Text Rendering in Browsers

I am just starting with EasyWeb which seems quite promising. I am having less than a WYSIWYG experience, however. I have built a home page (http://www.stage-door.com/test/index.html) which looks fine in EasyWeb but is noticeably different in Safari 6.0.5 - the navigation bar spills over to another line and the text (Times) is rendered differently. Interestingly the same page looks great in Firefox 23. I have started an index page (http://www.stage-door.com/test/stage-door-index.html) which doesn't render in either Safari or Firefox. I have screen captures of all of the above but the files are too large for upload. Chris H

Hi Chris, Your page looks fine to me in Safari 6.0.5 and Firefox 23. I'll need to see screenshots of what you see. You can email them to https://billing.ragesw.com/submitticket.php ------------------------------- Paul EverWeb Developer |

After a lot of experimenting I have found that my main problem was making the text boxes too tight in EasyWeb so that when they text was rendered in Safari it started to wrap. As for my long index page, I was able to figure out how to make a text box fit into the content section and expand with new additions. Safari is still not as good on a desktop as it is on an iPad but that is not your problem.

The thing is, you might want to have a tight text box, especially if you're using a shape fill. How do we know what is too tight, until we publish and find our text spilling over on the next line? Should we be giving an extra 10 pixels, 20? Or is this an EW bug?

The same thing happened in iWeb if the box was too tight. The advice was to give the text room to breathe. Have you tried adding an inset margin to see if that helps? ------------------------------- Roddy Website: http://everwebwidgets.com Contact: http://everwebwidgets.com/ewWidgets-home/contact.html NOTE: I am an EverWeb user and NOT affiliated with EverWeb!

The only way to guarantee an exact appearance is to use images. We made this a bit better for firefox in beta 21 though. iWeb did have similar issues too. ------------------------------- Paul EverWeb Developer |
