I imported my products (over 30,000) from my old 4.5. In the old days I used the <pre> and </pre> html tags.
Now those mess up the page formatting. Here is the code :
<pre><font size=1 face=arial> Product Specifications Item Dimensions: 18.6" w x 18.5" d x 22.5" h Electrical Specification: 115 volts, 60 Hz, 6 A Built-In Options: 10-port Drying Chamber Style: Benchtop Ice Holding Capacity: 4.5 L Collector Temperature: -50°C, -58°F Electrical Standard: Domestic Drying Accessory: 10-port, permanently installed Compliance: UL 61010A-1, CAN/CSA C22.2 No. 1010.1 Vacuum Pump Required: 86 L/Min. or larger displacement </pre>
Can someone let me know what mod so I need so the page will format right? Is there some kind of a <pre> alternative in CSS? THis effects 1000''s of pages so editing each one individually would be out of the question. I am looking to do a search and replace on the <pre> and </pre> tags.
Thanks

i''m not sure if this is correct or not, please try to add this in basic-style.css is you''e using version 8
pre { display: block; font-family: monospace; white-space: pre; margin: 1em 0; }

Thanks Serj, Ill try it. When I comment out the <pre> and make it <!<pre> and </pre>--> it does format right as long as I also comment out the font tags. I''ll let you know. You are a big help! |

Do you have a work around for <font size=1 face=arial>
I have commented those out with a giant search and replace but would rather have the formatting if possible.
If you get this one I''ll name my next child after you! |

Sure, in the old days before CSS I used the html tag of <font size=1 face=arial> to format text size and face. I didn''t use font family, I just used the individual font. When I imported my old products database those were left in the cdescription and extended description fields.
I think the answer may be to replace that font tag with <span style="font-family: arial; font-size: 8pt;"> but I am not a very good css programmer. I am a hack at asp but that''s about it! Right now I have those commented out with <! (dash dash)<font size=1 face=arial> (dash dash)> and it doesn''t seem to be an issue but with so many products I may just not have seen an issue yet.
btw.. loved your video''s. |

if you want to set the font globally, then try to add this in basic-style.css:
html * { font-size: 1em !important; color: #000 !important; font-family: Arial !important; }
or if only for span tag, then add this:
span { font-size: 1em !important; color: #000 !important; font-family: Arial !important; }
anyway, I''m just a fanatic fan of Serj Tankian and system of a down - lol, this just my nickname
but I think I would be glad if you really name your next child with Serj Tankian
lol

OIC! I thought maybe you were him. Well you are a big help. I don''t think those tags will overwrite the html in those fields. I have been doing search and replace on the database and for the most part have eliminated the issue. I am just commenting out all the html font tags and so far so good. I think I will put a button on the top of all pages the clients can click on if a page doesn''t format right it can send me the page. There are too many products to go through it item by item. You have been a big help! |
