For some reason my opening comments on my survey page are cut off on the left side at the first 5 lines. I put some periods in front of the title so it would not be covered. Is there a way to correct this so it formats properly? I like this style of page layout best and do not want to change it (since there are so few layout options). Here is my survey page link below: http://www.sphs72.com/member_dosurvey.cfm?SurveyID=2360

![]() I removed all the ........ before your survey title but was unable to duplicate what you are describing in Firefox, Internet Explorer, or Safari. Do you have oversized fonts turned on or something like that?

No. I got frustrated with it and just got rid of all of the introduction I had typed. Without it, it formats perfect. I will try it again later and send you a screen shot and print out what the source code shows if it happens when I try it again. Now I am having a problem with getting music to work. I set up my playlist on playlist.com and copied the code but can not figure out how to properly set it up on the page. I am trying to add the playlist code to home page. I am trying to copy the code to last announcement block I have set up. All I get is the code printing out. It looks like this on the page: I can't use the link button to format it because it is more than just a link. How do I do this?

![]() Most likely in your instructions you put something very large, such as a whole ton of spaces in a row, an oversized image, or a super long hyperlink. All of those things will "break" your page formatting because it gives the system nowhere to wrap. If you post your instructions back up we can fix the problem in about 2 seconds probably. I see your playlist is working on your home page, so I'm assuming you figured out you needed to click on the "Source" button in the upper left corner of your editor before pasting in the playlist code.

I did none of those things you mentioned. I rechecked many times. But as you can probably see on the web site now there seems to be a format problem. Can you see what it is. It worked finally last night throughout today and then all of a sudden the page format changed on its own. I did not make any changes to the home page and can not find what has happened. the only changes I made were text additions to two "in Memory" pages of classmates. Would that somehow affect the home page layout?

![]() It's because your hyperlinks are too long to fit in the space where you are putting them. You need to put them behind regular clickable text instead. I answered this question in another thread and that thread can be viewed here.

Thank you. I understand this now and it has cleared up a lot of things. BUT...since yesterday I somehow lost use of the editor. It does not show up now when I go into pages to edit them. Did I click on something? I can't find it on any pages necessary to do edits. The only thing is the edit box with the html code or text in it.

Okay, the edit box is now working and I have re-formatted the links under the word descriptions. That is cool.
