    Default Text box not displaying properly

    I want to display the text box as it shows in NOF: with a darker background, as shown in the screen capture.

    After publishing (tried HTML 4, currently HTML 5 Dynamic) the text displays, but the background does not change from the background of the larger text area/payout region. See index page here: here

    Any ideas on how to fix this?

    your website is infected by Microsoft Word formatting code, see below, delete the code by clicking the layout or materborder html button

    Note: whenever you copy and paste from Word to Nof, use paste special, plain text, this will strip the word formatting code automatically, or copy paste via notepad

    Thanks. I did delete that whole code under Style as you had shown it and re-uploaded my file. No change in the display of the text box, though.

    delete the code by clicking the html button on the layout property palette, you missed lots

    </script>
    <LINK HREF="file:///C:\Users\Holger\AppData\Local\Temp\msohtmlclip1\01 \clip_filelist.xml" REL="File-List">

    table.MsoNormalTable

    mso-style-noshow:yes;
    mso-style-priority:99;

    mso-para-margin-bottom:2.0pt;
    mso-para-margin-left:0in;
    line-height:115%;
    mso-pagination:widow-orphan;
    font-size:11.0pt;
    font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
    mso-ascii-font-family:Calibri;
    mso-ascii-theme-font:minor-latin;
    mso-hansi-font-family:Calibri;
    mso-hansi-theme-font:minor-latin;}
    </STYLE>
    <!-- [endif] -->

    also, you misssed various word meta tags

    <META NAME="ProgId" CONTENT="Word.Document">
    <META NAME="Generator" CONTENT="Microsoft Word 15">
    <META NAME="Originator" CONTENT="Microsoft Word 15">

    Good to know I could get rid of all that junk. I have tried to be more careful about doing the text only pasting, but all that stuff was probably leftover from previous paste processes.

    Anyway, I did all of what you suggested, but the text box still does not display properly. I even added a border to it, but the border does not display at all.

    I'm clealy no programmer, but when I look at the object HTML, I'm not surprised it doesn't display right:

    <P>Narcissism:<SPAN STYLE="background-color: rgb(255,204,0);"></SPAN> </P>
    <P><SPAN STYLE="font-size: 16px;">Extreme selfishness, with a grandiose view of one’s own talents and a craving for admiration</SPAN></P>
    <P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0px;">Oxford English Dictionary</P>


    Ithink my next step will be to delete the text boxes and place new ones.

    you are using the wrong charset for HTML5 <META CHARSET="ISO-8859-1">

    you should be using UDF8

    also, make sure you select all text inside the textbox prior to formatting, see attached video
