a table tends to reject some CSS, unless you specifically target it. Sometimes I just add to my CSS like so:
table p {text-align: justify;} |

Re: Align=Justify
Doesn't seem to be working.
I've tried placing it in a number of different locations but it hasn't affected anything. |

Re: Align=Justify
I fixed it Herk'
I couldn't figure out the CSS command so I used the same one in HTML. Had to do it at the start of each cell which was a pain but at least it's working. Thanks for the nudge. |

Re: Align=Justify
You might like to know that whilst your site looks quite clean and tidy in IE and in Opera, it looks a mess in Firefox. It's misaligned and showing grid lines that look awful. It's probably something to do with the non-compliant code. IMO you should rethink the table layout in preference to modern layout techniques. Also get rid of non-standard tags such as <footer>. |

Re: Align=Justify
Thanks Geoff,
I am aware I'm not cross-compliant. I'm not a great fan of the fox (skwirrells tend to get ate a lot by them I'm not ever going to be professional at it. It's just for fun coz I enjoy doing it. If it ever reaches +40% user coverage, I may do a rethink. |
