[Xerte] sub/super script?

[Dave Burnett]

Thanks Paul.

Another CSS for dummies question.

It seems if I nest selectors, it creates a line feed:

<ss16_text>The number of protons in the nucleus determines the <red><B>atomic number</B></red> and name of an element. <BR><BR>Since there are over 100 known elements, chemists have developed a system by which each element is represented by a symbol. </ss16_text>

Appears as 

The number of protons in the nucleus determines the atomic number
and name of an element.

If I take out the <red> selector, it acts as expected.

I haven’t tried this myself, but there is an apparent
solution. There is a company that has developed both superscript and a
subscript fonts. Not free, but pretty cheap ($9.90 US for each). You would have
to embed the fonts in Xerte, since the end user wouldn’t normally have
them on their system.

 

The website is http://superscriptfont.com/

 

There are examples of how you would use them on their website.

 

Personally, I’ve only needed to use the trademark and registered
trademark symbols, and I’ve just used a smaller font size and let it be
in-line with the rest of the text.

Don’t get me started on sub / super script.

 

The Flash Player does not support it and it is a real big
problem when you work for University.

Sorry, pretty weak when it comes to html/css/dhtml



I've tried:

<sup>m</sup> 

<span style="vertical-align: super;">m</span>

and vertical-align: super as a selector in the CSS.



No joy.
