So did I! It changed my life! When my assignment officer called to ask if I knew how to design web pages I was able to answer in the affirmative, and landed a great job in a great city!
My boss thinks I am smart, just because of what I learned here!
BLOCKQUOTE only does a left indent, but leaves the right margin alone.
Any tips for some simple HTML code that will do the trick?
Thanks!
Trying a <table> tag would work...
This particular table is 65% as wide as the screen. If you don't see the wrap, resize your browser until you do. To duplicate this, type <table width=65%>, and don't forget to close the table with the </table> tag. Of course, you can change the width percent to your liking. |
The <blockquote>/<table> combo also will automatically put a line between the table and anything appearing afterward.
This table is also 65% as wide as the screen, but it has a <blockquote> tag before the <table> tag. Again, if you don't see the margins, resize the browser until you do. Don't forget to close with a </table> tag, followed by a </blockquote> tag.
While the <blockquote> tag doesn't always appear to have a right margin because of word wrap, it does indent the same width as the left margin. Observe:
This blockquoted text is aligned on the right margin using the <div align=right> tag (don't forget to close with the </div> tag).
Bookmarking and Bump, TPT!
Thanks for the lesson!
I don't think "blink" ever did show up in MS IE and "marquee" didn't show up in Netscape as I recall. I don't know why.
Feel any younger? :-)
Testing, testing...
I don't happen to have "sand" font on my 'puter so it just shows up as regular old Times New Roman (Western).
Looks like it should have worked though.
I'm just your friendly temp drill instructor.
We can never have too many of those and none should ever be considered "temp". Heck, you probably know more about this stuff than I do. I know there are numerous folks here that do.
Compared to the skills I've seen displayed in these threads over the years, On a good day, I'd rate myself as incredibly average.
I left click on the picture, then go to properties. The information comes up, but it will not let me copy it. I need help!
My Macintosh was slow as heck, but it was easy to use :-(
Hey back atcha harpo11!!!
. . . and lots o FReepers are playin' in it! Ain't it great! (I hope JohnRob doesn't lose sleep over any problems this causes though . . .)
It ain't slow and it ain't no steenking PC! :0)
I would encourage everyone to stop by the Flag Thread and learn how to fly your state flag on your profile page. The Flag Thread is educational, entertaining, fun, and FReepers can practice their new found HTML skills there. Everyones welcome. Come on over.
Or their country flag like this.or any combination.

Sure is. I hope so too !
On my main site there is a link to Patriotism. On that page is the link to my:
