What determines the right margin for text? I copied
notepad text into FP 2002 page and the text is not
wrapping how I would like it, but it extends out way to
the right.

<body style="text-align: left; line-height: 150%; margin-
left: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-top: 0">

Thanks for any suggestions.

Susan,

If you are placing text within a table, the right margin
will be at the right edge of the table.

If you do not have a container for the text, it will run
to the far right edge of the page.

If you want to control the right margin of the page you
would specify the size in the margin tags:
rightmargin="0" - marginwidth="0"

If you want to control the right margin of the text, you
may want to format your paragraph with a style tag.
Highlight your paragraph and go to Format > Paragraph,
now select the indentation for "BeforeText" and "After
Text"

There are a variety of ways to control the text, but
without knowing how much text you want to format and how
you want it to wrap , it's hard to say.

Hope it helps,
JDR
 
Thanks, I found out that there is a difference on the
Insert File between "One Formatted Paragraph" and
a "Normal Paragraph". I ought to find out how the HTML
differs now between the two.
