Some HTML Only Help Please

[flyingpoint]

Andy, Mike, BWG, et al -

Could someone take a quick look at www.flyingpointroad.com? I'm have a hard time figuring out some basic HTML.

I'm trying to style the "Help" page. I thought I set the font for that gallery in my customization section and then put some inline commands in the gallery description.

But some of it isn't working --- for example, the basic <p></p> commands. It's got to be something goofy that I'm doing.

And what's the best way of setting a font size for the body of that section?

Thanks again

Steve

SteveI'm not sure what you are trying to achieve. But as a general thing, html commands have to be put between html tags. So if you are putting stuff in a albumDescription box for instance, start with < html> and end with < /html> (without the blanks).

Let me try again :

1.) How do I put some basic paragraph breaks in the copy that's there?
2.) And what's the best way of setting a font size for the body of that section?

Let me try again :

1.) How do I put some basic paragraph breaks in the copy that's there? Do you want specific paragraph ( < p> ) or do you just want an 'empty line'? In the last case you can use < br> (no spaces after the < )

2.) And what's the best way of setting a font size for the body of that section?the way i would do it, is create a < div> around what i want to style. Give it a class or id and you can style in your CSS.

example; put the following in the html< div class="helppage"> Your text goes here< div> that would allow you to put this in your CSS:
.helppage {
font-weight: bold;
}

That helped greatly. Thanks.

Any suggestion on how to affect font size? I've got "font-size:12px" in the CSS, but it's clearly not working.

Wrong command? Or is something taking precedent?
