Hi, I add simple web animations to my pages that show up in preview but when site is published they don't show. How can I fix this? I have Xara Web Designer Premium
The text is also over formatted - every word has its own <span> ... </span> setting - see image below, there should be one <Span>...</Span> per line at most.
How did you enter the text, was this copy and pasted from a word document?
Thanks for having a look and sending the info. I am just using the normal text box to add text so am not sure why it is being weird like that! Is there a way I can check the code in Web designer? I am not a coder and only have basic knowledge of coding but at least I could check it and see if anything looks crazy.
I am not sure with the fb and youtube things why they are not moving though. Do I have to add a mouse over? Sorry for being so coding illiterate. That's why I purchased Web designer so I could just drag n drop :)
omg i just checked the other pages and all the text seems to be glitching out like that! I viewed page source. Any tips on how to fix all that in Web designer?
just to add sorry, the animations show in the preview window fine! maybe something is glitching with publishing?
I don't know if you can see this link, but this is the preview link where I can see the animations. I had a look at page source and it still looks wrong though.
Is the URL for your own computer, that is the address the browser uses to view a webpage/site on the computer.

Which template did you start with?
For a large amount of text I would prepare in Notepad then copy and paste into the text box. Some users prepare the text in Word however this can cause issues when copy and pasting into a text box as it takes the word formatting with it. A way round this is to paste from Word into Notepad, it strips the word formatting and then copy the Notepad version into the text box.
I prefer to use Notepad ++ instead of Notepad, it also strips the formatting from Word and also when you open an HTML page it formats it to make it more legible indenting and colour coding.

If there is an animation or popup that is suppose to play or open when the mouse is pointing to the image then a mouse over event is the one you need.
Hi! Wanted to let you know I tracked down the issue (with your help). The text has some weird styling issue so I have had to go back and remove all that. And the animations weren't showing as they were not in the mouseover layer! As soon as I put that right they all showed up. Thanks again
