Hi.
This new version of HTML Editor does not recognized Scandinavian letters Ö or Ä. Just showing blocks in web-pages. How should I correct this problem?
Best regards

If you set the character set to "iso-8859-1", the Scandinavian characters will be properly shown. If you run the Code Cleaner, make sure you check the box for character encoding "Latin-1" in the Document tab, or the char set will change back to default, which I believe is UTF-1.
According to specs, UTF-1 should represent the Scandinavian, as well as special Portuguese, French, etc. characters, but this has never worked consistently for me. I don't believe that it is an issue with version or Build of the HTLM editor.
Good luck!

Yeah, I found out this new version automatically adds line META content="text/html; charset=unicode" http-equiv=Content-Type which old version didn't. Since I use WYSIWYG, I have to change (remove) it manually in Code Mode.
Thanks!

Just downloaded Build 305 which is my first update after buying CoffeeCup a few weeks ago. Do I install over previous version or uninstall it first

Although you should be able to just install the new version directly over the old one, I always suggest uninstalling any previous versions first. If you don't uninstall, then there's always a slight chance that something doesn't get overwritten and the software could act funny.

Would you please tell me how to uninstall the program. All I get is the "cannot find install.log" message?

Hi, I understand that The HTML Editor uses CSS menu design versus DHTML as was the case with the Free Menu Builder that Coffeecup produces. One of the really cool features that one could build with DHTML was the ability to place a functional menu system on top of an image (.jpg in my case).

I haven't been able to recreate this with the CSS menu design and am using build 305. The best I've been able to do so far is butt the menu up against the .jpg image and it loses a lot of 'cool' from where it was. Can you give me some pointers?

thanks,
Chris

are you trying to use the image as the background to your menu?

My computer died and I had to go with a new laptop, Windows 7, 64 bit. I downloaded HTML Editor and find it is different than the one I "lost". There used to be a Visual Designer next to the Code Designer in the Editor. Where did that go ?

Thank you,
Anna
