Been using XSP since 2009 and I am very happy with it, it was the best money I ever spent.

I have one thing that maybe easy to change or not and that is with some colour choices of background the cursor becomes invisible because it blends in with the background colour making it extremely difficult to type. Now there may be an options to change the colour of the cursor, I just haven't found it yet.

However, if you are considering purchasing XSP my suggestion is go for it you will not regret it.

Oh and the people and help on this forum is invaluable.

Can you give us an example of what you mean. I've seen this with the fields in contact/opt-in forms and there is a workaround for that.

This is a site I am currently populating. Because the background colour I chose is basically the same colour as the cursor I cannot see where the cursor is on the page, even trying to place the cursor in one of the tables I wish to type in takes for ever. The solution of course would be an option to change the color of the cursor to white or some other colour which would contrast against the background.

Sorry Andrea I just tried to upload an image and received the following:
"Could not upload attachment to ./files/34628_76dfb3e24f8a3eb9e084aec978344788."

However, I am sure you understand what I am saying this is the site I am working on you can see the colour http://www.bcbusinessdirectory.net/automotive.html

Yes, I see. You could just change the background colour for the particular panel while you work on the site. In all my 12 years of Web design I've never actually run into this before. One recommendation is that you change the Main Panel colour to white and use black text. It's much, much easier for your visitors to read. Virtually every professional site uses a white or light background with black text.

Understood Andrea, I just wanted something different you know variety so people don't get the impression there is no flexibility. But your comments are well taken I think I will simple change the background while, or when I am working.

Here is another little thing I have run into and its never happened before so just wondering if it is a bug in the program or if there is an easy fix.

I am just working on a website I own http://www.bouncerent.com/used.html

I am using two cells across the page the total table width is 630 and so I set ALL my cells at 315 wide. The cells are set to "wrap" and "true" I am assuming that means the text will automatically wrap.

On the first table I put in everything was fine as I typed in the right cell the text would drop down to the next line one it reached the end of the line or 315. However on the second table I installed the text will not drop down to the next line and it makes the cell expand larger than 315 while at the same time it decreases the size of the cell to the left.

I have checked all the settings but cannot figure why its doing it. I even tried shutting down the program and reopening it.

Any suggestions from members appreciated.

I don't see the problem you're having when I check in IE and Chrome. Exactly which table is having the problem?
