Positioning of text

I'd like to create a block of text on a blank page that is
centered both horizontally and vertically no matter what the size
of someone's screen or browser is. Is it possible to do this in
Contribute?

Here is one way to do it:
1. In the blank-page create a table: 1 row, 1 column, width
100%, border 0
2. Inside this (outside) table create another (inside) table
with your text-images: 1 row, 1 column, width your-width, border
what-you-prefer
3. Select the outside-table and go to the table properties,
set Hor. alignment to Center en Vert. alignment to Middle
Your inside-table is now centered in the outside-table.
4. In the menu choose: File, Actions, Edit Page Source in
External Application
5. Now in the external application remove the doctype
declaration at the absolute top of the source code
6. Select the outside-table and add
height="100%" to the table tag
7. Save the file
8. Go back to Contribute and Publish your page
grtz.

  • What do i do to position the text ?

    Hi everyone,
    i'm new to dreamweaver and coding in general. i am making my first web page using photoshop and dreamweaver and it seems that so far i have made good progress on this but the problem is that i can't position the text where i want. see the picture below.
    [html]http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y40/pedped/pic1.jpg[/html]
    this is the photoshop version and as you can see there are three different types of text in each box.
    now what i have done so far is that i have created a DIV for second box and a new style sheet called box2 and in this box2 i have add 3 different rules for each text format ( i don't know what i have done is right or now) and i can't use margin or anything else to move my text to right or down to position my text correctly. i would appreciate your help.

    You need to use either padding or margin rules to move the text within the box.. no other way to do it really.
    You could use padding in #box p { } rule.  This rule would style any <p> (paragraph) tag in a box with the ID of Box.
    eg:  #box p {font-size: 12px; color: black, padding-top: 5px;}
    However, before going any further I have to warn you that you should never let an image editor create the html for you.  You need to learn how to slice up the PShop comp and build the page in Dreamweaver yourself.
    Image-ready has created a very fragile code base.. here are the reasons why not to use an image editor to write your html:
    http://apptools.com/rants/spans.php
    The code you provided shows no use of a Doctype at the top of your code - a DTD is need to ensure that your page is rendered as it should in all browsers.  Without a DTD the page will render in quirks mode in non-compliant browsers and not render correctly.  Usually this happened with very early versions of Dreamweaver, what version are you using?
    DOCTYPES:
    Reference:   http://www.alistapart.com/articles/doctype/
    http://www.alistapart.com/articles/doctype/
    http://htmlhelp.com/tools/validator/doctype.html
    These tutorials may help you move forward with using Dreamweaver - You really should learn basic html and css - once you do,, working with Dreamweaver will be much easier.

  • Indent /tab position for text from INCLUDE texts in SAPscript

    Hi, ABAP colleagues!
    Need your help on this sapscript problem:  How to align texts taken from "INCLUDE TEXT" in SAPscript, according to tab defined in Paragraph Format?
    Or, how to control tab positions for texts which were extracted from “INCLUDE text” commands in SAPscript?
    I defined a paragraph format with tab stop at 8 CH so that with 2 commas (,,) my text will be displayed there.  However it always appears to the left (e.g. 1st column) and not indented at the proper column for description/text (e.g. which is in second column). 
    Pls help, bec a different heading and information is not acceptable to client for the Thailand characters. 
    Above is the description of the problem.  Below are some technical details.
    For specific example, I am editing Zversion of standard sap MM form MEDRUCK Window Main -  Text Element Item Text.
    BG ,,&TTXIT-TDTEXT&
    /: INCLUDE &T166P-TXNAM& OBJECT &T166P-TDOBJECT& ID &T166P-TDID&
    /: NEW-PARAGRAPH BG
    So far, tried these approaches:
    PARAGRAPH
    NEW-PARAGRAPH
    LANGUAGE '2'
    THANGSAN font
    Any ideas?
    Thank you so much in advance for all your help. Our project team will really appreciate it. May the Lord bless you as we go through our SAP work!

