minimum page width

Hi,

Another should-be-easy item. I need to set a minimum page width in 5.5. I’ve tried every thing I could think of.

BTW, 6 is out. We had so many bugs with the big corporate site that we couldn’t waste any more time chasing them.

I could think of the action called PageDiv Extended (on Actionsforge) that allows you to add attributes to the invisible one.

There add in the style dialog:

min-width: 980px

BTW:

It is not necessary to move a project from 5 to 6 cause 5 can do exactly the same things than 6 does. But please stop to call this bugs, cause I am more than convinced, that 99% of the “bugs” are internal structural or page (project) related things.

6 is externalizing code and has a reviewed master-child concept. Both can cause unexpected things - but that’s far off any bug.

6 is a huge step into building modern webpages and shows its strength building pages based on relative positioning - that’s all.

Cheers

I had to dig around, but the code has to go in the body style. I couldn’t find a way for it to work in the HTML Markup.

As for 6, I had a lot of problems that costs me a lot of time on the job, for one example, HTML5 animations (Hype) ran perfectly when I took a 5.5 document and up-converted it in 6 but I had a heck of a time getting them to work when placing them directly in 6. I encountered another user on the forum who had the same problem. There were other significant issues as well, plus a few minor ones (i.e., when you switch uploads between FTP and disk (and vide versa) it forgets the web address and you have to paste it back in.

No offense to 6 fans. I am a big fan of Freeway myself and have rated it highly in each of my reviews over the years.

But now, the bugs have names and SP towers can have a look in it or even we can test this in order to help to make the product better. This is much more helpful than simply call it anonymous: FW 6 is out.

Hype is ALWAYS a problem for lots of fw-users here and I guess there are couple of more lists in here with issues with it. The problem is, that I can’t judge what kind of troubles there are and what is causing misplacing or even function breakings but it should be noted once again:

Freeway is generating code so a browser has feed to display. With exactly this code examined, it is possible to judge - but not without.

Just to name some “problems” with HYPE:

Path(s) and/or misplaced Resources, misplaced/wrong Functions, no/wrong jQuery no-conflict scenario. It should be noted, that positioning of HYPE is mainly driven by external HYPE generated CSS.

So chances for “bugs” rapidly decreasing if it comes to the product. Just some of my cents (as experience of the last couple of moons I’m joining the community).

Cheers

Thomas

I could bet parts of my body, that the body TAG is for sure NOT the place to set a page min-width.

Please double-check if you find the attribute min-width.

Once you’ve found, please apologize - then I’ve to go back to school.

min-width in .body does the trick.

You certainly can. And I wouldn’t rely on W3 Schools to be authoritative about anything except how to get your pages high in the search engine results.
