KompoZer User Guide — 17 December 2007 Based on version 0.7.10 9

this to a shorter, all lower case, name (but you don't

have to). You will find the file extension completed as

‘html’ you may prefer to, and may alter it to “htm”.

Note If you have hidden extensions for file types

this becomes unavailable. Hide or view exten-

sions is controlled in Windows by Control Panel

> Folder options > View then scroll down and

clear ‘Hide extensions for known file types’.

After you edit files you need to re-save periodically.

Click the ‘Save’ button.

Note KompoZer includes a small red warning

icon in the page tab to indicate if a page has not

been saved.

There is nothing mysterious about the files. The

curious may open the file using any text editor e.g.

Windows notepad. What you will see will look just like

the HTML Source code you've been looking at in

'Source' view. This shows that the source is just a

simple text document.

3.3.3 Printing pages

The ‘Print’ button allows you to print the

current page to a printer. This prints the page

view and not the source code.

3.4 Working with text

3.4.1 Text on a page

3.4.1.1 Introduction

Text typed directly onto the KompoZer page de-

faults to appearing in the format for the ‘Body’ ele-

ment. HTML defines a small number of elements

specifically for text and it is usually preferable to use

these.

To format text in a standard element format select

the text (it is actually necessary simply to click any-

where within the block of text) and click the first

drop-down box on the format toolbar. This offers a

selection of standard text formats. Paragraph is the

most appropriate for general text.

Once formatted as a paragraph, when typing in a

text area, use of the 'enter' key starts a new block of

text i.e. a paragraph. To start a new line within the

current paragraph press Shift+Enter; this generates a

line break.

Note This is the default action and can be

altered. (See Toolbars section 9.3)

Other standard text formats are Heading formats

from Heading 1, the largest (for the main heading), to

Heading 6, the smallest (for the least significant).

Browsers generally render headings in bold type.

Text can be edited in any of the viewing modes and

KompoZer responds to all the normal windows short-

cut commands.

3.4.1.2 Block or Inline

The elements just de-

scribed mark out ‘blocks’

of text.

Blocks usually begin

on a new line.

Blocks have gaps

above and below con-

trolled by margins

(see section 4.2.1.4).

Vertical margins ‘collapse’ i.e. The larger margin is

applied the smaller is ignored.

Within blocks it is possible to mark out sections of

‘inline’ text.

Inline text does not usually start a new line.

3.4.2 Formatting text

Text can be formatted in a number of ways using a

format toolbar. The changes listed in the table can be

applied (hover over a tool to discover what it does).

Choose a font *

Choose text colour * Choose background colour *

Choose highlight colour *

Make text smaller * Make text larger *

Embolden * Italicise * Underline *

Format as a numbered list Format as a bulleted list

Align left Align Centre Align right Justify

Indent text Outdent text

Emphasise * Strongly emphasise *

Note 1 For the options marked with an asterisk

select an inline section of text. This allows you

to have a few words in a paragraph of a different

size etc. (When you do this, if you use the ‘HTML

Tags’ view, you will see the start of the change

marked with a ‘Span’ marker.)

Note 2 ‘Choose background color’ sets the col-

our for the background of the current block. If

‘Use CSS Styles …’ is not checked it has no effect.

Note 3 The emphasis button will result in itali-

cised text with most browsers and the strong

emphasis button in bold text.

Warning. When using Strict Doctype check 'Use

CSS styles instead of HTML elements and at-

tributes' in Tools > Options > General to ensure

availability of all options.

3.4.3 Positioning text

Generally the position of text is determined by the

fact that one block flows on after the previous one etc.

The space between blocks is determined by the

browser. Through the use of styles (see section 4.2.1.4)

these settings can be altered.

Paragraph and heading blocks stretch from one

side of the screen to the other. This a very elegant way

of operating. Try resizing the KompoZer window. Until

it becomes so narrow that nothing can fit, the text

reformats so that it still fits – though narrower it

becomes longer. It is fundamental to the way the web

operates that it is designed for information transmis-

sion and not presentation. Web design tools allow us

Tip: The outline of each

block of text can be re-

vealed by selecting View >

Block outline. The dimen-

sions of each block in pixels

are shown on the rulers at

the top and side of the page.

Tip: Text to be formatted may be selected in one of

several ways.

Simply place the cursor anywhere in a block. Where the

formatting desired can only apply to a complete block this

is sufficient.

Double-click within a block to select a word.

Triple click within a block to select a line of text.

Drag across a section of text to highlight and select that

section only.

In HTML Tags view press the Control key while clicking

on the tag for the block to select the complete block.

Using the status bar. See section 3.17
