I don't quite know how to describe this but here goes.

Some of the Links on our Class Website are not spaced right and the Page Title is cut off. The must be some kind of spacing issue there but I don't know how to fix it. Could the School Photo be causing this?

The Links I am talking about are the "40 Year Reunion Info"..."Announcements" and the "Lost & Found". The page titles are cut off on these and I can also see the text seems to be going out too far for some reason.

If this problem has been addressed elsewhere....just point and push me in the right direction...but don't push too hard....I am old...hehe!

Thanks for any help!

All 3 pages contain elements that are too wide for the page. Some are more difficult to spot than others. For instance on one page you had so many underscores in a row that it blew out the page, which is the exact same issue as the "hard" space issue, but in this case was underscores instead of hard spaces. On another page you had a table that was over 700 pixels wide, blowing out the page, but nothing was inside the table so it was very difficult to see unless you switched to source code view.

I want you to read three threads that will fully explain all 3 problems you had here. I fixed them all while I was in there seeing what the problems were, but these three threads below will teach you how to fix issues like this yourself next time:

Well.....after doing my assigned Homework.....I am now (hopefully) technically rehabilitated so I won't make those mistakes again.

By the way....my Hubby makes homemade Maple Syrup from our Box Elder tree sap....almost as good as the real thing...but it is an aquired taste. Laughing
