The lines that weren't wrapping properly were still not wrapping properly. So then I tried it by changing the %page-width% (define %page-width% 5in) Once again the same lines refused to wrap properly. -- Sam Phillips <sam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> http://www.dasbistro.com Reno Nevada DSSSList info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/dsssl/dssslist
