[Xerte] sub/super script?

[Paul Swanson]

I use <font color="red"><u>underlined red text</u></font> which seems to
work fine. It's not CSS, though. Have you tried creating a combined
style:

 

redBold {color: #ff0000; font-weight: bold;}

 

I learned something from you ... I didn't realize you could create your
own tags in that way. I was disappointed that the Flash player didn't
support the <span> tag, as that is an easy way to apply a style class.
Being able to create your own tag accomplishes much the same thing as
defining a class.

 

Cheers

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.
