Anyone having NVU problems?

7 replies
Something has been happening lately that's really weird when I've been using NVU.

When I view my page in Firefox it is fine and formats in the center, but, when I view it in Internet Explorer my page is formatting over to the left.

Has anyone else had this happening...and...does anyone know how to fix it?

Thanks,

Kenneth

      Kompozer is the unofficial NVU bug-fix release...according to the site.

    I've experienced something similar. Are you using tables? Consider this example:

    I have a table that is centered. The table width is 570px. The table has only one row and one column. Within the <td> </td> tags of the table, the width is set to 422px.

    When viewing this in Firefox it will look perfectly centered. When viewing this in IE it will appear off-center.

    In short, check anyhere in your html where "width" is specified.

    Here is an example of the problem:

    <table
    style="width: 570px; text-align: left; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"
    border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2">
    <tbody>
    <tr>
    <td style="width: 422px;">
    <center>Fred</center>
    </td>
    </tr>
    </tbody>
    </table>

      Hi Kenneth,

      I've also had that happen.

      What I have done on a few occasions is to add a line of code - <div align="center"> - right after the <body> tag.

      It looks like this...

      </head>
      <body style="direction: ltr;">

      <div align="center">

      It keeps the page centered even though there are other <div> tags following that line of code.

      Hope this helps, but as they say, your milage may vary.

    Thanks to everyone for the replies!

    I've downloaded komposer and am going to try it out.

    I'll get back with a quick review of how I've found it.

    I've just downloaded Kompozer from Download.com but every time I try to unzip it using WinZip it crashes about 90% through.

    Very strange. I'm on a new laptop and I've unzipped loads of files with no problems.

    Anyone have any ideas?

      PM me your email and I'll send you an easy to install package of Kompozer...I had my programmer make an install .exe package for this so no unzipping required...just d/l - double click and the install will handle the rest.
