Author Table Question
George W. Barrowcliff

I maintain a web site for some friends of mine.

There are a few pages that have contact information for their dealers.

The pages are now split into east and west parts of the US.

i.e. Western Region: http://www.cgsp.net/WestRegion.htm

I want the name of the dealer to be centered in the table cell but the
address, phone number etc to be left justified.

In FP2003, it shows correctly but even in IE 7 everything is left justified.

What can I do to force the formatting to display as it does in FP?

And, one other thing. Since they are adding dealers all the time, is there
an easy way to add the dealers alphabetically without manually moving stuff
around? Maybe even keeping the list in Excel where it is easy to sort it
and importing the list into FP?

Thanks In Advance

GWB

Insert a table into the cell with 2 rows, in the top row place the dealer's name and set the
alignment values for the cell to center, in the bottom row place the remaining content with the
alignment set to left.

Sort in FrontPage
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...&displaylang=en

The align attribute in the <address> tag is not valid HTML, and may be
ignored by browsers.

Try:
<p align="center">Name</p>
<p>Other information</p>

You can then use the sort addin above to sort the table in alphabetical
order.
