Aligning the text in navigation buttons - 4/11/2001 13:45:00   
Is it possible to have the text in themed navigation buttons on 2 lines instead of 1?

Some of my wording for pages is rather long and doesn't fit properly unless I can do this.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Nope - can't be done. Check this thread for more info: http://www.frontpagewebmaster.com/ubb/Forum1/HTML/004666.html

Thanks for the very prompt reply, I thought that was going to be the answer. Oh well, such is life!

Thanks again.

I wouldn't say that. Here is what I do.
Just create a table with a certain number of pixels. You will have to play around with it a bit to get it where you like it, and then insert the nav bar inside.

That will work to get the nav bar on two lines, but there isn't a way to get the text onto two lines within each button. Maybe MS will come up with this in the new version? (doubtful, but we can hope!)

It can be a real pain at times, but I think MS had the idea to help folks rmember to keep it simple.

No, it's not their place, but if you think about it, a lot of the FP features push the author into the direction of the accepted norms.

I hope they don't change it. I really hate to visit a site and have to read tons of words just to figure out one or two links.

Hi,

I hope they do change it - the people behind FP are much too fond of pushing people to accept their norms - if I want my text on 2 lines I expect to be allowed to do it.

Cheers

I'm using the new FrontPage XP and can't manage to create the text on 2 lines so we'll have to wait for the next version of FP. When will that be, 6 months, a year? It just gets (or seems to) quicker and quicker between new versions!
I'm not knocking the benefits that a newer version brings, just the time frames which seem to be getter closer together and seem to be there to boost the profits of good ole' Bill Gates.
There, I finally got that off my chest, phew!
