Left justify pages within browser background

How can I left justify my web pages within the browser background? All the iWeb templates that I have seen are center justified, and I cannot find a way to change the justification.

There is no tool in iWeb that will do it at the click of a button.
If you lasso all of your elements you can move them to the left hand side of the page. Either by dragging or by using the cursor keys, (holding the shift key makes each cursor key press 10 pixels instead of one).
Then you can left justify the text in each element by using, Inspector>Text Tab>Text - Color & Alignment.

Drop Shadow of Page on Browser background

I see how I can change the color of the browser background, but is it possible to have a drop shadow effect where the page ends and the browser background begins?
Thanks, Leslie

lnicole - This can be done with a trick.
You know how to make the page background match the browser background. To give the Page a shadowed look, you need to enlarge your page a little more than the shadow you want. Next, you must place a rectangular graphic the size of your original page on top of the Page and in the background of everything you have on the page (i.e. send it to the back). Make this large graphic the same color as your Page and Browser, and then give it the shadow you want.
The result on the published page in your browser is a shadowed background, seemingly for the entire page.
I hope I’ve explained this clearly enough. -Fabe

Question for Varkgirl re: browser backgrounds in iWeb

Hi Varkgirl
Been checking out your iWeb FAQ site (if anyone needs iWeb help, your first port of call needs to be http://web.mac.com/varkgirl/iWeb/iWebFAQ/FAQ%20Home/FAQ%20Home.html), loving your work hun!
Just a quick question - how did you get the browser background? The standard options in the Page Inspector only seem to be colours.
Many thanks!

I think varkgirl is asleep over there in the EST timezone...so I hope she doesn't mind me jumping in here....
Are you talking about the striped background? It's the standard browser background for the "Notebook" theme. If you want to use it you can select the blank template and get rid of the header and footer images.
You can also just take this image.... and use it to tile any other template page of your choosing....

Just look in the Inspector Page tab and under either Page or Browser background, select image and then tile.

Center and Left Justify Web Pages

How can web pages be set up to center when the browser window
is wider than the fixed width web page and left justify when the
window is narrower than the web page? yahool.com is an example of
this type of behaviour. I'm using CS4.

Completely wrong approach. There's no need to use any
positioning at all
(including anywhere in your page).
#frame {
width:1024px; /* too wide in my opinion */
border: 5px solid #669158;
background-color: #F3EDD6;
margin:0 auto;

Flash work slow when the page is in background of browser

I'm developing a game during which a clock which states that every three seconds a soldier will be added to the screen , and another clock that moves the soldier from the left to the right side of screen every 20 milliseconds .
Everything works correctly, until the game rises locate the air. If the user chooses to leave the game for a few minutes and messing with another page in browser , the watches of the Flash game starts to work very slow , which is why the soldiers are moving at low speed and thus accumulate masses of soldiers on screen, while they were supposed to be gone long .
I'm trying to create a " self timer " , instead of dealing with flash clock ( Timer ) , but I got involved with recursion fills the cartridge and creates StackOverFlow error.
I can not use the event Event.ENTER_FRAME etc. , because also this event work slow when the game is in the background
What to do ? Who can help me?

Thank you!
I solved it, similar to what you suggested, through the ACTIVATE event is linked to the stage. That:
                    private function stageDeactivate(e:Event)
                              if (stage != null)
                                        stage.removeEventListener(Event.DEACTIVATE, stageDeactivate);
                                        stage.addEventListener(Event.ACTIVATE, stageActivate);
                                        stopSoldiers();
                    private function stageActivate(e:Event)
                              if (stage != null)
                                        stage.removeEventListener(Event.ACTIVATE, stageActivate);
                                        stage.addEventListener(Event.DEACTIVATE, stageDeactivate);
                                        playSoldiers();

Making a textframe centre within margins but be left justified

I'd like a textframe to size its width automatically and centre itself within page margins, but for the text to remain left justified. Is this possible? e.g. Three pages of poetry with very different line lengths. If possible this would be some sort of general layout that I could then drop different pages of text into

