Text spacing in Dreamweaver

LuckyFinigan

What I basically have is a list of stuff the goes down the page, on the left I have titles and on the right I want to get relevant names to match up with the titles. I cant seem to figure out how to do this. I know its some kind of formatting issue, when I hit space bar it only moves over one space so it doesn't look like I can do it that way.

Thanks

If I read you right you need to create a list and style it.

Also sounds like it could be a table of data:

Thanks, would you be able to style the table so there's no boarder around it?

Graham

In the table tag add border="0"

<table border="0">

Tables for tabular data, divs for layout, so which you use depends on whether it's for data or layout.

Can also use css for border styling.

table, tr, td {border: 0px;}

Beware of using Dreamweaver design view, it doesn't always work out as intended across browsers.

+1 on that.

For the kind of basic html the OP is attempting at the moment I don't think there will be too many problems using the design view as an approximation of what will appear in a browser.

That's not to say it wouldn't be good practice to test any work in progress on as many browsers/platforms as possible.
