[Pro] Some text flowing over, some not

When I look at this page on my computer it looks great. When I look at this page on my iPhone, the text is all over the place. The page http://serendipitydesignsbydiane.com/elfonasleddescri.html looks great on my iPhone and contains more text than the former page. What am I doing wrong?

I can see the problem and can even see it from the source-code view but I do hard in recommending.

It is how both text are treated. While “the elf” is proper wrapped in a paragraph, the “dancing” is not. It is flavored by a couple of extra stuff (span) with lots of different style-types that causes this text to be “out-of-the-float”.

So similar is not the same.

One thing you should basically do is to rush into your “styles” (edit → styles) and watch for a style called “p”. Add there all properties on how you want to look the “basic text” (such as style 15 or 16). Once done, select all your text that should have the “basic look” and remove all applied styles.

Once done, delete the styles 15 and 16 and if asked, substitute it with p if asked.

Each time you now enter new text, Freeway refers on this basic p style without any need of styling them via inspector.

You fiddled with the inch stuff adding extra styles there, correct? This shouldn’t be necessary.

Delete style16 and substitute this with p.

You should watch as well the structure of your URLs.

Making them more readable (and reasonable) such as:

she-who-is-description.html (or something like that).

But why does it work on all of the others, just not this one? I am super novice at this, so how do I substitute with p?

Have a look at the following screencast (which I should redo soon, making it way smaller and more efficient - gosh).

I’m pretty sure there is some useable stuff in:

Hmm - honestly I don’t know cause I often can’t imagine what happens (or happened) within the Freeway-files. I just compared the working and the not working pages and tried to figure out the differences.

While the working had a “plain text structure”, the not working had some stuff in (spans mostly) which are additional name styles. Both together seems to cause issues on mobile devices.

So all I wanted to have is a clear text-style structure with as less as possible additional styles. I know this is mostly not wanted by the FW users, but I really recommend (and will do in future) to start with the basic styles (p and H-Tags) and THEN with the first item on a page and not the other way round.

It seems to be really easier to herd cats these days than to adjust web design on several devices - an experience that I haven’t had (luckily) when I started doing web pages a couple of moons ago.
