Im designing a website for someone at the moment and need to show it to them later today.

One of the things they asked me was that they wanted the text in "block" meaning that the text needs to be in line both ends....... hmmmmm.... its hard to explain....

eg.

IIIIII
IIIIII
IIIIII
IIIIII

not

III
IIIII
IIII
IIIII

Does that make sense? I doubt it!

Anyway, any help would be appreciated.

I know its probably a really easy task, but I just dont know how to do it! :-)

Um, god, I don't know if this is possible, or if it is I've not come across it.
The only way I can think of is using the method Newpapers use:

|| ||
|||||
|||||
| |||

Where they add an extra space or two to line up the begining and the end of each row of Text. Sorry I can't help you more, but like I said, I'm not sure if there is a way in HTML. You'd need to use the
 Tags though, as these keep your own formating and spacing, as normal Web Pages make sure you have only one space, for example:


|||||||
| |||||
||||| |
|||||||
|||||||
||| |||


Hope that makes sence, and helps you out in someway, or at least till someone who knows if there is a better way comes along.

Thanks for the help mate, but I think there must be an easier way than that.

Ive tried out the
 tags but it will take me years to change all the pages like that and it doesnt look that effective either.

But thanks anyway......

yeah but I don't think web designing progs use that, the
 thing is probably what your looking for + it's easier than Justifing your text. 
if your stuck for ideas, why not do it manually? :)
good luck.

I think I may have the answer, is your text in a table?

If your writing is in a table, put this code into your table tag.

style='text-align:justify'

I think this should work.
