Custom signatures/text wraping
How can I make a signature like this?



Is there another site besides danasoft? Also, how do I "text wrap" and "space" with dreamweaver? Text wrap like in microsoft word with the words around an image. And space like this, having more than 1 space, dreamweaver can only have 1 space. Please let me know ASAP, I need to finish a site by friday.

Thanks

Those are server scripts running in either asp or php, you need a server that allows those to be displayed. They are each different, yet produce the same content.
Create an image, then place it as a background in a table.
In the table you would add the code in the areas you wanted to say something like (PHP example)
Code:
echo "$REMOTE_ADDR"; 
?> 
<?php echo $REMOTE_ADDR; ?> 
<? 
$hst = $_SERVER["HTTP_HOST"]; 
$uri = $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"]; 
$rmt = $_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"]; 
$br = $_SERVER["HTTP_USER_AGENT"]; 
echo "Your IP address is : $rmt \n
\n The page you requested was: $uri \n
\n The browser you are using is $br"; 
?>

Now for your space and text wrap questions, the trick is not to rely too heavily on WYSIWYG editors, use the view code and design options, then add these to your page:

For spaces, you can add as many
Code:
&nbsp;
to the html area of the document you want (personally I would use a blank image or spacer for these extended spaces).

Text wrapping is simple too.
Code:
<img src="lala.jpg" style="float:left">Type all your content here, it will float beside the text and you will not have to look at the unsightly text areas not ligning up with the images you added on the page.

Or this:
<img src="lala.jpg" style="float:right">In eu erat. Aenean libero magna, dictum at, venenatis nec, lacinia nec, eros. Cras id nunc. Donec ut elit. Ut vel elit non mi condimentum nonummy. Morbi pulvinar, est ac vehicula tristique, nibh quam porttitor lacus, ut luctus leo quam non dolor. Ut fringilla, eros eget mattis dictum, justo erat imperdiet metus, ac tempor lorem wisi eget tellus. Mauris vel neque. Nam et wisi vitae mi interdum laoreet. Etiam tempus, urna non fermentum mollis, lectus massa interdum nisl, at aliquet sapien purus et ipsum. Mauris gravida erat. Pellentesque vestibulum risus. Aliquam erat volutpat.
With a little tweaking, you can place margins of a couple pixels so that the images won't touch the words:
Code:
For #1:
<img src="lala.jpg" style="float:left; margin-right:10px; margin-bottom: 10px">

For #2"
<img src="lala.jpg" style="float:right; margin-left:10px; margin-bottom: 10px">
