Eliminating ??

Hi;

If I use the return key to move down the web page before pasting an object
in design, when I view my finished page I get "??" whereever a Charactor
Return was. How can I move down the page without getting the "??" in my
finished page? Is there another way to move down the page without pressing
return? Thanks for any help.

Pat.

Most designers use HTML tables or transparent GIF files
(spacers) to mark out white space. These approaches offer
finer control, and they work horizontally as well as
vertically.

Nevertheless, empty paragraphs (which you create by
pressing the return key) shouldn't appear in the browser
with qustion marks. Something else is going on. Can you
provide a URL?

Thanks for your time Jim. I am designing instructions for a software
application I wrote. Here is my code:
************************Snip
<HTML>

<head>
<TITLE> Personal Data Manager Instructions </TITLE>
<meta name="Microsoft Theme" content="sumipntg 011">
</head>

<body>

 Export Data

 ? 

<hr align="center">
 ? 
<table border="1" width="97%">
<tr>
<td width="57%" valign="top">
Here
you can back up Selected Records or All Records
to a Floppy Disk. You can also Export your Data
to a Palm Device or export it to Excel or
Outlook. After you send your taskings to
Outlook, You can then email out notifications of
the taskings automatically. You can also send
out Bulk Emails to the Unit, or groups in the
unit, like Plts, Enlisted, etc etc.
Click on one of the buttons for more
information.
</td>
<td width="43%">?</td>
</tr>
</table>

Normally I would recommend you do not post attachments to the newsgroup
- you should have posted your snippet from View Source in IE

The attachment shows you probably have a corrupt font, or theme (or bad font applied to a theme)
In your above posted snippet

 Export Data
 ? 
<hr align="center">
 ? 

And in your attachment


 Export Data
 ¡¡ 
<img src="sumhorsa.gif">
 ¡¡ 

Recommend running a repair on FP and also modifying your theme to use a different font (or different theme)

PS
Your page is missing a </body> tag before </html>

Thanks Stefan...I'll check out the fonts and theme. Also thaks for the
pointer on just adding the code. I'll ensure I do it that way next time.

Happy New Year
