Guys,
Please forgive the ramblings of a html newbie. Using 1.9e.
I have been attempting to get a ext script to work (nothing complicated) and
although logically it works fine there are some cosmetics that confuse me.
When I look at the html source that is generated I see the following
....
....
<CENTER><TABLE ALIGN=CENTER BORDER=0>
<TR><TH><FONT SIZE=+1 COLOR="#FFFFCC" FACE="Tahoma, Arial, Helvetica">
europa - meta<BR><HR WIDTH=60%></TH>
<TR><TD><H3>
green Tue Dec 7 16:11:39 GMT 2004 <P><DIV ALIGN="CENTER"><HR>
</H3><PRE>
<B>============== MetaDatabases ==============</B>
<HR></DIV>
<PRE>
flags first blk b....... etc etc
Please notice that the </H3><PRE> tags come after the <P><DIV
ALIGN="CENTER"><HR> tags. This actually causes a problem as I get an extra line
feed on the
output (nothing much I grant you but damn irritating never the less). The reason
for the confusion is that the <P><DIV ALIGN="CENTER"><HR> tags are part of the
ext script and the </H3><PRE> tags aren't. I am confused as to how they are
getting out of sync as when I hardwire the html like this
....
....
<CENTER><TABLE ALIGN=CENTER BORDER=0>
<TR><TH><FONT SIZE=+1 COLOR="#FFFFCC" FACE="Tahoma, Arial, Helvetica">
europa - meta<BR><HR WIDTH=60%></TH>
<TR><TD><H3>
green Tue Dec 7 16:11:39 GMT 2004
</H3><PRE>
<P><DIV ALIGN="CENTER"><HR>
<B>============== MetaDatabases ==============</B>
<HR></DIV>
<PRE>
flags first blk b....... etc etc
everything works fine.
I thought it might be something to do with the script itself but after some
checking I have noticed that this actually happens a lot. Check out the
ftp/telnet/ssh
etc etc checks and you will see the same behaviour. Whereas if you look at the
html check that has no problem.
Anyone know why this works in this way, it kinda looks wrong to me.
Apologies in advance if I have missed something galringly obvious. :-)
Many Thanks
Dave
