Bruce, I'm having a bit of trouble with this bit of code:





It's on my homepage (in GuideML), but it comes up with the error "Attribute value must be quoted" after the tag. Any ideas what's happening, and how to fix it?

Cheers! smiley - winkeye

Hi

These are attributes
WIDTH=468 HEIGHT=60 BORDER=1 smiley - smiley

These are quoted attributes
WIDTH="468" HEIGHT="60" BORDER="1" smiley - winkeye

In GuideML all attributes must be quoted attributes.

hope it helps

Doh! I completely missed those bits - the code was a cut-and-paste job, which works in HTML (but not GuideML, as I found out...)

Cheers!

Good - 'cos now I've got that to work, I have a slightly strange problem. All the 'boxholder' and 'header' elements which appear below the bit of code I had trouble with before are now appearing at full screen width - rather than having the border extend all the way to the bottom. Perhaps it's easier to understand when you see the problem. But I haven't got a clue why it's happening. Have you?

No problem - got it sussed. Problem with one of the tables, although I still don't know why it had the effect it did. smiley - bigeyes
