Franklin P Patchey

Can anyone tell me why on my webpage:

theorangesite.mysite.freeserve.com

on path:

theorangesite.mysite.freeserve.com/miscellaneous/001/003.htm

why I cannot get the "copyright" info at the bottom of the page to align to
the left?? like the other pages.

Because your markup is invalid and nonsensical.

(1) It doesn't appear to be a quote, so you shouldn't use the <blockquote>
element.

(2) The <font> tag is deprecated and should not be used

(3) There is no, and never has been, and align attribute for <font>

You probably want something like:

<p style="text-align: left; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS', cursive;
font-size: 80%;">&copy; Franklin P Patchey &amp; Tony Rager.</p>

.... except you should use an external, linked style sheet to make the code
easier to maintain, and that you shouldn't need to fiddle with the
text-align as left is the default for paragraphs.

You should also learn to love http://validator.w3.org/

Hi Franklin,

This is just an answer your question, and not get involved in anything else,
that can be left to others.

This is the markup you have on the page layout you say is wanted
the next step...</B></A><BR></P><BR><BR><BR></DIV>
<blockquote><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" size=1>©2003 Franklin P Patchey &
Tony Rager.</FONT></blockquote></P>

This is the markup on the page you don't want - note the </DIV> is missing
below
<BR></BR>
<blockquote><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" size=1 align="left">©2003 Franklin P
Patchey & Tony Rager.</FONT></blockquote></P>
