HTML running off screen and covering some labels

[jarvis24]

See www.empirisoft.com/Support/showthread.php?p=700 (esp the section on added parameters).

But short answer is: To avoid the html running off the right side of the screen, you can add a width parameter to the background field like this:

 
myhtml.htm (w.9)

And the html background will hide some objects on the screen--usually just labels. You can avoid this by setting an explicit height for the html like this:

 
myhtml.htm (w.9,h.2)

The latter will set a window for the html that is 90% of the screen width and 20% of its height.

See attached sample.

For the first questionnaire item I sent you, labelled "ses instructions", for the parameter that you put on it (w.9), the wording is still running off the page. I've been on vacation so I haven't been able to check it until now.

The other parameters work for the other files I sent you!

Out of curiosity, try w500 or something like that instead of w.9 and see if that changes anything.

I tried w500 and it pushed to left too much, so I played with it and w600 works perfectly! Also, I am using the 2006 version of media lab. Thanks for all of your help!
