Fixing position of nav bar on web page

[Richard Johnson]

Hello again

This time hopefully an easier question.

I am re-arranging my problemmatic web pages.

When I try to add a simple 4 button Nav Bar to the bottom of the page, I
position it where I want it on the page in the PUB 2007 web publication but
it won't allow me to anchor it as either "exact" or "inline"

So....

When I do a web page preview, it appears a long way from the bottom of the
web page text (well below it)

I can manually move it by guesswork to place it on top of text within
publisher and it appears OK.... however this seems incredibly clumsy and I am
guessing will give different results in different browsers....

How do I anchor it simply and reliably page by page so it always appears
correctly relative to the end of content on each page (all pages have varying
length content)

thank you

Richard

I have been looking at your pub file and noticed that the font sizes are not
all web browser compatible.

There are some discussions around WYSIWYG on this forum.

I have experimented with the font size and paragraph settings for text and
have resolved a majority of the problems that I had which are similar to
what you are seeing ( I call it runaway text ). I have been using only
integer sizes and changed the line spacing to 1 and set the after paragraph
setting to 0. If you are unfamiliar with this area, highlight some text and
select <format <paragraph. Experiment with these setting and see if that
helps.

Then when I position the text boxes in publisher they appear nearly exactly
the same in the web browser. I still have some small differences but they
are manageable.

I forgot to add:

If this method works, create a style. When you select a text box with text,
click on the created style and the text box will be formatted for you. You
can have multiple styles.
