How can I cancel span class="text" ?

I've been working on a web page, and I've spent much of my
time deleting
<span class="text">, along with the closing
</span> tag. Dreamweaver is
inserting them automatically. Is there some way to turn this
feature off?
Thanks.

That's how I used to insert apostrophes. I just visually
selected the
character that looks like an apostrophe - &#8217; - and
used it in all
my articles. But a member of this newsgroup recently informed
me that
&#8217; isn't an apostrophe - it's a single right quote
(apparently
designed to complement &#8216;.
I then asked what code DOES constitute an apostrophe, and my
understanding is that there is no code for an apostrophe.
Apparently, an
apostrophe is represented by a single slanted mark that looks
like
something like an apostrophe.
I just tried to copy one from one of my web pages to this
e-mail without
success until I copied it in code view: ’
I don't know what it will look like once I send this message,
but here
it is again to the left of a "stick-figure" apostrophe I
created by
simply pushing a key on my keyboard:
Funny thing is, I used to work hard at tracking those things
down and
deleting them. I thought they were Windows annoyances or
something
similar. As I recall, I couldn't do a proper search and
replace for them
in Dreamweaver on my PC; I had to copy the entire article
into Notepad.
Weird.
Anyway, I asked some related questions on another forum and
came away
with the impression that you cannot insert proper apostrophes
with
Dreamweaver, nor did I figure out how to do it in any other
software
program. Pretty amazing, but I can only assume other writers
do what I
did - grab a good apostrophe on the Internet and copy and
paste it in
all their work.
I was going to ask another question: How does one create
stylized, or
literary apostrophes that gracefully curve as you increase
the size of
your text? I could have sworn &#8217; did take on a
curved appearance as
it increases in size.
However, I just pasted it alongside one of those simple
slanted
apostrophes with no numerical code, then increased the text
size in my
browser and see no difference. Neither one looks especially
cool.
Honestly, all this special character stuff ranks with SQL
injection as
one of web design's biggest mysteries. ;)

  • How can I cancel a scheduled text notification?

    Hi.
    How can I cancel a scheduled text notification? There is no "Cancel" in the history panel. On the right side there's Status "Preparing" and that's it.
    Could you help me out?
    Best regards,
    Dennis

    Login to Folio Producer > Notification. Click on cancel on relevant queued notification.
    Click YES on warning popup. This would cancel the Scheduled text notification. Contact DPS Enterprise Support if you face any issues, contact information is avilable in DPS dashboard.

  • How can I get a match text effect in a Choice

    How can I get a match text effect in a Choice; I mean, for instance, that if a type a "p" the first choice item that begins with a "p" should be automatically selected

    Here is a pretty simple example. Keep in mind that I am coverting all comparison characters to UpperCase. If you allow LowerCase characters in you Choice items then remove the appropriate Character.toUpperCase() calls.

  • How can I get Multi-color text it a swing componet?

    How can I get Multi-color text it a swing componet?
    I've tryed JTextPane and JEditorPane.
    If they support having text in more then one color then I don't see how.
    I want to make a color-coded Java editor in Java, but I can't color-code if I can only have one color.
    JComponent.setForeground(Color fg)
    is not what I need.
    maybe Java doesn't support it yet.
    but I hope it does.
    Please help, thanks.

    I've made you a little example with a coloured JEditorPane and JTextPane:

  • How can I cancel a printing task?

    I began printing a tex in a HP Photosmart Premium from my iPhone, but I realized that the text is too long (97 pages). How can I cancel this printing?

    Double press the home button on the iPhone and it will reveal Print Center.  You can cancel the print job there.  The printer may have a red 'x' that is shown while printing.  This red X will also cancel the job.

  • How can I get just the text to resize, rather than the entire web page?

    I used to be able to re-size just text on a webpage by typing Ctrl + +. Today, the entire webpage re-sizes, and when I move to another page it reverts. (I see this mostly in Facebook.). Why did this change, and can I go back to having just the text re-size?
