I'm afraid I would strongly recommend *not* using Nvu. It produces awful markup. It tends to use spans for everything, but doesn't delete them correctly if you change the format (eg from bold to italic). You then end up with nested spans which produce unexpected visual results, and to fix this you have to go into the markup anyway.
I suggested Nvu to my son for a school project, but he got so frustrated with "why does this heading look different from that one, when I've told them both to be H1?" that I told him I would go through the markup and tidy it up for him. It took 3 hours to tidy up 4 or 5 pages, the markup was so awful. So never again! YMMV, of course.
This is exactly my experience. I used NVU once in the past year... I actually persisted with it for a while too. The nested span thing was a nightmare. Everything is fine-ish if you create the content, and then do the markup just once, but if you change your mind on anything, then the nesting gets out of control, and do it a few times and you webpage starts to do funny things.
I've never had any problem like this, and I have used Nvu off and on for a couple years. Were you using the graphic mode? I have to admit that I have never tried it in graphic mode. I've only used the text mode. In windows I use an OLD program called HTMLed. It was originally written for Windows 3 and updated to 95. As far as I know it was never updated again after that. It might be a bit difficult to find, but it is still out there. -- (o:]>*HUGGLES*<[:o) Billie Walsh The three best words in the English Language: "I LOVE YOU" Pass them on! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
