CSS text justification with dreamweaver MX

Bananna man

Has anyone had this problem with Dreamweaver MX?

I have set the main text style to justify the text. Sometimes it justify's the text and sometimes it doesnt. Before i upload it and check it in the browser it all seems to be perfectly justified but when i look at it in my broswer (Internet Explorer and Firefox) it only justifies the text some of the time.

Anyone know how to sort this out?

Thanks

It might be styling the justification on a 'span' and if your text is over multiple lines, the justification will only appear on the first line. Use a div if that's the problem.

This is a section of code from the site. The first paragraph isint justifying but the second one is:

You've not actually posted the CSS so it's hard to tell the problem. However you've messy code there, get rid of the :

<span class="text_main"><br><br></span>


At a quick glance I'd say the problem is as I assumed above, in the second paragraph you've styled the <P> tag, while in the first paragraph you've styled a <SPAN> tag.

Cheers, that got it sorted. I had styled the span class but the <p> tags were messing it up.