I like the double-click-the-right-handle idea. And if you need to add a poem earlier, add a page using the page palette and all of the custom frames will stay with their poems.
I happen to have an Applescript for shrinking a frame to its longest line and centering it. It's designed to work both for left or centered justified text (I had some poems where the text was centered but the author attribution was right justified, we wanted the right end of that to line up with the right end of whatever the longest line of text is, so shrinking those text frames was important too). You can select all of the frames on a spread and it will adjust each of them to its longest line, or if you've got text selected it will work on whatever frame the cursor is in. I've adapted it below to an 8.5 x 11 page document, but it's pretty straightforward to change. You'll want to define LeftColumnCenter to the horizontal offset, in picas, of the centerline of the left page; and likewise RightColumnCenter to the centerline of the right page.
Assign this a keystroke shortcut, and your job should zip along.
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS3"
tell view preferences of active document
set horizontal measurement units to picas
end tell
-- Change the following numbers to the horizontal offset, in picas, of
-- the vertical line you want the frame to align to on the left and right pages.
set LeftColumnCenter to 25.5
set RightColumnCenter to 76.5
repeat with SelectionCounter from 1 to count of items in selection
set mySelection to item SelectionCounter of selection
if class of mySelection is not text frame then
set myFrames to parent text frames of item SelectionCounter of selection
set myFrame to item SelectionCounter of myFrames
else
set myFrame to mySelection
end if
-- get the boundaries of the selected frame
set OriginalBounds to geometric bounds of myFrame
set OriginalTop to item 1 of OriginalBounds
set OriginalLeft to item 2 of OriginalBounds
set OriginalBottom to item 3 of OriginalBounds
set OriginalRight to item 4 of OriginalBounds
-- figure out if the selected frame is on the right or left page
set ColumnCenter to LeftColumnCenter
if OriginalLeft is greater than 56 then
set ColumnCenter to RightColumnCenter
end if
-- find the length of each line in the frame and remember the longest one
set NumberOfLines to number of lines in myFrame
set LongestLine to 2
tell view preferences
set horizontal measurement units to points
end tell
repeat with myCounter from 1 to NumberOfLines
if justification of line myCounter of myFrame is in {left align, left justified} then
set StartOfLine to horizontal offset of line myCounter of myFrame
set EndOfLine to end horizontal offset of line myCounter of myFrame
set StartofCharacter to horizontal offset of last character of line myCounter of myFrame
set EndofCharacter to end horizontal offset of last character of line myCounter of myFrame
set ThicknessofCharacter to EndofCharacter - StartofCharacter
set LineLength to (EndOfLine - StartOfLine) - ThicknessofCharacter
if LongestLine is less than (LineLength) then
set LongestLine to (LineLength)
end if
end if
if justification of line myCounter of myFrame is in {center align, center justified, fully justified} then
set StartOfLine to horizontal offset of line myCounter of myFrame
set EndOfLine to end horizontal offset of line myCounter of myFrame
set LineLength to EndOfLine - StartOfLine
--+ (point size of last character of line myCounter of myFrame) * 0.05
if LongestLine is less than (LineLength) then
set LongestLine to (LineLength)
end if
end if
end repeat
--figure out the new width of the frame and assign the new bounds to the frame
set HalfLine to LongestLine / 2
set NewLeft to ColumnCenter - (HalfLine)
set NewRight to ColumnCenter + (HalfLine)
set geometric bounds of object reference of myFrame to {OriginalTop, NewLeft, OriginalBottom, NewRight}

Microsoft Word Documents Left Justified on Web Pages

I have a church web site created with iWeb 08. I've been taking sermon outlines from Microsoft Word, copying the text, and pasting it in iWeb. This has been working fine in the past. The Word formatting copies over fine and the indents show up correctly in iWeb and on the web pages being viewed with Safari, Firefox, or IE in Windows.
Within the last month, something has happened. All the sermons are now left justified on the church website, when viewed with any of the browsers. It still looks okay in iWeb 08 though. Has anyone else had this problem? If so, were you able to correct it?

A lot has changed with Apple's hosting servers and software in the last couple of weeks due to the MobileMe changeover and it's not surprising that some things don't work as they once did. It takes little effort to click on the text box in the iWeb page and select the justification you need.
Another way to add the Word page is to take a screenshot of it and add it as an image file. That way all browsers and platforms will see it exactly the same, particularly if you're using a non web safe font.

