Justify Text not working

[Guest]

Hi,

I'm just trying to justify some text in a cell. I using a Dynamic Web Template that tells the 'editable table' that all text in it should be justified. The html shows that the that the tag is set correctly.

Something interesting, when I went in to the html to try to edit the alignment manually the intellisense didn't offer 'justify' it only offer 'right', 'left', 'center'.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
how are you doing this? I'm pretty sure there isn't a justify attribute in
HTML. There certainly is in HTML in CSS though.
<style type="text/css">
..myClass{
text-align:justify;
}
</style>

<td class="myClass">justified text</td>

Nothing that can go wrong here

John,
Both 2002 and 2003 have a Justify button on the toolbar right next to "Align Right." I've used it.

Use the justify icon on the toolbar.

I've used the Justify button as well as hand coded but neither works. You check out the site at

Apply it to the <p> tag, not the <td> tag, like this: <p align="justify">

 

[Thomas A. Rowe]

Select the paragraph and then set the justify attribute, this will apply it to the <p> tag, and it
will appear as <p align="justify"> in your html / code view.

Currently you are applying it to the table cell.

yes there is an HTML attribute - add it to the <p> tag as in: <p align="justify">
is full justify (no jagged margins).

 

[Andrew Murray]

looks OK to me - the way "justify" works is if a word at the end of a line is to
long to fit on the line, it doesn't break it with a hyphen, it just wraps to the
next line. If you're talking about those paragraphs in the right hand column - I
think they're as "justified" as they can be made.

The paragraph that starts "Dear Fellow....." add in code view align="justify" in
the <p> tag - there is nothing there telling the paragraph to be justified - I
think you have to do it for all paragraphs, since when you close with the </p> it
goes back to default for the next opening <p> unless you add the justify
attribute in there.

I disagree, justify is just that, it will produce extra space to ensure the text goes from left margin to right margin irregardless of breaks.

When I open in FP it's justified.

sorry, must be thinking of something else. - yes it spaces out the lines to make
even right and left margins.

Fortunately, most of us don't view web pages in FP. We use a browser. So,
the justify attribute will have to go in the <p> tag, not the <td> tag.

It doesn't always work out clicking a button and generating FPHTML.
