    Question:
    Help,

    I'm coding a Form and I have a combination of text fields and textareas. I am making all the fields on my form use the font Verdana. The textarea boxes seem to ignore the font face="Verdana".

    As you type into them they all use type out in a font like ?Courier? or Times New Roman? Why is this?

    Thanks for your attention to this small detail that is driving me crazy.

    Answer:
    You can use a style sheet to format the fonts in your forms like this:

    input, textarea {
    font-family: arial, verdana, sans-serif;
    font-size: 12px;
    background-color: #EEEEEE;
    margin: 0px;
    padding: 0px;
    }

    Of course, change or edit the font-family, font-size, etc. as you wish. Thanks,
    Thanks

    Question:
    Dear Dr. Website:
    I have created a page that has a table in it with many rows. I am using VBScript to populate the table rows with data from queries.

    My question is this, how can I place a line, to seperate each row of data in the table. I don't want to use a border because then there is a box around the table as well.

    I want the line to appear just between the rows.
    Thank you so much.

    Answer:
    It's been a while since I dabbled in VB, but you should be able to write this to the page for a line break: Chr(13)
    Thanks,

    Question:
    Dear Dr. Website:
    How do I take a small "snapshot" of a website home page for the purpose of promoting on my own web design home page?

    Answer:
    If you're using MS Windows, maximize your browser window, and get rid of the toolbars, bookmark links, etc. and with your home page in the browser, hit the "Print Screen" key on your keyboard.

    Now open your favorite image editor, and paste the screen shot image onto a new document/image.

    Shrink the size of it until it's the size you're after and viola, you're done. Also, if you're not using Windows, most image editors have a screen capture facility, so you can grab the shot that way as well.
    Thanks
