Getting NVU ready to use: // (Pictured above) // You must make sure that NVU is not using CSS for its page formatting. Cascading Style Sheets or CSS is a way to format a complete website or many pages in a website by having the pages reference a single file for its formatting. The HTML used by Google Place Marks doesn’t use CSS. Disable CSS in NVU by “Click” on the menu “Tools, Preferences”. // (Pictured Below) // Then make sure the line “Use CSS Styles instead of HTML elements and attributes” is unchecked. Then Click “OK”.
