175.0. "<DATE> location on the title page" by JAWS::STRYKER (Stew Stryker) Tue Mar 31 1987 12:49
I can't seem to get the <DATE> of the title page placed properly.
I get the feeling that the problem is caused by my having three
line in the <AUTHOR> tag. I've tried it a bunch of different ways,
but I just can't seem to get it on a separate line in some reasonable
location on the page.
If I put <DATE> before <TITLE>, the date appears in the upper left
corner of the title page. If I put it after <TITLE>, it appears just
under the title (almost touching it, not so good looking). If I put it
after the <AUTHOR> line, it appears on the end of the third author
line.
To clarify the last sentence, an example is in order:
SOURCE:
<TITLE>(Fifty Ways to Leave Your Lover)
<AUTHOR>(Elizabeth Taylor\
15 Facelift Lane\
Hollywood, California)
<DATE>(April 1, 1987)
PRODUCT:
Fifty Ways to Leave Your Lover
Elizabeth Taylor
15 Facelift Lane
Hollywood, California April 1, 1987
That's my story, and I'm sticking to it. Any help would be
appreciated.
Thanks,
Stew

No, the problem is a change in <date> since Bl06. <date> used to
be a tag just for title pages in the GENERAL doctype. It is now
a 'global' tag which produces the current date, with no implied
formatting structure. You need to use <date> in some context,
for example:
<right_line>(<date>) or just <LINE>(<date>).
