[Pro] table with box model and webyep

Ok. Need some advice.

I’m working on a site for a cafe with some webyep items. I’ve been using the box model approach and now have a page where the client would like their full menu. I put the menu in an html box and have mostly styled it with some bulleted lists. Here’s the link to the page (note that this page does not have any webyep items at the moment (I have that on a MAMP setup)
[http://www.beanrunnercafe.com/test/beanrunnercafeme.html]

Anyway, in converting the menu page to a webyep item, I did run into some problems with maintaing the bulleted items (spacing mostly). Since the client wants to be able to change and add items and prices, I started to think it might be easier to put the whole menu in a table. Any recommendations/suggestions are appreciated. Will a table work ok in a box model setup?

Hi Jeffrery
why don’t you just style create the styles for the bulleted list and then uses a long text box then when you type in the bullets webyep will recognise it and add the styled bullets in for you.
to indicate that an item is a listed then all you would need to do is place a star in front of the text so this snippet would be what you would write in your example:

 * <BOLD The Exchanges> $7.99 reg. / $8.50 with bowl of soup (Add $0.50 for Triathlon
 ** <BOLD Exchange 1:> Soup with 1/2 salad or 1/2 sandwich
 ** <BOLD Exchange 2:> 1/2 salad and 1/2 sandwich

any problems let me know
all the best max

Thanks Max I’ll give that a try as well.

I was initially planning on creating css styles and using TinyMCE with a Rich Text Box (or actually did try that on my MAMP install). It worked pretty well, but I did end up with one sub-bullet after a main bullet that does not have the proper spacing (too tight to the line above).

Is there any advantage with using a long text box vs a rich text box?
