Re: [css-d] Drupal - clearing floats

2009-09-16 Thread Ben Sommerville
Hi Chris,

I think you are better off tweaking the settings on the WYSWYIG editor to 
make the html it produces easier to style.  (e.g. turn off creation of
p  br elements, restrict use of style attribute, etc).

I've got some experience with Drupal so feel free to email me off list
 I can help you with the setup.


cheers,
Ben Sommerville

 Hi,
 
 I am working on this website: http://forge.redrunner.co.uk/?q=node/2
 (specifically this page).
 It is built via Drupal, which is OK- we have what we want, however
 because it is CMS we are worried that when the client uses the WYSIWYG
 editor for changing the main content the styling will be lost. That
 link shows the main content as I put it in via HTML and CSS. I have
 created another page http://forge.redrunner.co.uk/?q=node/10 and tried
 to replicate the other page but using the WYSIWYG editor.
 
 It's a nightmare! The only reason it looks slightly OK is because we
 have used tables! SHREAK! I don't want to do that but I can't see
 another way around clearing the floats. This editor creates a p
 everytime the user hits enter, it creates a br / every time the user
 hits shift and enter. Is there any effective way I can get any of
 those tags to clear floats via CSS?
 
 e.g.
 br {clear:both; }
 
 p{clear: both;} However if I do this and there is more than one
 paragraph associated to an image then it will mess it up.
 
 maybe I can add something to the H3, img tags?
 
 WHATDYATHINK?
 
 Thanks, Chris
