And my english is very good... but sometimes I don't explain myself very well!
My apologies if I didn't explain myself very well. Firstly, though, thanks for the tip re display:none for my <h1> tags! I should have thought of that myself, but for some reason I thought I wasn't allowed to put anything else on the page other than what was in those <svg> tags (don't ask me why I thought that -- I think that was an assumption I made based on something funny happening when I did that on pages with full-size images).
In any case, though, while I was really happy with the way those SVG title pages
looked when they were done, they were also a lot more complicated to edit -- and that's in addition to my not being able to put the <h1> tags in them (which you resolved now, of course).
So for both those reasons, I was thinking of trying what you'd said was "better" anyway, i.e. not doing it the SVG way, and instead doing it just with CSS (background-image), using/modifying the code you'd posted here earlier.
I couldn't seem to get it to work with this image (see attachment), though. Basically -- if at all possible -- I was hoping to have this image as my full-page background image, and then my chapter title + flower ornament + author tags (<h1> + <img> + <h2>) overtop that. And while I'm at it, if these latter could have margins set as a
percentage, that would be great, as I could easily have all the text stay within the "frame" in the background image, regardless of orientation or size.
All of this has been really great, Rubén! I don't quite understand that SVG code, but I know how to do that now (thanks to you, including your last reply). It'd be nice to know/understand the other CSS way, too -- then I'd have two options to choose from for now and any future projects.
PS...
I just did the calculations, and if it were possible to make all the margins 10%, that would keep the text within the "frame" of the background image (more exactly, 9% for the left/right margins and 6% for the top/bottom would allow the text right up to the edge of the "frame", if the background image is indeed 100% full-page).
