Alignment Comment Tag (click here to go to the index)
This is what a comment tag looks like in Composer:
Comment Tag
When you open this page in Composer, you will see a tag that looks like the image above right here:
When I started to use tables to format the content of web pages I found out that the table did not always line up correctly, leaving a one or two line gap at the top of a browser window. I discovered that by putting any comment tag at the top of a page that is formatted as a table, it will line up properly. So, I insert this tag at the top of all pages in which I use a table to format the text.

The code for any comment tag looks like this:

<!--  -->
You can insert any text within the dashes in the center of the tag, and it won't show up on your page. Many people use comment tags to make notes about the page or to label parts of a page. The tag at the top of this page looks like this:
<!-- this tag makes it so that the top of the page aligns properly . . . I don't know why this works . . . go figure! -->
I also put one of these tags just above the table that the index is in to make it line up properly.

You can put any message you want in there, or leave it blank. If someone finds out why this works, please let me know! (ssharp@korrnet.org - Or, if you don't have email use the Comment Form.)

To insert a comment into your page place the cursor where you want the comment to be, then click Insert and select HTML Tag... A window will pop up like this:

Inserting a CommentTag
The window will be blank when it opens, but all you have to do is type "<!-- " then whatever comment you want, followed by "-->."