Page/browser background issue

You still can't beat iWeb for ease of use, though it does have its limitations, for instance: I want to have my page background and browser background be the same color. No problem, except I am still left with a thin outline of the page background (set to 1024 x 768 px) when setting the page background to None. Any idea of how to get rid of that outline so that one sees a continous background where the page size is implied but not actually seen? Does anyone have a suggestion for an iWeb replacement if this is not doable?

This image that illustrates the problem:

Cannot find anyplace to tell a page to wrap within browser margins, so one does not have to slide it back and forth to read each line.

Cannot find anyplace to tell a page to wrap within browser margins, so one does not have to slide it back and forth to read each line::::::::::::
Yes, there are so many pages on-line that -- when made small enough to fit within the margins so one does no have to use a scroll bar on EVERY line, moving it back and forth, back and forth -- look like a FINE-print Bible page (!! tiny !!) if you keep reducing it to fit within the margins.
ALL because we cannot find a place to tell it to WRAP to FIT. Could have sworn I've seen some feature like that somewhere at one time, but if it is here, I cannot find it.
Thank you.

Maybe use a style.
Add code to userContent.css
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/userContent.css
<pre><nowiki>body, body *{ white-space:pre-wrap!important; word-wrap:break-word; }
</nowiki></pre>

Left justify text in book's introduction page?

I don't find any way to left justify the text on "introduction" pages when making a book. Am I missing it, or am I restricted to centered text?

Actually, I discovered that if I create the text in Word, then paste it in, it retains the alignment set in Word, even if different from the template. At least it worked in Classic.

Browser background showing at bottom of page

Hi all,
all the pages on my site (still under construction) measure 700pxW x 480pxW. The browser background is a different colour to the content, but on all pages except the home page the content goes from top to bottom, which is how I want it.
On the home page, the background is showing at the bottom of the page when the content should be going, like the other pages, from top to bottom.
Any ideas?

We can tell more about the problem if we can visit the site to examine it first hand. Otherwise, a guess would be to put an empty text box on the page and drag it down far enough so the footer is lowered to the point where the page content is below the lower edge of the screen. Or increase the page height in the Inspector/Page/Layout pane beyond the 480 size. Maybe more like 800.

Left Justify af:table Pager

JSF/ADF 10.1.3.4
Is there an easy way to left justify an af:table pager control? Or better yet have it show on both left and right.
I have increased the page width to 150% and need to have it show without having to do a horizontal scroll.
Thanks.

It certainly would.
Until you gain some proficiency with HTML and then with CSS,
your experience
with DW will be one of these mysteries after another. The
problem is, that
knowledge would PREVENT you from clicking on the icon that
inserts the
<blockquote> tag (mistakenly identified as an indent in
DW) in the first
place, and would then allow you to find it and remove it once
it has been
used.
Good luck!

Browser background colour and page background colour

On one entry page of my blog, the browser background colour is over-riding the page background gradient colours. I've tried remaking the entry page by duplicating another entry page, but this still happens on just this one page.
Hoping someone will be able to work out why...?

Thank you. It's http://www.noteworthy-women.co.uk/
The page in question is the 29 September entry for the blog page ('rehearsal notes'). This was on the 'Choir Members Only' site, but I've moved it to the 'public pages' site for this discussion. I can leave it there only overnight (British time).
Thanks again.

2 out of 6 pages not loading browser background image

Does anyone know why out of 6 pages on my website, only 2 of them are not loading the choosen browser background image? All other pages load them in when uploaded to the site online. They appear to be correct in iWeb before publishing.
Once they are published, it is just white. If I select a color instead of the image, the color displays. Thoughts?

One more question. I know that when you publish your
site to a non .mac acct, the podcasting code needs to
be changed. Can someone help me out with that? You
click the subsribe button and it launches iTunes, but
then it errors out. Thoughts?
Your RSS URL is invalid: http://www.onetvshow.com/ONE/our%20podcast/rss.xml
www.onetvshow.com is not listed with WHOIS.
Does anyone know of a free/cheap program I can use to
edit some of the code. I need to insert some form
mail code and then also for the podcast code edits.
You are asking the wrong guy if it repetitive and on going basis, I say AppleScript
