Default Re: Wrapping text in a Cell


I'm new to FP2003 and my question is, when I fill a cell with text, can I then insert a text box and have the text in the cell wrap around that text box? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Will text only wrap around an inserted image?

I would avoid the text box as it may not display well in browsers other than IE, however you can
insert a nested table, that you can set the float value which will then allow text to wrap around
it.

Thank you for your reply, however, I tried your suggestion and when I inserted a table (into the cell) the text wrapped, but it created a space below the line of text where inserted, it created a blank line where the next line of text should have been. Essentially the text skipped a line after the table was inserted. I can't type text on that blank line. Can you help me insert a table into a cell and not get the blank line too?
Thank you again, your help is greatly appreciated. I look forward to your reply.

How did the page look when you use File Menu | Preview in Browser? Can you post this page on the
Internet where I can see what you have done?

It looks the same as I described, whether it's in Design, or Preview, or Preview in Browser
Please explain how I could post this for your viewing, and I will give it a try

If you have established a web hosting account, then you could publish it to host server and then
provide us with a URL to the specific page.

Here is example (Paragraph 3) of a nested table with text wrapping around the table (image):
