I am trying to make the text stay inside the table so it doesn't cut off at the edge. making the table larger doesn't work because then it just breaks the line in a different place. What am I doing wrong? Here is the code. What is the <span lang> stuff mean?<br />
<br />
<p align="left"><font SIZE="2">The <span lang="en-us">BBR </span>fork and shock springs<span lang="en-us"> are a must have for anybody who wants more performance out of the lightly sprung stock TT-R. These heavy duty springs hold the bike up into the plush part of the suspension, improve handling, and prevent metal-to-metal bottoming.</span></font></td><br />
</tr><!--content-->I don't see the problem. it worked fine for me. I made the table width=200 and it stayed inside the table.<br />
<br />
I even made the table width=100% and it looked fine.<!--content-->to make the td contain all the text, use <td nowrap><!--content-->This is driving me up the wall! I should add that I am using Front Page 2002. I am not a HTML person (yet). Until I learn it though FP will have to do. On my screen, the table looks like crap. So I tried making a text box instead, and as I started changing each one, the one before it deleted too! I didn't select the text box and the text was not linked or anything (that I know of) but when I deleted the text that was not in a text box, the box went away too, as well as the picture behind it. I am going nuts here. If FP is as bad as I hear, and I can't figure it out (all the others are either too simplistic or too complex for beginners) then I must have a problem. This is insane.<!--content-->I would suggest getting Meacromedia Dreamweaver instead of FrontPage. FrontPage uses horrible HTML, such as that span tag.<!--content-->What is the span tag? What does it do? I finally got the page figured out by creating text boxes.<!--content-->Originally posted by Firecracker <br />
