Html

I am having trouble finding the reason that the tables in this page donot center properly.Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Jes, you have some misplaced ul tags after "Education". One set starts right outside the first table after the Education one.

[ZURKE]

Also, Shouldn't your CENTER tags be within the BODY?

[jes]

I hadn't noticed the problems with the ul tags. Thank you MJC. That worked fine.
ZURKE- What do you mean about being within the body tags? There is one at the top and one at the bottom. As far as I know, that is all that I need.

Hope you don't mind me making some revisions. See how you may add "center" as an element of the P and TABLE tags.

When writing HTML or any kind of code, imposing a standard tabbed style helps you spot mistakes. Exactly how the style looks is up to you -- just as long as you find it easy to read and follow.

[ZURKE]

yes, I realize that now. I saw the tbody tag and made the assumption it was the same.
As I was.

Same page (resume.html (http://www3.sk.sympatico.ca/ajohn/resume.html) ). I want to add a button to the page that will allow the person to print "resume 2003.doc" wich is the same thing again but it is in MS Word format so it is better for printers

jes,

Doing what you want makes one big assumption: that everyone has Microsoft Word installed on their computers. And that assumption is false.

One of the primary, underlying principles of HTML is that it works independent of computer platform, operating system or software. Which means that anyone using any computer capable of accessing the World Wide Web can access your resume in HTML format. Once you put it in Microsoft Word format then you are restricting it to only people who have Microsoft Windows and Microsoft Word. As much as Bill Gates would like to think different, that is not everyone who uses the World Wide Web.

If there is a problem printing your current HTML version, I'd suggest you focus on fixing that version.

Jes, Another option would be to put the document in PDF format. These are designed for printing, and will display on any machine that has the reader installed, covering sleddog's post about tying yourself to Bill.

Or, you could save the Word document as "rich text" RTF, and put that on the page between <pre>...........................</pre> tags.

Of the two options, I would prefer the first. If you don't have anything to make a PDF file with, PM me a copy of the file in Word DOC format, and I'll convert it for you.

I will just leave it as it is. It prints fine as a web page anyway.

[jes]

How do I extend a webpage even though the extended part has nothing on it?

If you don't have anything to make a PDF file with, PM me a copy of the file in Word DOC format, and I'll convert it for you.

David...Kudos! ;)

Even though jes elected not to take you up on your offer, just the same, you are a "Righteous Dude!" :)

You gotta love this place! :cool:

[jes]

My worrey about the .pdf file was that it would not be convenient if I was to update it...but I apreaciate the offer.

[jes]

How do I put the current time and date at the top of my web page? I have tried looking at the source for a page that uses it (http://www.assiniboine.net/public/default.asp) but can make no sense of the code.
