use text-align: justify;
via css

[hpnadig]

didn't work.

[paki]

show me how youre using it
it works for me.

[hpnadig]

td.con { text-align:justify; }

[paki]

whats that .con? i dont get why youre putting thta there.. unless its a separate class and you want the attribute to be applied to that as well? put a space between td and .con.. or maybe try a comma separating the two, i forgot which works

[hpnadig]

con is a subclass ( or the one which comes under the general group of td in the heirarchy[correct me if I'm wrong here

[paki]

well ive never heard of subclasses, im fairly new to css myself

i would have just done it simply like
#text {
text-align: justify;
}

and then in body somewhere

<p id="text">your text here</p>

His CSS is correct. Are you using a WYSIWYG editor for the rest of the page?

no.


actually the css looks messed up 'cos I never tried to optimise it. whenever I needed new propertie and couldn't find one alreay defined, chances are that I've defined one again and used it...

need a bit of time to trim my stylesheet.. looking forward to doing that on next weekend.

But that's somthing out of topic.. I first saw justify being used in Dreamweaver.. ( this was years back) and used it in my old page. Now, I no longer use dreamwever and had completely forgotten about the property. recently, I found out while brwosing my site on IE ( I hardly use IE) that a few pages had awful text alignments! and those were 'cos I had used 'justify' for alignment...

for Netscape and Opera and Firbird, it works fine...

Since 'text-align' inherits, all block-level elements with "JUSTIFY" value inside the 'DIV' or 'P' or 'BODY' element with 'CLASS=center' will be centered. Note that alignments are relative to the width of the element, not the canvas.