    Hello !
    I have a <input type=text...> on a JSP Page with a default value...
    I want this: when the input get focus, it "sends" the cursor to the last position, so the user can continue the default value...

    Any help???
    The better thing I did is to select the entire text, but when the user types something, the default text will be replaced... :(
    Any help?
    Thanks,

    I have a <input type=text...> on a JSP Page with a default value...
    I want this: when the input get focus, it "sends" the cursor to the last position, so the user can
    continue the default value..If this JSP page of yours is being run out of a browser, onFocus, the cursor (or Caret) will be positioned at the top left in NN and at the bottom right in IE. There is no getting around this.

  • Cursor Position in text item - almost there

    Searching the forum I found a post relating to the same problem I am facing but still without solution. The text was :
    "Q:Does anyone know of a way to add a value from a LOV into a text editor, inserting the value at the current cursor position (ie. possibility in the middle of lines of text)."
    Mr. Duncan Mills replied the following but it didn't worked:
    "1) Set Keep Cursor position on in the text field
    2) Have the LOV return into a "working field" possibly hidden
    3) Aftre the LOV has returned a value do a Go_ITEM to the working feild and issue SELECT_ALL; COPY_REGION;
    4) GO_ITEM back to the text Field (the cursor should return to where you left it) and PASTE_REGION."
    I was trying this and I finally found solution just changing "paste_region" to "win_api_shell.sendkeys(whnd,'^V',FALSE)". It's working, but I am getting the message FRM-41008 - Undefined function key.
    How can I disable this message ? (I tried to set :system.message_level to 25 but it didn't work).

  • Text Positioning in Text Field

  • Position of text in a RichTextEditor

    This is my first post, so hello all. I'm learning Flex and getting excited about using it in a project.
    I'm creating a text editor component that allows comments. I'd like it to be similar to the comment feature in the wonderful Buzzword. I've immediately run into difficulty but I hope this says more about my ambition than ability . Any help or advice would be much appreciated.
    Location the text range
    Next I need to know the location of this portion of text. I have tried:
    1. to find the XY coordinates of the text range in the editor
    2. to find the line number of the text range in the editor.
    I have not been able to find a way to do either of these. Am I missing something obvious?
    Identifying a text range
    I need the comments to be adjacent to the line that is being commented. I need to identify the text range in the editor that is associated with the comment. For this I have looked into:
    1. wrapping the text being commented in a span with an ID
    2. add an id to the TEXTFORMAT for identification
    Again, I have not been able to do either of these. I need some kind of anchor in the text.
    Can anyone help me out here, or suggest another way? Thanks a lot.

    If multi-line is not selected, the result you are getting is normal. There is not vertical placement option, but the default for multi-line is at the top of the field.

    does anyone know how I can add text that would be searched by spiders, how I can create metatags and add keywords? When the site is completely finished, I will go in the HTML source and add all this by hand unless someone has a better idea. If it doesn't work, i will recreate the site with freeway, but it is a fair amount of work.
    Has anyone tried to add simple text at the bottom of each page that would simply be a summary of the page in plaintext so that search engine would get some food? I know that hiding text playing with color is not a good idea but what about straight plain text?
    any expert who could shed some light?
    my web, nearly all translated in english, french and dutch, except the menus is at:

    Bernard,
    Hello again! I'm glad to see that you've got all those flags working! Like I've told you before....very classy looking site. In terms of what you are asking, check this thread out...

    This fellow put plain text keywords on his pages and then made them "invisible" by matching the color of the text and background. I think this method would probably work in your favor. Keep in mind that this doesn't determine if or when your site will be found by the search engines, but it may provide simpler bits of information that may affect your ranking once the search engines have found you.
    In terms of preventing your plain text from getting converted to an image, I guess changing the color would not trigger this judging by this most recent report. Try it out and let us know. Good luck to you, Bernard!
