Hi All...

When I started with webpage design, I used FP...big mistake. The HTML syntax is a mess on most of my pages. Is there a way to fix these problems using another software program?

Thanks so much for any suggestions!

Blessings,
audstune

audstune,

Can you post some of the HTML or describe specifcally what it is doing? Also, what version of FP are you using?

Clean up your Web pages with HTML TIDY [tidy.sourceforge.net]
...automatically ... tidy up sloppy editing into nicely layed out markup... HTML TIDY is a free utility ... works great on the atrociously hard to read markup generated by specialized HTML editors and conversion tools, and can help you identify where you need to pay further attention on making your pages more accessible to people with disabilities

Make sure that you document is made from headings, paragraphs, lists, tables, forms, and images, and use CSS to style those elements.

Use class names for exceptions to the default styling, such as for the navigation list, or the footer pargraph, etc.

Get rid of extraneous meta tags in the page header. You'll need the meta charset and meta language, a title tag, and a meta description, as well as links to CSS and JS files.

In the body, get rid of all font tags, and all inline style code. Get rid of all FP specific code. There is a massive amount of bloat that can be thrown away.
