I have created & downloaded a 72 page Super Web Site:
www.gaslightpolitics.com . I am relatively happy with the Laptop / Desktop [MAIN]. I have a scrolling text box containing differing length text files on every page. Thanks to you guys here, i inserted the following Widget code on each page:
First create your text box as normal making the box the width you want and to accommodate the text in length. Then select it with the selector tool, using the yellow tag icon give it a name eg: ScrollIndex1 also give it the name HTMLBlockText.
Next create a rectangle, then using the placeholder tab select 'HTML code (head)' and paste the following code:
<style type="text/css">
#ScrollIndex1 {
height: 390px;
padding-left: 5px;
padding-right: 5px;
border-color: #6699CC;
border-width: 5px;
border-style: solid;
overflow: auto;
}
</style>
The text(above) must be the same name that you first gave the text box in this case its 'ScrollIndex1'.
I am now attempting to create similar scrolling text boxes on [640px] and [Mobile] pages with zero success. EVERYTHING I have tried, ends up with just a very long text box without scrolling.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
ALSO:
Since I am creating this entire web site on my laptop, I have been unable to Preview Web Page or Preview Web Site for anything other than [Main] pages. The ONLY way I have been able to see any change results to the [640px] and [Mobile] pages is to repeatedly Publish the entire Web Site and then look at the pages using my Tablet and Cell Phone - THERE HAS TO BE AN EASIER WAY....
BTW: Xara Web Designer Premium V: 11.2.5.42127
Thanks in advance for any help
