Hi Guy's, When aligning text under bulletpoint format - okay in EasyWeb - not when published and viewed in Safari Hyperlinks - colours different between EW and Safari, e.g. blue in EW and yellow in Safari (mostly, though a couple are as required!) Hyperlink is invisible when text is placed over coloured background - shows up when scrolled over. I'm getting close to wanting to publish on web, would be great if I cound find a way to refine these challenges. Thanks. Great support Roddy and Paul this past couple of weeks, much appreciated - learned a lot. |

Did you look at this topic about lists? http://ragesw.net/easyweb-beta/viewtopic.php?f=5...t=57 Is it any help? With regard to the hyperlinks issue, check to make sure you have set the normal and visited colors the same. ------------------------------- Roddy Website: http://everwebwidgets.com Contact: http://everwebwidgets.com/ewWidgets-home/contact.html NOTE: I am an EverWeb user and NOT affiliated with EverWeb!

Hi! I downloaded Easyweb yesterday and I've been transferring my site from iWeb. First of all, you are doing a great job!! Though version 18 seems pretty stable, I have noticed some annoyances I thought I should report and requests I would like to submit! First of all, this is my iWeb site: http://www.piranhastudio.gr And this is my Easyweb version: http://www.piranhastudio.gr/t 1. Since my background is dark, I use fonts in white. While setting the font colors, I noticed that when I use white as a font color (255,255,255), the css does not mention color at all, so after the (full) export, the browser displays the fonts using default black. The trick I used to override it (other than editing the css), was to use a slightly darker tone (254,254,254). It just worked. 2. Though I use the "Centered Layout", my iPhone prefers to display it as "Left" 3. My iPhone shows the telephone numbers as blue and underlined in the Easyweb version. I would like to have an option for that (I habe used the same apple <head> code in both versions.) 4. I would really much like to have the option of a window-resizable static background image, that would fill the screen! Thank you very much for your time! |

HI, 1. This works OK for me. I'll need you to send me your easyweb project to test this here 2. Can you enter this code in the site's head code section; <meta name="viewport" content="width=900" /> And let me know if it works OK on your iPhone 3. Not sure why this happens will have to investigate 4. Can you show a website that has an example of what you are looking for? ------------------------------- Paul EverWeb Developer |

[1] Colors in CSS are usually expressed as hex color numbers. Use browser safe colors... The font styles in EasyWeb are in the text styles.css file and your light colors are #fefefe .Style8{font-family: 'Futura-Medium'; A lot of people find white on black hard to read and sore on their eyes so I tend to go to #cccccc [2] Quote: Though I use the "Centered Layout", my iPhone prefers to display it as "Left" Since your website pages are not dynamic it doesn't matter about alignment. Use the "viewport" meta tag and set it to your web page width. [3] iPhones are phones and so they interpret phone numbers a links. You could create your phone number as a hyperlink and style it with no underline and have the normal, visited and rollover colors the same as the rest of the text. If you are expecting visitors to view your site on smart phones, why not have a proper phone link? [code:3eafhc6v]<a href="tel://18881234321"><img src="img/phone.png" alt="Phone Me" />Phone: [888] 123-4321</a>[/code:3eafhc6v] Note that, in the above code, I have put the anchor with the "phone" href, an image src, an alt tag and some text. You don't have to use them all - just use the pieces you need. [4] I see that you are using the "iWeb Style" javascript hack to insert your background image. This is not necessary with EasyWeb since you can use CSS and insert it into the site wide head code box if you require it on every page of your site... <style type="text/css">You can also use jQuery BackStretch to insert a background image, two or more clickable images or even a background slider... http://roddymckay.com/EasyWeb/backstretch.html * Note that you shouldn't just copy over your iWeb HTML Snippets. Redo them in EasyWeb and put the various types of code in the appropriate places in the HTML doc. CSS in the Head Code box HTML in a Snippet Setup javascript in the Footer Code box Also, pay attention to the position of the elements in the HTML doc. For example, the movie on your home page comes before the text and all that social media stuff but you have inserted it after them. ------------------------------- Roddy Website: http://everwebwidgets.com Contact: http://everwebwidgets.com/ewWidgets-home/contact.html NOTE: I am an EverWeb user and NOT affiliated with EverWeb!

Boy I thought this was supposed to be "easy" web ;) But as for the op's comments, I think we've been experiencing the same thing - inconsistencies upon publish. This beta hasn't been crashing on me too much, but publishing is a bit of a nightmare. I thought I resolved my problem by trashing my 'publish to folder' contents and just doing it fresh, then uploading that. It cleared up most of my issues with text fonts and colours and positions changing. Then I tried to fix the 2 little incongruities by deleting a letter and publishing changes. And finally I was back in business! That is until I viewed my site on my iPhone. Previously it's been a mirror image to my desktop. Now, it's all buggered. I'll send Paul my link to investigate.

Please make new topics when discussing issues instead of posting under other people's topics with new/different/or additional issues. This makes it very difficult to respond to the original issues. This forum is organized so that you can create posts for each of your issues and when people have similar issues they can easily find a solution. Quote: Hyperlinks - colours different between EW and Safari, e.g. blue in EW and yellow in Safari (mostly, though a couple are as required!) This could be because your visited hyperlink color is set to yellow. Check your visited hyperlink color and if it is yellow, this is most likely the issues. Quote: 1. Since my background is dark, I use fonts in white. While setting the font colors, I noticed that when I use white as a font color (255,255,255), the css does not mention color at all, so after the (full) export, the browser displays the fonts using default black. The trick I used to override it (other than editing the css), was to use a slightly darker tone (254,254,254). It just worked. This should be fixed for beta 19. Quote: That is until I viewed my site on my iPhone. Previously it's been a mirror image to my desktop. Now, it's all buggered. For me your website looks the exact same on my iPhone as it does on my desktop computer, but maybe I am missing something. Please don't post things like "it's all buggered." because that doesn't help track down the issues. Instead post the pages that are different on your desktop vs. your iPhone. Screenshots would be helpful too. It is difficult to track down issues when I don't know where too look for them specifically. ------------------------------- Paul EverWeb Developer |
