Not sure what you mean by "structure". Can you elaborate?

For a 'newspaper like page', I would consider using module positions and
'structure'.  

 

For example what information do you actually want to display in each column,
such as, list of 'related items', images, etc...

Yes, you can add any valid HTML and CSS in the articles. Just toggle your
editor so that instead of showing
the ribbons associated with the text editor you are using are turned off,
and you will see just a plain boxed in area
where you can add html and css.   To create a newspaper style page, I
suggest using columns and floats to achieve
the desired effect.

Is there a way to add Divs to an article content?

Hello everyone;

 

So far I have been using div's to divide the page (article), I go to "Toggle
Source Code" and create my div's and style them and so far so good. Now I
would like to divide my page/article into what could best be described as a
"newspaper" page style. With div's that could be a bit of a nightmare for
me. Would tables be the best choice? And if so, would the html/css goddess
reprimand me? 

 

I am using JCE extended version, formatting tables with it is not the
easiest or prettiest thing around. Is there a table creating extension that
you could recommend? 

 

Also is there an extension for dividing the page newspaper style (not k2
please). It would be ideal if I could divide and style my "featured
Articles" page, but that maybe too much to ask. Yes I did look at the JED,
besides k2 I didn't find much. K2 is to complex and specific. I just want to
div and style my page. 

 

 

 

No, at this stage I don't want to fiddle with the Joomla code. Are there any
extensions out there that would accomplish the task?

 

 

 

Best regards,

 

Marcos Miranda
