Hi,
orgmode.org is now really hosting the orgmode webpage (not just
redirecting to my University site.)
When I uploaded the site, a problem appeared: The homepage now
renders without any margins to the left and to the right.
Can anyone here figure out why that is?
Thanks.
- Carsten

Carsten,
I just loaded http://www.orgmode.org in firefox and IE6 and it showed
all right initially. After a little wile, though, the left and right
margins disappeared and the GoDaddy.com banner appeared on the top of
the page by means of the file a12.alphagodaddy.com_index.html. This
latter is the culprit as it starts with "<body style='MARGIN:0px;' >"
(after the opening html tag). I don't know how it gets loaded but it
probably is the price you pay for this free service.
Cheers,
Karel

Hi Karl, thanks. Yes, I guess this is the price - an I have no problem
with it. However, can I still enforce margins for "my" part? How?
Thanks.

If so, try redefining the style for the „body" element. If
necessary add „!important" so that your rule overrides others.
<style type="text/css">
body {margin: 5% !important;}
</style>
(Or margin-left: 5% !important; margin-right: 5% !important; )
To learn about !important and overriding rules look for „CSS
specifity" at the standard ot the web.
Other solutions:
- try the same thing with „padding" (that's like an internal margin
of an element)
- try changing the margins of the „html" tag
- hack: insert all the content on a <div> and apply styles there
Correct also the HTML errors shown by http://validator.w3.org/
(eg: <link> element should be closed, also <link />, ...).
That will be impossible since GoDaddy adds incorrect code to the
page (after </html>). If you really sent the XHTML as
application/xhtml+xml (which is the correct way), the page wouldn't
show. Sending it as text/html is also a hack. All are hacks...
Greetings,
Daniel

That did the trick, thanks a lot!
