Dreamweaver WONT let me have Spaces in text .... ??

I've just learnt invisible Text gets you banned.....

I have included quite alot of invisible text on my website....

See the invisible text here......

Then....SELECT ALL the Text on the page(PRESS Ctrl + A), and VIEW
==> you will see where I have used invisible text,,,,,

But I had to, i had to get those invisible spaces didn't I ? dreamweaver makes it hard to make invisible spaces.... so i made some invisible text words....

 

you can get those spaces with <br/>

 

Kaptain, that is just making me go to the Next Line....... Not providing the facility to have a Space....

 

I make websites and the sentences require Sentences inside them......

eg

Hello how are you I am Fine.



But using Dreamweaver I CANT GET SPACES, it just lets me space 1 charecter, and thats it..... why cant i get many like word allows ? etc?

 

Use a table or:

Hello    etc

Code (markup):

HTML is not Word thank goodness.

 

because it's not proper, you should be using CSS for text spacing, alignment, and positioning

but you can always as Shannon said use the special character

 

BR (line break) tag, or style for increased spacing. I don't see Google penalizing you for your text, though -- it's not exactly if "0" is a valuable keyword.

You'll want to look at your page in Firefox -- the photo of "Jackie Watkins" is floating right on top of the text.

If you are using the design view feature of DW, it does allow spaces, just like any text editor, and it places the html for the space in the code. If you are using code view, you have to insert the html for space into it, as just using the space bar is not proper html

 

To get the SPACEBARS I have cheated......

Should I use this Code instead ??

Hello&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;etc

with &nbsp; as a space ??

 

http://www.w3.org and http://www.w3schools.com is all I have to say.

 

oy vay jackie....

 

there are other ways to create spaces.

 

oh man that so easy.... do this...

1st open DW then...

click Edit = Prefrence = Check " allow multipal consective spaces "

problem solved enjoy

 

you've already got another thread about this

 

you can wrap the text inside <pre> tags, ie <pre>hello how are you</pre> and it will show up exactly as you type it.

 

Conversely CTRL-SHIFT-SPACE inserts the &nbsp; code in design view

 

BINGO!

Also, if you are comfy with DW you should also get used to 'split screen' (code and design) so you can quickly edit code if need be.

I love DW, the only draw back is the more you use it the weaker your coding skills get, that's why I like split screen .

 

Thats a pretty poor excuse for invisible text. The correct coding for adding spaces into any client including dreamweaver is

Place that in your html code view, and then just copy paste it by however many times you want a space. This is presuming that you can't space it in the design view

However I do have a question that perhaps someone here has had personal experience with.

If you have A table which has say a blue background. And your text is white over that blue background. The main background of your page is just plain white.

Is google smart enough to pick up that the text is not invisible?

Has anyone else had any problems with this?

i actually only use dreamweaver for the preview, much easier than saving and reloading
